The Vestritt family's liveship, Vivacia, has been taken by Kennit, an ambitious pirate. Captain Haven is a prisoner; his son Wintrow, who bears the Vestritt blood, finds himself competing with Kennit for Vivacia's love as she becomes a pirate ship. Althea Vestritt, in training to become Vivacia's captain, arrives home to discover her beloved ship lost. Brashen Trell, her old friend and shipmate, proposes that they sail to Vivacia's rescue in the liveship Paragon, who has lost two previous crews and is believed mad. Malta, Althea's niece, seeks help from her suitor, the Rain Wild Trader Reyn, whose family is the Vestritt's major creditor. Meanwhile, the sea serpents who follow sailing ships struggle to remember their history and return to their place of transformation.
Each volume in this series is a major undertaking, but those who enjoy original, epic fantasy, characters who grow and change believably, and fine writing will not want to miss The Liveship Traders. --Nona Vero -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine vergriffene oder nicht verfügbare Ausgabe dieses Titels.

Kundenrezensionen
Ich habe selten erlebt, dass sich Charaktere so sehr veraendern wie in diesem Buch( z.B. Malta) und selten so lange an einem Stueck gelesen. Dies ist eine Geschichte, die mit unendlichen Facetten und Ideen einen hervoragenden Auftakt weiterfuehrt und auf ein Feuerwerk von einem Ende hinweist(ich habe den dritten Teil gelesen, er ist es wirklich wert!!).
Ein kleiner Tipp nur: Lest es in Englisch! Erstmal ist es... nun sagen wir "wahrer" in der Originalsprache und zweitens hat sich der Verlag der deutschen Uebersetzung wieder die Sache mit dem unendlichen Aufsplitten der Buecher geleistet (was einige sicher vom Rad der Zeit kennen!) und ich wuerde vermuten, dass man mit den englischen Ausgaben billiger (und weniger entnervt) wegkommt!
In the first book, Robin Hoob piled so many dreadful things on the shoulders of all the members of the Vestrit family, while in the second installment they have to come to terms with their new situations and try to make the best out of it. What I probably like most about this trilogy is that even though some of the people (like Kyle or Davad Restart) are incredibly selfish, and even mean, and you really love to hate them, Robin Hobb manages to characterize these antagonists so well that you kind of understand why they are acting the way they do, and, ultimately, you don't end up hating them (...well, maybe the Satrap...) ;-)
Even the scenes with the serpents - which I found rather confusing in the first book (I have to admit, I always hoped that those scenes were as short as possible) - suddenly turn out to be vital for the whole story.
Anyway, there's enough romance, suspense and action for quite a few entertaining hours, trust me!
I noted that an earlier reviewer found this installment weaker than first; however I feel this to be the strongest volume of the series (I have obtained and read the concluding novel). In terms of the interweaving of the multiple plot lines, "Mad Ship" closes much that was left unresolved in "Ship of Magic," and propels the plot along at a much brisker pace, successfully setting up anticipation for the final resolution to come in "Ship of Destiny." It seems to me more tightly written, both in terms of character development and story line. Some appear to have found the plot overly complex, yet I would counter that the complexity and multiple plotlines are one of the books strengths, and that the absence of simplistic and largely linear storylines, as can be found in works by more conventional authors such as Eddings, Brooks, MacCaffrey, or Feist, creates a narrative that offers the reader far greater dimension and interest than a work that plods along the path of a single character. This, I suppose, is a matter of taste, but for me the more character perspectives the better, as long as they are individually and fully developed, which certainly is the case here. This offers the reader a narrative of greater depth and richness. Hobb's storyline here, with its multi-dimensional threads of plot, never strays, evolving over time into a cohesive yet multifaceted entity as wonderfully rendered as 'Maulkin's Tangle.'
I was somewhat baffled by an earlier criticism regarding a lack of characterization: One of Hobb's undeniable strengths are her characterizations; few other authors are so thorough in creating unique and individual characters whose responses are neither black nor white. And it is hard to find more credible female characters. Finally, in response to another reader, while I am one who continues to read Jordan with enjoyment, I believe the Hobb is shown here to be the better writer, at least in terms of the maturity of her characterizations and the originality of her world, and certainly his equal when it comes to descriptive narrative. While Hobb may not offer the epic scope of Jordan's vision, it waits to be seen whether the greater strength lies with her more tightly envisioned approach to storytelling.
