30 Days Book Challenge Day 15: Favorite male character
I always have a huge soft spot for cut-out-from-the-world characters. The one who stood in the center of every important action, but oddly untouched by it. The one who was always surrounded by people, but lived with deeply ingrained loneliness. The one with burning desire to forge an important connection, but never knew the right word or action to actually achieve it.
So, it comes as no surprise that FitzChivalry Farseer from Robin Hobb’s fictional world The Realm of the Elderling was the one that occupied the number 1 spot for my fave male character. The fact that his story spanned the length of several decades, starting from his turbulent childhood, to his secretive years as an emotionally stunted adult, and through his bittersweet late years only cemented my love for him. He felt inexplicably like home, familiar as someone you grew up together with. A character that stayed too close to heart, at times both painful and beloved.
