Do you read?

Wow. I'm glad I read this, I've all but forgotten about my book that I was supposed to be readin. Good book, The Tawny Man by Robin Hobb.

the whole series is written in first person. It's about a man who grows up learning how to use a magic called 'Skill'. He's torchered in order for him to fall into it. However his skill is tainted by the 'Wit' a type of beast magic that lets him bond with animals.

it gets really complicated from there... lol, you'd have to read the book.
