This series definitly wasn't that great (good idea - assasin, average execution). I'll take Brust's world and char.s any day over Hobbs (though yes it is very YIN in style.)
The series was almost entirly on char. development, and the char.s were not that intresting.
The "world" simply wasn't there, only a couple of places w/ any detail
The magical aspect of the "world" was poorly fleshed out.
The ending "revelation" was VERY weak.
I did enjoy the fact that the main-char. didn't go uber. I also enjoyed the first book and its Life-at-the-Keep, as well as assasin development for the fitz's.
All in all, average (at least compared to the books I've read).
