Soldier Son Trilogy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Soldier Son Trilogy is a fantasy novel series by Robin Hobb. Set in a new world unrelated to her previous trilogies, the Soldier Son Trilogy follows the life of Nevare Burvelle, the second son of a newly elevated Lord of the Kingdom of Gernia, and his preparation for and education at the King's Cavalla Academy.
The career of a person living in Gernia is heavily influenced by their parentage. For the most part, sons follow their father's career. However, for the sons of a noble, things are different. The eldest son inherits his father's title, the second son serves as an officer in the army, the third son enters priesthood, whilst the fourth becomes an artisan. The first book (Shaman's Crossing) implies that this allocation continues for further sons.
