They quicken only when three family members from successive generations have died upon their deck. But only a liveship can negotiate the perilous waters of the Rain Wild River, and liveships are hard to come by. Wizardwood, the most precious commodity in the world, comes only from the Rain Wilds. ![]() Now, having finished the book, I have to say it was absolutely amazing!
