The Ship of Magic by Robin Hobb
Its the first in a trilogy called the liveship traders. Its fantasy tale set in the same universe as her previous trilogy "The farseer trilogy". It has multiple protagonists as it follows the story of Althia a girl whose been disinherited from her families ship (which should have been hers), Wintrow a priest whose being unwillingly forced to live on said ship by his father away from his monestary and the pirate captain Kennit who wants to steal the ship.
The ship is the centre of the narrative because its a "liveship", which is a magical ship thats nearly impervious to harm, sentient and faster then any normal ship.
Its very well written, nice and long and an exciting read, but be in it for the long haul as its the first of a trilogy.
