Part two of Assassin's Apprentice, the first book in Robin Hobb's bestselling epic fantasy Farseer Trilogy, brought to life in comics form.
In the second installment of Assassin's Apprentice, Fitz is given a mission to infiltrate a nobleman's estate for signs of treason, the kingdom is plagued by Red-Ship Raiders, and the fate of the realm hinges on Fitz's choices. Tensions rise, and a determined stranger's arrival adds to the uncertainty. When King Shrewd decides that Fitz must learn The Skill, the harsh training of the Skillmaster Galen will bring Fritz to a breaking point. Fitz's journey of resilience and self-doubt takes an emotional toll, while Burrich and Molly offer support.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
'Hobb is one of the great modern fantasy writers ... what makes her novels as addictive as morphine is not just their imaginative brilliance but the way her characters are compromised and manipulated by politics.'
The Times
'In today's crowded fantasy market Robin Hobb's books are like diamonds in a sea of zircons'
George R.R. Martin
'Hobb is superb' Conn Iggulden
'Hobb is a remarkable storyteller' Guardian
'This is a historical novel with a sly touch of magic. The first in the Farseer trilogy, this book will get new readers hooked on a series that recalls HBO's Game of Thrones and The Lord of the Rings' Telegraph
