“Fantasy as it ought to be written . . . Robin Hobb’s books are diamonds in a sea of zircons.”—George R. R. Martin
Fitz has barely survived his first hazardous mission as king’s assassin. Battered and bitter, he vows to abandon his oath to King Shrewd, remaining in the distant mountains. But love and events of terrible urgency draw him back to the court at Buckkeep, and into the deadly intrigues of the royal family.
Renewing their vicious attacks on the coast, the Red-Ship Raiders leave burned-out villages and demented victims in their wake. The kingdom is also under assault from within, as treachery threatens the throne of the ailing king. In this time of great danger, the fate of the kingdom may rest in Fitz’s hands—and his role in its salvation may require the ultimate sacrifice.
Praise for Robin Hobb and Royal Assassin
“[Robin] Hobb continues to revitalize a genre that often seems all too generic, making it new in ways that range from the subtle to the shocking.” —Locus
“[ Royal Assassin] reaches astonishing new heights. . . . The Farseer saga is destined for greatness—a must-read for every devotee of epic fantasy.” —Sense of Wonder

A five star book following two five star books. My expectations for this were high, and they were met! I love Fitz finally choosing himself, even if he will ever have the mindset of a kingsman, whether he likes it or not. I don’t even know what to say, my mind still hasn’t caught up. An absolutely incredible book, Robin Hobb is a master of her craft, and I cannot wait to continue further down the path of Realm of the Elderlings.
Best One of the Trilogy

The mainplot unfolds slowly, but for me it worked and the end was definitely worth the wait.
Would also make a good TV-Show.
Honestly can´t think of anything I disliked about the book.
Great read, will definitely read again.
