Book Description
Young Fitz, the illegitimate son of the noble Prince Chivalry, is ignored by all royalty except the devious King Shrewd, who has had him tutored him in the dark arts of the assassin. He has barely survived his first, soul-shattering mission, and returns to the court where he is thrown headfirst into the tumult of royal life. With the King near death, and Fitz's only ally off on a seemingly hopeless quest, the throne itself is threatened. Meanwhile, the treacherous Red Ship Raiders have renewed their attacks on the Six Duchies, slaughtering the inhabitants of entire seaside towns.

On the edge of my seat.......2007-02-20
Again, as with Assassin's Apprentice, I was held fast by a story that constantly kept me guessing as to what was going to happen next. This series is just stunning in the ability to hold my attention and keep me wondering all day exactly where Robin Hobb is taking her characters. Every time I think I know, the outcome is exactly the opposite of what I had predicted. Sometimes it is difficult, even sad, to read this book because you desperately want something good, something he deserves to happen to FitzChivalry, and it almost never does. I'm very eager to begin the third installment in the series.
Will leave you craving for Book III.......2007-02-06
Middle books of trilogies are supposed to be worse than either book one or three but that is so not true for this book. Political drama, adventure and court politics twirl in the Kingdom of Six Duchies where an ailing King is watching his sons combat one another for the throne, or so it seems.
The villain in the form of Regal is simply hateful and that is exactly the image of him that Hobb wants conveyed; there are times when he is a bit scary (because the reader would be reading from the perspective of Fitz, the hero) but that horror is so human that it bites into you for you to feel. It is the ugliness of a ruthless heart that unfolds itself and creates a solid impression on the mind of the reader.
Once again, credit goes to Hobb for a) Excellent characters which leave nothing to desire, b) a page-turning storyline and c) and end that will leave you gasping for the third book. For me, these characteristics of the book put Hobb in the same category as George RR Martin.
HIGHLY recommended.
Brilliance part II.......2006-12-29
This is the second installment of the Farseer Trilogy by Robin Hobb. In this installment we find FitzChivalry, [...] son of an ex heir to the throne and king's assassin, growing up. He has become an accomplished young man with the burden of many responsibilities. The six duchies that are Fitz' home have been under furious and relentless attacks by the Red raider ships who wreak havoc on the coastline murdering, burning villages and "forging" others by through an unknown process turn people into uncaring savages bent on destruction and death.
King Shrewd is in ill health and King in waiting Verity goes off on a quest to find the mysterious elderlings, of which ancient bards's tells proclaim can save the realm. This leaves Fitz at Buckkeep with little between he and the spiteful and treacherous Prince Regal. FitzChivalry soon finds that he may be little more then a fly caught in an ever growing web of intrigue.
Robin Hobbs' continues this captivating tale and plundering the depths of Fitzchivalry's psyche: His thoughts, his motivations, and his emotions, as well as adding layers and texture to the world she has created. While the book will serve to draw one in deeper and deeper into fitz' story, it does have its moments where it can be a bit overly descriptive and plodding.
This book is a second entry in the farseer trilogy and it should be recognized as such. This trilogy is not really three seperate books in as much as it is one very long book, so one should not expect there to be big climax's at the end, but instead part of the tale that builds the momentum to the climax at the end.
This trilogy is excellent and this book is excellent. Don't let yourself miss out on something well worth your time and effort!
...kill to live [no spoilers].......2006-12-15
"The Farseer: Royal Assassin" continues "The Farseer Trilogy" as FitzChivalry explains his activities using his developing skills as an assassin and in both the Skill and Wit from a first person point of view. Being educated and working alongside the master assassin uncovers more insight into Chade's past.
King Shrewd entrusts political assignments similar to the stereotypical mobster, in a subtle and (resembling his namesake) shrewd fashion asking for resolutions to specific dilemmas. Assassinations can be avoided also with the proper advice or suitable scheme. In the meantime FitzChivalry struggles with his emotions towards childhood friend Molly. Chade, Burrich, and the King's Fool remain refreshing support characters in addition to the unexpected King-in-Waiting Verity. Wide ranges of female characters interact but without the braid tugging or whining found in other series. A couple exciting events at sea and a powerful scene at a funeral pyre identify the amazing talent of the author.
The creative plot becomes darker when Red-Ship Raiders and resulting Forged ones generate difficulties by becoming more aggressive during periods of internal strife. Strangely FitzChivalry does not intuitively observe his surrounding and solve problems like in the previous novel. Nevertheless, the book has an intense and unanticipated end.
The storyline for the most part presents respectable affection between individuals and animals but maintains the cunning of politics to be acceptable for young readers. The many people can be confusing with the odd names. A more detailed map of the significant terrains and comprehensive appendix would have been useful.
I highly recommend this series to any fan of the fantasy genre.
Thank you.
Not bad for a follow up........2006-08-17
I was very suprised at how much I liked the first book, and was eagerly anticipating reading this one. I was not overwhelmed with its greatness, but neither was I let down at the direction the story took. As with the first one, the characters are very interesting, and the plot isnt "good guy always wins" style, wich I find boring. After 'Assasins Apprentice' I find it hard to believe anyone is doubting to buy this one, but if you are, than have no fear, it will not dissapoint.
The only thing different about this from the first book, is that while the first book was only 435 pages packed full of plot and written at a fast pace, this one is around 675 pages and slower paced. The story seems to drag toward the middle of the book. I would rather it had been full of plot and dialouge and been shorter, than have it longer and slower. As far as fantasy novels go in general 700 pages is still not long I suppose.
Either way, it is a good read, and an excellent series thus far. I highly recommend it.

Got under my skin.......2007-09-30
As others have said, it's hard to go wrong with a story about the tossed-away bastard son of royalty who is taken under the wing of an assassin. It's inherently compelling. And this book is really well written, or at least, to me it is -- the style is very clear and fast-moving. Once I started reading, I couldn't put it down, and couldn't wait to hear what happened next to our hero.
Pleasant Surprise.......2007-09-14
I'm actually still reading this book, though I am very nearly finished. I, like many others, am growing frustrated waiting for the next installment of Song of Ice and Fire, and thus am sampling a vast assortment of other fantasy fiction while I wait. I won't review other novels with in this review but I will say only that I have found many lacking, even very popular ones. That said this book surprised me. I guess that I was just expecting less from it, probably because of the title. I think of 'Assasins' as being cliche with in this genre of literature. Also the paperback copy that I have is from Europe, Bulgaria specifically, though it is in English. The cover is not the simple and ambiguous one of this paperback copy but rather one that is almost embarrassing to hold while I'm on the train, or at work. It looks like a comic book. This cover is much better. I don't know how the whole series will be, but this first installment is really good and I recommend it for those of you waiting around for GRRM to give us the next installment in his five star series. At least I know that I won't have to wait for the next installment of this series. I give this four and a half stars, no forget it I'll give it Five. I'm being too stingy these days.
Outstanding...Great....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2007-08-26
These books are the best. The characters are so defined that it's almost like you've known them your entire life. They are so complex and so interesting that I found it very hard to put the book down for long periods of time.
As fantasy books go... this series has everything:
magic (two types actually)
talking animals (sorta)
a noble king
a usurping prince (I'm not sure if usurping is a real word)
and to top it all off... DRAGONS! (sorry...I love dragons)
You cannot pass up The Farseer Trilogy.
More a childrens tale.......2007-08-04
I was looking for something more suited for an adult. Something along the lines of the RA Salvatore or Jordan's Wheel of time. I only made it half through the book before I looked for somethng else.
Great read! Pick this one up..........2007-07-23
This is the first book I've read by Robin Hobb and having finished it, I anxiously look forward to reading more!
Mrs. Hobb manages what few authors can, in that she has created a story in which all the important elements are firing on all cylinders. You don't have to compromise character to get plot or world building in favor of a skilled and cohesive writing style. Assassin's Apprentice covers all the bases.
I won't cover the contents of the story here as you can read them for yourself in the blurb, but I will say that it is beautifully executed and draws you into the world in a way that few other fantasy books do. Each of the main characters is engaging and interesting and each engenders concern for their respective well-being.
More than that, I was extremely pleased with the intrigue and political power-play that theme this story, and I was impressed by the author's ability to take me down what I though was one road, only to reveal it to be another later in the story (this is particularly prevalent in the closing chapters of the book).
If I were pressed for the one thing I would change about this story it would be that I'd like to see the main character, Fitz, in fewer black and white type situations and faced with more shades of grey. Granted there were times when this was the case, but for the most part the dilemma's surrounding Fitz's occupation as an assassin were easily decided and left little room for doubt.
All in all, if you are looking for a great story, great characters, and an overall feeling of maturity and intelligence, this is a great book for you. I highly recommend Assassin's Apprentice

Book Description
From an extraordinary new voice in fantasy comes the stunning conclusion to the Farseer trilogy, as FitzChivalry confronts his destiny as the catalyst who holds the fate of the kingdom of the Six Duchies...and the world itself.
King Shrewd is dead at the hands of his son Regal. As is Fitz--or so his enemies and friends believe. But with the help of his allies and his beast magic, he emerges from the grave, deeply scarred in body and soul. The kingdom also teeters toward ruin: Regal has plundered and abandoned the capital, while the rightful heir, Prince Verity, is lost to his mad quest--perhaps to death. Only Verity's return--or the heir his princess carries--can save the Six Duchies.
But Fitz will not wait. Driven by loss and bitter memories, he undertakes a quest: to kill Regal. The journey casts him into deep waters, as he discovers wild currents of magic within him--currents that will either drown him or make him something more than he was....

Finished the series reasonably well.......2007-07-16
I've developed a habit of late that when I finish a book, I immediately read the reader reviews on both the UK and US incarnations of Amazon. Usually, I go to the 1 and 2 star reviews and see how many people disliked it. Rarely do I agree with all of them, and this book is no exception. Some of the criticisms are valid, but others seem merely spiteful.
The world of the Elderlings is one of the more original worlds I have encounted. In fact, I think the only series more original in my mind is the Axis Trilogy by Sara Douglass.
The most frequent criticism I read about this book is the speed at which it wrapped up. Some call it a Deus Ex Machina, others say Hobb merely ran out of words. I tend to disagree on both counts. I feel that the story, for Fitz at least, ended when the dragons fought of the Skill coteries. The Cleansing of the Six Duchies was not witnessed by Fizt directly (he was still in the mountains), so from a first person perspective it doesn't make sense for him to give an overly detailed account. And that's how it came across to me - his conclusion was the summary of the details Fitz picked up in the six years of his travels back to Buck. So for me, the style of the ending made perfect sense.
What holds this book back from a better rating for me is the treatment of Fitz. For crying out loud, the poor guy has literally given his life, love and soul for his king and queen. And yet people seem to feel nothing but anger, disappointment and disdain when he wants to take a time out and live his (second?) life for himself. In most people's eyes he is a failure. How many other characters can be said to have given as much as Fitz throughout the entire trilogy, except maybe Verity? Not even the Fool sacrifices as much. This for me was a real down note. If he'd maybe given all his memories of Molly to Verity-as-Dragon, he could have lived something akin to a happy life with Starling. But he held on to Molly's memory, and thus was further denied happiness. Fitz is truly one of the most tragic figures I have ever encountered in the ~300 books that I own. Except maybe Faraday from the Axis trilogy. I think she dies more times than Fitz, and far more gruesomly too...
Good reading, good book but not perfect!.......2007-05-04
This I think was the expected ending to the series - not sure if I've just read too many fantasy novels now but I could see what was going to happen pages before it did! That's not to knock the book - it was good, and hard to put down (a sure sign of a winner) but maybe it was a bit too drawn out. There was a point at which the words seemed to be just to fill a quota rather than tell a story.
There is an especially nagging tendency for Hobb to repeat/summarise events at the start of each section of these novels using 1, 2 or even 3 paragraphs - though it is nice enough as a refresher I found it got very tedious by the second novel! Still a great trilogy and this was a good if a bit melancholy ending! 4 stars!
Dead stall..........2007-04-08
Warning spoilers...
In the worst installment of a bad series, Fitzchivalry wont die. Perhaps the most interesting plot point of this whole contrived series is wasted entirely. Fitz, who died, and rose again has his potentially interesting ordeal descrobed in perhaps the most boring way possible. I supposed his dead body was infused with both wolf personality and human for a while (I guess souls mix when they are contained in a tiny brain), and of course the seizures. Seizures trouble Fitz for a while, as long as they are convenient to the plot, and then, of course, they totally vanish. While I found it really interesting that Fitz used to be dead, and the ramifications of that, we find that there are no ramifications whatsoever, except for a brief period of eliminate-the-wolf-behavior rehab. I mean, he was reanimated after a period of time, but that's no big deal I guess.
Robin Hobb is such a good story teller, but she is horrible at plot. Except in the Liveship traders series, but she must have written that one entirely differently, because you can't tell that this is the same author. What she is good at is writing loveable characters, and slowly feeding you tidbits of knowledge about interesting things as the characters "learn" about them. In other words she can "feed the fire" of the story well to keep interest.
But that doesn't mean she does it consistently, and this book is a great example of how even Hobb can utterly fail.
Robin relys solely on you LOVING the characters (which I feel she herself does) and she allows that to distract you from reasonable pacing. This book starts out slow, then begins the ending phase of the master plot, and slowly slowly slowly panders through that and then ends in a rush. Not to mention the fact that she knows nothing about plausibility. This whole series is based on a character that is as loveable as your little brother, yet supposedly kills without compunction. You know, an assassin.
This series asks people a simple question. How would you describe an assassin? Prior to reading this series you might say ruthless, cold, cruel, at best disaffected and callous. Crafty certainly. After reading this book, you would say, kind, affectionate, and loves dogs? Add to that loyal to himself first, good natured, well liked, and an advisor to royalty? So is Robin Hobb rethinking the role of an assassin? No, you can't do that. An assassin is an assassin. You can't change that FACT. No, she's creating a hero who was trained as an assassin, but who only functions as an assassin very very very few times at all, since that is a nasty business. As kind and good natured as Fitz is, he never once questions the morality of killing someone because he was told in the weighty manner such a question deserves. He never is actually put to any test. So, Robin creates a hero, calls him an assassin, and swings the plot around to have him doing everying imaginable EXCEPT functioning as a cold-hearted killer. He's a spy, a soldier, a telepathy partner, a wolf-buddy, and for some reason everyone just thinks he ought to be the hero. When everything comes together, everyone just says Fitz, be the hero. For no good reason at all (because you have telepathy does that make you the guy to go to?). [...]
Perhaps Robin thought the weirdness of the ending scenes would add a sort of tension, and of course, they were being persued, and so I guess that added drama. But of course, the main threat, the "forged ones" were not really a threat anymore, but of course, you still have to resolve that issue, and was neatly done in the end. But I felt the whole story, the drama of the "forged ones" really wasn't so dramatic, and I just don't get what caused them to behave just like they did. On a fantasy scale, it was new, but not very interesting. Robin does much better with dragons in the Liveship traders, and these dragons are just stupid. And Verity-as-dragon is perhaps the dumbest of all. Over all a slow build up for an overall letdown.
If I began Robin Hobb with this series, I would have never read her again. I am forcing myself to finish the Tawny man series now, because I WANT to like her stuff. But I don't know if I will EVER find enough time to finish that sleeper series.
Overall, try Ship of Magic, unless you are already invested in this, and have to have closure.
What happened to the editor?.......2007-03-10
The first Farseer book impressed me with its great writing and interesting characters. The second book, though not as great, was still a solid sequel. This third Farseer book is a mess (see Kaymin's comments). The 757 page book (paperback version) should have been edited to fewer than 500 pages. A few of the ill-considered, disjointed plot lines also should have encountered the delete key.
What could not be repaired are some of the idiotic key elements such as the fact that no one remembered that the ancient race who helped the citizens of Buck were actually dragons that exist as stone statues until imbued with the memories, souls, and lives of multiple humans. What the heck? And somehow, the protagonist, FitzChivalry, continues to make the same stupid mistakes he did as a teenager and still manages to survive. Of the main characters, only his wit-bonded wolf made reliably sensible decisions.
Given the flaws described above, I am astonished by the many five star reviews of this book. I believe that fans of the first two books were overly generous to this one.
excellent series.......2007-02-08
The final book in the Farseer Trilogy provides an excellent finish to a wonderful series. The build up to a dramatic climax is true to the best fantasy traditions. Many of the unanswered questions raised in the first two books of the series are left unresolved until the conclusion of the story creating a page turning frenzy.
One criticism is the obvious lead into other series by leaving certain matters hanging. This is no real criticism, however, as it just means that I get to read more books by this excellent author.

Good Read.......2005-09-13
This is the first Warhammer 40k book I have read. While I'm told there are others that are better, I did find this a worthy read. It's a must read for those interested in the Eldar. Though there are some very interesting isights into Eldar culture and history this book does nothing to solve the mystery of the Eldar. Oh, and the ending! I don't want to ruin it for you, but it's a shocker, and it definetly does prove that the Eldar are every bit the advanced, sometimes arrogant, mysterious beings the Imperium believes them to be.
Anxiously awaiting a sequel.
Great 40K novel.......2003-07-31
I can't understand what the reviewer below, who is an Eldar player, didn't have enough of in this novel; but for me who am not an Eldar player, I found plenty to love. Fast-paced action, a demon prince, an female Eldar warrior and a Farseer who seemed (at least to me) to be major players in the story as well as a battle in a mysterious dead city on an Eldar home world. The chapter about the Navigator's journey into the warp is fantastic, as well as all the background info about Eldar history. Good stuff if you want my opinion. In fact it is near to being my favorite of the 12 Warhammer novels I've read so far.
great read.......2002-07-17
William King does it again. Although this book isn't as action packed as his Gotrek & Felix novels, it is still an excellent book which will keep you interested till the end,which incidentally has a twist.
Image craft.......2002-07-16
This was an exsellent novel, the pictures painted by King come to life. All the characters are led down paths to a briliant conclusion involving.
I can see how Eldar players may be dissapointed, there role in the novel is distant. This works only to serve the Eldar justice, the race is writen in the Warhammer world as distant and elusive.
Overall a well craft book with well rounded and interesting characters.
With a title like Farseer, an Eldar novel...........2002-05-29
...I would have expected more Eldar. Bland descriptions, bland characters, bland story. If it hadn't been set in the Warhammer world, I would have given it 1 star.
Being an Eldar 40K player, I was hoping for more Eldar, and more of a look into their complex culture.
Nothing really happened in the first 250 pages, and the novel is only 289 pages long! Probably the only interesting character in the novel was the ship's navigator, and his big action sequence wasn't even in the book! Just an afterthought 2 pages before the end with an "oh yeah, and he won, too."
I was dying to read this book, and I expected so much more from William King. I wanted to give it a much higher recommendation, but I can't...
