Assassin’s Apprentice by Robin Hobb

The Farseer Trilogy · Book 1 of 3

”Fantasy as it ought to be written.” – George R.R. Martin

The kingdom of the Six Duchies stands on the brink of civil war. When news breaks that the crown prince has fathered a bastard son and is shamed into abdication, the child is left with nothing but a name.

His name is Fitz. And he is despised. Raised in the castle stables. Comforted only by the king’s fool, the ragged children of the lower city, and an unusual affinity with animals. Trained, in secret, as an assassin.

To be useful to the crown, Fitz must become something dangerous. But his tutor – allied to a rival political faction – is determined to see him discredited. Or dead. And as the kingdom’s enemies close in, Fitz must survive long enough to discover whether the destiny whispered about him is real.

”I have never loved a fictional character the way I love Fitz. Robin Hobb is a genius.”
”The book that got me into fantasy. I’ve read it four times and it only gets better.”
”Quietly devastating, deeply human, and utterly unforgettable. A masterpiece.”
