Assassin's Apprentice starts its second installment here! Spring comes to the Six Duchies, and with it, the fearsome menace of the Red- Ship Raiders. As the danger creeps ever closer to Buckkeep, Fitz is given his first true mission from Chade, to infiltrate the estate of a nobleman and look for any signs of treason. But an assassin's job is far from simple, and the fate of the realm may depend on if Fitz can take a life, or spare one instead.
It's the Realm of the Elderlings. I'm going to love it. Everything is done so well, and since it's a comic, we don't get the slow pacing that made The Assassin's Apprentice my least favorite book of all Fitz books. We just get to focus on character development and action, which makes it even better!
