Royal Assassin (The Farseer Trilogy Book 2) by Robin Hobb

 My Rating: 4.8


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. This book focuses on the marriage of Prince Verity to Kettricken.


The more I read of this series, the more I want to read....it is popcorn! I am falling in love with several characters but especially Fitz, Verity and Burich. This is a light easy read that immerses you in the world of Buckeep and makes you want to stay there.

    1. I never thought I would be into fantasy, let alone a series but this has really grabbed me. I will be interested as to what you think of it.

    2. LOL, I just looked and I read this a few years ago and I did not enjoy BUT I think I am going to dip my toe into book 2 and see if I get into it. Many people I know who are not fantasy readers love these. Also, my reading taste has changed. Keep you posted. Do you think audio would be good?

  2. Yes, I can see this being good on audio. Give it a couple of chapters and if it doesn't grab you, toast it! Life is too short and it just may not be your thing. ♥
