Why read it?
1 author picked Assassin's Quest as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Quest is in the name, and does it ever live up to it! As the culmination of The Farseer Trilogy, it does the previous books justice. The journey is arduous, full of twists and turns, and the reader feels every wound Fitz suffers. Yet as in every good quest, in the end, he achieves what he aims to do – though not in the way he expects, and at an unimaginable cost. This is Hobb at her finest, and I cannot recommend it highly enough.
From J.D.L.'s list on fantasy that makes you want to go on an adventure.
