Royal Assassin

Author: Robin Hobb

Fitz, the royal bastard, returns to Buckkeep a changed man. Haunted by his near-death experience, he grapples with newfound powers and old loyalties. As political intrigue swirls around him, Fitz must navigate treacherous waters, balancing his duties as assassin with his growing bond to the mysterious Fool. Hobb’s masterful prose brings this world to life, weaving a tale of magic, betrayal, and the weight of destiny. A gripping sequel that left me breathless and eager for more.

When you cut pieces out of the truth to avoid looking like a fool, you end up sounding like a moron instead.
