The much-anticipated final conclusion to the Fitz and The Fool trilogy.
Prince FitzChivalry Farseer’s daughter Bee was violently abducted from Withywoods by Servants of the Four in their search for the Unexpected Son, foretold to wield great power. With Fitz in pursuit, the Servants fled through a Skill-pillar, leaving no trace. It seems certain that they and their young hostage have perished in the Skill-river.
Clerres, where White Prophets were trained by the Servants to set the world on a better path, has been corrupted by greed. Fitz is determined to reach the city and take vengeance on the Four, not only for the loss of Bee but also for their torture of the Fool. Accompanied by FitzVigilant, son of the assassin Chade, Chade’s protégé Spark and the stableboy Perseverance, Bee's only friend, their journey will take them from the Elderling city of Kelsingra, down the perilous Rain Wild River, and on to the Pirate Isles.
Their mission for revenge will become a voyage of discovery, as well as of reunions, transformations and heartrending shocks. Startling answers to old mysteries are revealed. What became of the liveships Paragon and Vivacia and their crews? What is the origin of the Others and their eerie beach? How are liveships and dragons connected?
But Fitz and his followers are not the only ones with a deadly grudge against the Four. An ancient wrong will bring them unlikely and dangerous allies in their quest. And if the corrupt society of Clerres is to be brought down, Fitz and the Fool will have to make a series of profound and fateful sacrifices.
ASSASSIN’S FATE is a magnificent tour de force and with it Robin Hobb demonstrates yet again that she is the reigning queen of epic fantasy.

Jeg er indtaget i hele hendes univers. Det er som at blive transporteret til en anden dimension.

Fantastisk serie - har været igennem alle 9 Fritz & the Fool bøger og det har været en kæmpe oplevelse. De sidste bøger lidt langsomme men serien beholder høje niveau for karaktererne og slutningen er ... uundgåelig😉

Kære Fitz. Tak for et fantastisk eventyr! Jeg håber en dag at kunne vende tilbage til The Six Dutchies og jage gennem skoven med dig og Nighteyes.

Spændende bogserie. Næsten lige så god som Farseer trilogien.

Et uundgåeligt farvel til Fitz, The Fool, Nighteyes og Bee. Nogle passager var for lange, men det lykkes Robin Hobb at gøre et umuligt farvel til at bære, med en smuk og meningfuld slutning.

Fantastisk afslutning på den sidste trilogi i realm of the elderlings universet. Medmindre man selvfølgelig vil fortsætte med nogen af de stadig stærke karakterer. Jeg håber, selvom nogen ville mene det er at malke succesen, så er jeg vild med historien, og Robin Hobbs evne til at skrive er uovertruffen.

Now I’ve read all 13 books and it’s a fitting ending, although I wish it wasn’t a goodbye to all these beloved characters ❤️❤️❤️❤️
