Books by Robin Hobb
Royal Assassin
by Robin Hobb
· published 1996 · read 2016-12-05
★★★★☆
Second volume, and a lot happens (well, not that much per page, but fun nonetheless): Fitz gains confidence, but loses his girl, his King, his King-in-Waiting, his Queen-in-Waiting, and ultimately his life (-ish, no huge cliffhanger).
Assassin’s Apprentice
by Robin Hobb
· published 1995 · read 2016-10-11
★★★★☆
Now this was a fantasy novel I really enjoyed. I went in with no expectations at all, randomly chose it from my Kindle, and oh boy, was I in for a ride.
Assassin’s Quest
by Robin Hobb
· published 1997 · read 2016-12-07
★★★☆☆
Concluding the first part of the trilogy trilogy, I still liked it. Yes, it's slowly paced high fantasy, yes, the protagonist is not a Mary Sue at all (whiny and annoying, more like), yes, the conclusion is a bit deus-ex-machina - I still liked it. It's nice fantasy. It takes you to Buckkeep and to the Mountain Kingdom and all the places Fitz and the wolf visit.
