Review of "Assassin's Quest (The Farseer Trilogy, Book 3)" on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Wow, wow, wow. I just finished reading Royal Assassin and Assassin's Quest back to back and it was a thrilling roller roaster ride. In this third book in the trilogy, Fitz gets up to his usual stuff; trouble. He gets into it, and a lot.
Robin Hobb has a way with words, and an uncanny way of grabbing hold of loose ends scattered around all three books and tidy them up nicely. This was a satisfying conclusion to the trilogy. There are a few unanswered questions, though. And I hope to find some answers in one of the other trilogies set in this world. Oh, and speaking of the world.. Now that I've gotten very accustomed to this world, one that Hobb has built very meticulously, I'm not quite ready to leave. So for me, it's off to Bingtown, and the Liveship Traders.
Oh, and ferrets are awesome.
