Why this book?: The ending of Royal Assassin just ruined me, and I needed to read this book. But, the summary fills me with dread. Not sure I want this to happen quite yet!
After barely surviving his first mission, Fitz returns to Buckkeep, reluctant to continue his work as an assassin. Somehow, he manages to slip out of doing more murders, but as long as he works against the Red Ship Raiders. As tension within in the castle rises, Fitz realizes that he’s the only one with the skill and knowledge to stop a brewing plot of treachery.
Why this book?: I really liked the first book, and wanted to jump directly into this one!.
FitzChivalry is the bastard son of Prince Chivalry Farseer. An outcast in his own home, King Shrewd finally sees value in the young boy-to be trained as an assassin.

Why this book?: My friend found this series a while ago, and begged me to start it along with her. I’m a huge fan of high fantasy, and this sounds right up my alley.
