  • "The kingdom of the Six Duchies is on the brink of civil war when news breaks that the crown prince has fathered a bastard son and is shamed into abdication. The child's name is Fitz, and his is despised. Raised in the castle stables, only the company of the king's fool, the ragged children of the lower city and his unusual affinity with animals provide Fitz with any comfort. To be useful to the crown, Fitz is trained as an assassin; and to use the traditional magic of the Farseer family. But his tutor, allied to another political faction, is determined to discredit, even kill him. Fitz must survive: for he may be destined to save the kingdom."@en
  • "Young Fitz is the bastard son of the noble Prince Chivalry, raised in the shadow of the royal court by his father's gruff stableman. He is treated like an outcast by all the royalty except the devious King Shrewd, who has him secretly tutored in the arts of the assassin. For in Fitz's blood runs the magic Skill--and the darker knowledge of a child raised with the stable hounds and rejected by his family. As barbarous raiders ravage the coasts, Fitz is growing to manhood. Soon he will face his first dangerous, soul-shattering mission. And though some regard him as a threat to the throne, he may just be the key to the survival of the kingdom."@en

Royal Assassin: Continues the story of Fitz, the royal bastard training in the art of assassination. In this second book of the series we have a delightful new character, Queen Kettricken, as well as the always interesting Lady Patience. Queen Kettricken brings with her from her mountain kingdom the idea of Queen as Servant, which she attempts to live out in her new home. The people here don't understand her, which causes life to be difficult for her. Her dearest friend in her trials is Fitz. Fitz has other problems to worry about, too. The Forged Ones are spreading across the land, and Prince Verity's war with the Outislanders is growing more desperate. People are losing confidence in him, and begin to speak favorably about Prince Regal, who wants Fitz dead. The Royal Assassin, whose place was meant to be a shadowy one, serving the king in secret, has been exposed, and new dangers threaten him. Fitz will have to make difficult decisions about what is right and what is best, and he learns that those two things aren't always the same."@en

  • ""Au royaume des Six-Duchés, le prince Chevalerie, de la famille régnante des Loinvoyant - par tradition, le nom des seigneurs doit modeler leur caractère - décide de renoncer à son ambition de devenir roi-servant en apprenant l'existence de Fitz, son fils illégitime.
