ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"Royal Assassin" by Robin Hobb explores themes of duty, loyalty, and sacrifice amidst political intrigue and impending war. The narrative follows the journey of FitzChivalry, a royal bastard trained as an assassin, as he navigates a world of treachery and magic. The kingdom faces external threats from mysterious Red-Ships and internal dangers from a power-hungry prince named Regal. Magic, specifically the Skill, a hereditary power, plays a crucial role, linking the royal family and enabling communication and influence. The story delves into the burden of leadership, the nature of knowledge, and the complexities of identity as Fitz struggles with his past, his present, and the uncertain future of the Six Duchies.
