HTML:“Fantasy as it ought to be written . . . Robin Hobb’s books are diamonds in a sea of zircons.”—George R. R. Martin Prince Dutiful has been rescued from his Piebald kidnappers and the court has resumed its normal rhythms. There FitzChivalry Farseer, gutted by the loss of his wolf bondmate, must take up residence at Buckkeep as a journeyman assassin.
Posing as a bodyguard, Fitz becomes the eyes and ears behind the walls, guiding a kingdom straying closer to civil strife each day. Amid a multitude of problems, Fitz must ensure that no one betrays the Prince’s secret—one that could topple the throne: that he, like Fitz, possesses the dread “beast magic.” Only Fitz’s friendship with the Fool brings him solace. But even that is shattered when devastating revelations from the Fool’s past are exposed. Bereft of support and adrift in intrigue, Fitz finds that his biggest challenge may be simply to survive. BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from Robin Hobb's Fool's Fate.
Praise for Robin Hobb and Golden Fool
“[Robin Hobb] ranks near the top of the high fantasy field. . . . [She] juggles all the balls with aplomb, besides providing spot-on characterizations.”—Publishers Weekly
“Solid storytelling with warmth and heart.”—TheKansas City Star.… (altro)
Votato quattro stelle più come omaggio alla saga, che per un reale merito.. Libro che ho letto piuttosto lentamente, dopo aver divorato i precedenti. Ha preso il via dopo la metà , la parte precedente, mi è sembrata più per dar spessore (nel senso di cm) al libro, che altro. Sicuramente però, l'evoluzione della storia, continua ad appassionarmi..Ora mi appresto a leggere la conclusione di questa bellissima seconda trilogia.. ( )
