A review by abbytait
Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb

adventurous challenging emotional mysterious sad tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

4.5 stars! Classic setting, interesting magic system, already really impressive character work… and already so much emotional turmoil lol. She’s really laying the groundwork for her world and characters, but it’s still a satisfying arc for one book. All’s to say ha ha I am ~SCARED~ thinking about what Robin Hobb is going to put me through for 15 more books..
