Robin Hobb's royal assassin trilogy, part of the Saga of the Seers, is still one of the best works in the fantasy genre. The story of the life and struggle of Fitz Chivel, the illegitimate son of the crown prince, doomed by the whim of fate to carry out the will of his overlord, but due to the intrigues of the powers that be, he turned from a pursuer into the persecuted. A book about deceit and honor. A book about heroism and betrayal. A book about magical transformations and the constancy of noble hearts. A book that lives forever.
