A stunningly illustrated anniversary edition of the final chapter of the beloved Farseer Trilogy, hailed by George R. R. Martin as “fantasy as it ought to be written,” and Lin-Manuel Miranda as “an incredible series.” FitzChivalry Farseer and the Fool return in this final volume of the Farseer Trilogy, crowning the celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of Robin Hobb’s legendary series. Step into the spellbinding finale of this modern classic of epic fantasy, replete with adventure, magic, treachery, and sacrifice, along with ten full-color illustrations by Magali Villeneuve. King Shrewd is dead at the hands of his son Regal. As is Fitz—or so his enemies and friends believe. But with the help of his allies and his beast magic, he emerges from the grave, deeply scarred in body and soul. The kingdom also teeters toward ruin: Regal has plundered and abandoned the capital, while the rightful heir, Prince Verity, is lost to his mad quest—perhaps to death. Only Verity’s return—or the heir his princess carries—can save the Six Duchies. But Fitz will not wait. Driven by loss and bitter memories, he undertakes a quest: to kill Regal. The journey casts him into deep waters, as he discovers wild currents of magic within him—currents that will either drown him or make him something more than he was.

Sie ist seine Tochter und Erbin. Doch was das wirklich bedeutet, kann sie noch gar nicht ermessen. Seit Jahrhunderten kontrollieren die Diener von Clerres die Weißen Propheten und sind durch deren Weissagungen zu großer Macht gelangt. Doch die nächste Weiße Prophetin ist Biene, die Tochter des Assassinen Fitz. Selbst Folter kann ihren Willen nicht brechen, denn sie weiß, dass ihr Vater nichts unversucht lassen wird, um sie zu finden. Und sie hat Recht. Fitz ist bereits auf dem Weg, und nicht einmal Drachen können ihn aufhalten ...

Snigmorderens kald er den fantastiske afslutning på Robin Hobbs store klassiker, Farseer-trilogien, der nu endelig foreligger på dansk. I en lille afsidesliggende hytte vender den unge kongelige snigmorder Fitz langsomt tilbage til livet igen, efter hans seneste opgør med prins Regal, der på svigefuld vis har tilranet sig tronen. De få venner, Fitz har, tror nu alle, at han er død, og han kan ikke kontakte dem uden at bringe deres liv i stor fare. Da Fitz således ikke har noget at miste, drager han i selskab med sin ulv af sted til Vadkøbing, hvor De Seks Hertugdømmers nye hersker har trukket sig tilbage efter at have overladt rigets kyst til Rødskibspiraterne. Fitz har et kald: Han må og skal dræbe den mand, der har lagt hele hans verden i ruiner.

Vermogen en Wijsheid is het derde deel van Robin Hobbs trilogie De Boeken van de Zieners. Een klassieker op het gebied van de moderne fantasy. Koning Vlijm is dood door toedoen van zijn eigen zoon Regaal. Zo ook Fitz – althans, dat moet iedereen geloven. Maar met de hulp van zijn bondgenoten en de Wijsheid weet Fitz op te staan uit het graf. Zwaargewond, zowel fysiek als mentaal, duikt hij onder. Het koninkrijk stevent ondertussen op de afgrond af: Regaal heeft de hoofdstad geplunderd achtergelaten, terwijl de rechtmatige erfgenaam, prins Veritas, zich verliest in zijn waanzinnige zoektocht. Alleen Veritas' terugkeer – of de erfgenaam die zijn vrouw draagt – kan de Zes Hertogdommen nog redden. Maar Fitz kan niet wachten. Gedreven door verlies en bittere herinneringen begint hij aan een gevaarlijke missie: hij moet en zal prins Regaal vermoorden. Terwijl hij wilde stromen van magie in zichzelf ontdekt, begint hij aan zijn laatste, lange reis. 'Elke nieuwe roman van Robin Hobb is er een om te vieren.' George R.R. Martin

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The stunning conclusion to Robin Hobb’s Fitz and the Fool trilogy, which began with Fool’s Assassin and Fool’s Quest “Every new Robin Hobb novel is a cause for celebration. Along with millions of her other fans, I delight in every visit to the Six Duchies, the Rain Wilds, and the Out Islands, and can’t wait to see where she’ll take me next.”—George R. R. Martin More than twenty years ago, the first epic fantasy novel featuring FitzChivalry Farseer and his mysterious, often maddening friend the Fool struck like a bolt of brilliant lightning. Now New York Times bestselling author Robin Hobb brings to a momentous close the third trilogy featuring these beloved characters in a novel of unsurpassed artistry that is sure to endure as one of the great masterworks of the genre. Fitz’s young daughter, Bee, has been kidnapped by the Servants, a secret society whose members not only dream of possible futures but use their prophecies to add to their wealth and influence. Bee plays a crucial part in these dreams—but just what part remains uncertain. As Bee is dragged by her sadistic captors across half the world, Fitz and the Fool, believing her dead, embark on a mission of revenge that will take them to the distant island where the Servants reside—a place the Fool once called home and later called prison. It was a hell the Fool escaped, maimed and blinded, swearing never to return. For all his injuries, however, the Fool is not as helpless as he seems. He is a dreamer too, able to shape the future. And though Fitz is no longer the peerless assassin of his youth, he remains a man to be reckoned with—deadly with blades and poison, and adept in Farseer magic. And their goal is simple: to make sure not a single Servant survives their scourge.

''Fantasy as it ought to be written'' George R.R. Martin Robin Hobb returns to her best loved characters. Happy endings never last... Years ago, they freed a dragon from the glaciers on Aslevjal. Then they parted ways, the Fool returning to far-off Clerres, while Fitz finally claimed a wife, a family, and a home of his own. Now, betrayed by his own people and broken by torment, the Fool has made his way back to the Six Duchies. But as Fitz attempts to heal his old friend in Buckkeep Castle, his young daughter Bee is abducted from Withywoods by pale and mysterious raiders who leave ruin and confusion in their wake. Fitz must find a way to rescue his beloved Bee. At the same time it is the Fool''s fiercest wish to return to Clerres with the best assassin he has ever known, to gain vengeance and justice. Can Fitz bear to take up the tools of his old trade again, even to avenge his dearest friend and save his child?

In questo secondo romanzo della Trilogia dei Lungavista,séguito de L'apprendista assassino, Robin Hobb conduce i suoi eroi nell'oscurità del male e sul cammino sempre piú difficile delle scelte e del sacrificio individuali.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Nearly twenty years ago, Robin Hobb burst upon the fantasy scene with the first of her acclaimed Farseer novels, Assassin’s Apprentice, which introduced the characters of FitzChivalry Farseer and his uncanny friend the Fool. A watershed moment in modern fantasy, this novel—and those that followed—broke exciting new ground in a beloved genre. Together with George R. R. Martin, Robin Hobb helped pave the way for such talented new voices as Scott Lynch, Brandon Sanderson, and Naomi Novik. Over the years, Hobb’s imagination has soared throughout the mythic lands of the Six Duchies in such bestselling series as the Liveship Traders Trilogy and the Rain Wilds Chronicles. But no matter how far she roamed, her heart always remained with Fitz. And now, at last, she has come home, with an astonishing new novel that opens a dark and gripping chapter in the Farseer saga. FitzChivalry—royal bastard and former king’s assassin—has left his life of intrigue behind. As far as the rest of the world knows, FitzChivalry Farseer is dead and buried. Masquerading as Tom Badgerlock, Fitz is now married to his childhood sweetheart, Molly, and leading the quiet life of a country squire. Though Fitz is haunted by the disappearance of the Fool, who did so much to shape Fitz into the man he has become, such private hurts are put aside in the business of daily life, at least until the appearance of menacing, pale-skinned strangers casts a sinister shadow over Fitz’s past . . . and his future. Now, to protect his new life, the former assassin must once again take up his old one. . . . Praise for Fool’s Assassin “Hobb knows the complicated workings of the wayward human heart, and she takes time to depict them in her tale, to tell her story sweetly, insistently, compellingly. . . . A book meant to be inhabited rather than run through.”—The Seattle Times “[FitzChivalry Farseer is] one of the best characters in fantasy literature.”—Fantasy Book Review “[Hobb’s] prose sparkles, her characters leap off the page.”—Tordotcom “Modern fantasy at its irresistible best.”—The Guardian “Fantastic . . . emotionally rich storytelling.”—Library Journal (starred review)

"Robin Hobb es una de las grandes escritoras modernas de fantasía. Que sus novelas sean tan adictivas como la morfina no sólo se debe a su brillante inventiva, sino al modo en que sus personajes se ven implicados y manipulados por el juego de la política." -The Times "En el abigarrado mundo de la literatura fantástica, los libros de Robin Hobb son diamantes en un océano de imitaciones" -George R. R. Martin Traspié, hijo bastardo del noble príncipe Hidalgo, es heredero al trono de los Seis Ducados.

Todos los miembros de la realeza lo consideran un paria, salvo el taimado rey Artimañas -su abuelo-, quien busca que sea instruido en las artes del asesinato, ya que por sus venas corre la sangre de una Habilidad mágica. Mientras los bárbaros invasores saquean las costas, Traspié se convierte en un hombre. Pronto deberá enfrentar su primera misión, tan peligrosa como desoladora. Y aunque hay quienes ven en él una amenaza para el trono, quizá posea la fórmula secreta para la supervivencia del reino.

Internationally-bestselling, critically-acclaimed author Robin Hobb takes readers deep into the history behind the Farseer series in this exclusive, new novella. This version does not include illustrations by Jackie Morris and is suitable for Kindle and Kindle Paperwhite.

Fruto de uma infidelidade, Fitz, filho de Cavalaria, é um bastardo real, desprezado pelo mundo, sem amigos e solitário. O rapaz refugia-se nos estábulos da realeza e apenas sua conexão mágica com os animais - a antiga arte conhecida como Manha - proporciona-lhe um pouco de alegria e companheirismo. Mas a Manha, se usada com frequência, é uma mágica perigosa e mal vista pela nobreza. Então, quando Fitz é finalmente adotado pela casa real, ele deve abrir mão de seus antigos costumes e aprender a viver esta nova vida: artilharia, escrita, bons modos, a magia do Talento... e, secretamente, aprender a matar um homem, já que é treinado para se tornar o assassino real e um dos homens de confiança do Rei Sagaz. Quando salteadores bárbaros começam a atacar os povoados costeiros, Fitz será encarregado da sua primeira missão. Ao mesmo tempo, perceberá que está rodeado de intrigas, segredos, desonra, heroísmo, aventuras e magia. Embora alguns o vejam como uma ameaça ao trono, ele talvez se torne a principal peça para a sobrevivência do próprio reino. Em O Aprendiz de Assassino, primeiro volume da série "Saga do assassino", Robin Hobb cria uma das histórias mais amadas da literatura de fantasia.

For a limited time, experience the beginning of the Rain Wilds Chronicles series at a special price, including bonus excerpts from other books in the series.In Dragon Keeper, too much time has passed since the powerful dragon Tintaglia helped the people of the Trader cities stave off an invasion of their enemies. The Traders have forgotten their promises, weary of the labor and expense of tending earthbound dragons who were hatched weak and deformed by a river turned toxic. If neglected, the creatures will rampage—or die—so it is decreed that they must move farther upriver toward Kelsingra, the mythical homeland whose location is locked deep within the dragons'' uncertain ancestral memories. Thymara, an unschooled forest girl, and Alise, wife of an unloving and wealthy Trader, are among the disparate group entrusted with escorting the dragons to their new home. And on an extraordinary odyssey with no promise of return, many lessons will be learned—as dragons and tenders alike experience hardships, betrayals . . . and joys beyond their wildest imaginings.

La maldición milenaria de los Antiguos Mercaderes de Mitonar se va erosionando poco a poco bajo la mano de hierro de un nuevo soberano corrupto. Los Vestrit aguardan el regreso de su nao rediviva, un barco mágico construido con tronconjuro, la madera que establece un vínculo místico de las embarcaciones con aquellos que las gobiernan. Althea Vestrit vive con el único propósito de recuperar la nave, que considera la herencia que un día le fue negada, y navegar con ella por los mares. Sin embargo, la Vivacia ha sido capturada por el capitán pirata Kennit. Althea y su antiguo camarada de aventuras marítimas, Brashen, se han propuesto liberar a la nao rediviva, pero quizá su plan resulte más peligroso que el hecho de dejar la Vivacia en las manos codiciosas de Kennit.

New York Times bestselling author Robin Hobb returns to world of the Rain Wilds—called "one of the most gripping settings in modern fantasy" (Booklist)—in her epic fantasy adventure, City of Dragons. Continuing the enthralling journey she began in her acclaimed Dragon Keeper and Dragon Haven, Hobb rejoins a small group of weak, half-formed and unwanted dragons and their displaced human companions as they search for Kelsingra, a legendary sanctuary woven into the lore of the Elderlings. Now, as the misfit band approaches its final destination, dragons and keepers alike face a challenge so insurmountable that it threatens to render their long, difficult odyssey utterly meaningless. Touching, powerful, and dazzlingly inventive, Hobb’s City of Dragons is not to be missed—further proof that this author belongs alongside Raymond E. Feist, Terry Brooks, and Lois McMaster Bujold in the pantheon of fantasy fiction’s true greats.
