FOLLOW FITZ’S FIRST STEPS AS AN ASSASSIN IN “ASSASSIN’S APPRENTICE II”
Dark Horse presents the next chapter of Robin Hobb’s classic fantasy novel, now adapted in Assassin’s Apprentice II! The second graphic novel installation collects issue #1-6 of the original Assassin’s Apprentice volume 2 comic series and continues Fitz’s journey to becoming an assassin. The book is written by Robin Hobb (The Farseer Trilogy) and Jody Houser (Critical Role: Vox Machina Origins), with interior art by Ryan Kelly (Stranger Things), cover art by Anna Steinbauer (Assassin’s Apprentice I), colors by Jordie Bellaire (Birds of Prey, The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys: National Anthem), and letters by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou (The Witcher: The Ballad of Two Wolves).
In the second installment of Assassin’s Apprentice, Fitz is given a mission to infiltrate a nobleman’s estate for signs of treason, the kingdom is plagued by Red-Ship Raiders, and the fate of the realm hinges on Fitz’s choices. Tensions rise, and a determined stranger’s arrival adds to the uncertainty. When King Shrewd decides that Fitz must learn The Skill, the harsh training of the Skillmaster Galen will bring Fitz to a breaking point. Fitz’s journey of resilience and self-doubt takes an emotional toll, while Burrich and Molly offer support.
