Part two of Assassin's Apprentice, the first book in Robin Hobb's bestselling epic fantasy Farseer Trilogy, brought to life in comics form.

In the second instalment 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 brings Fitz to a breaking point. Fitz's journey of resilience and self-doubt takes an emotional toll, while Burrich and Molly offer support.
