The Story Continues
The second novel to be released in the series continues the story of Ezio Auditore, just as the game of the same title did. Ezio has concentrated his efforts to bring down the Borgia family and the Templar Order, and traveled to Rome in order to complete his work that he started some years ago. Now a Master Assassin, Ezio must recruit his own brotherhood of Assassin's if he is to defeat the Templar Order.

The story of Ezio, allows us an insight as to his character development, as he grows from a young man seeking revenge, to a Master Assassin, seeking to bring down the Templar Order for the fate of the world depends upon the succession of the Assassin's. Rome is yet another brilliant setting for the Assassin's Creed franchise to take place and Ezio is certainly one of the most interesting Assassin's to follow throughout the franchise.

With help yet again from his previous allies, including Leonardo Da Vinci, the story told here is one of mystery and excitement.

I'm not sure how many times I can praise Bowden for his work on this series. All I can say is that he does not fail to entertain and reveal a new experience to the world of Assassin's Creed. If you have read my previous reviews then you know how much I praise this man for his work on the series of Novels he has written for the fans. Each one delivers a new thrilling experience and each one stays true to the events of the video game as much as possible. Of course each person who plays the video game plays differently. These novels give more of a sense of what the Assassin's themselves would have truly done in the events that unfold.

The book was just like the first series and continues the woman assassin's story. While it has been awhile since I read His Fair Assassin trilogy that did not seem to be a problem while reading this book.
I enjoyed the premise but some parts felt drawn out.

so. much. happens. (0 more)
It just gets better and better...
This book was so action packed, I don't think I ever put the book down. It draws you in from page 1 until you realise that you've read the entire book. Characters from the Assassin's Blade were reintroduced, and are now such a crucial part of the plot - SJM is queen.
P.S I hate Chaol even more now.
