The Book: Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb.
The Review: "In today's crowded fantasy market Robin Hobb's books are like diamonds in a sea of zircons."The Reviewer: George RR Martin
The Verdict: After approximately 240 pages of scene setting, there is a well constructed, entertaining plot. It does not rise above the level of a good fantasy novel, however.
