Assassin's Quest is the last book in the Farseer trilogy, first published in 1997. Previous books in the series are Assassin's Apprentice and Royal Assassin.
Dedication
For the very real Kat Ogden
Who threatened, at an early age, to grow up and be
a tap dancing,
fencing,
judoka,
movie-star,
archeologist,
and
President of the United States.
And is getting frighteningly close to the end of her list.
Never mistake the movie for the book.
