 The Royal Assassin
The road itself was nearly obscured under a haze of dust, raised by the knights and messengers on lathered horses galloping back and forth the few miles between the Royal Palace in the capital and the castle where the Prince and his court waited.
Deep in the bowels of the Royal Palace the heat was unbearable, and the cooks and their helpers dripped sweat into the courses they took from the huge ovens for the celebratory feast.
He began almost to long for the assassin to appear, to cut short the agony, the painful beating of his heart within its cage.

 Royal Assassin (The Farseer Trilogy, Book 2) | Stylegala
Royal Assassin is an accomplished sequel to Apprentice that fans will attach themselves to it with great fervor.
The political structure of the Six Duchies is a bit sketchy in places and seems to lack internal causes and volition among its various factions and doesn't break new ground.
In our assessment of works in how they will change the course of the genre and the effect on future writers, Royal Assassin has not convinced us it is groundbreaking in any way.

Young Fitz, the illegitimate son of the noble Prince Chivalry, is ignored by all royalty except the devious King Shrewd, who has had him tutored him in the dark arts of the assassin.

Royal Assassin is the middle book in the Farseer Trilogy (the other two are Assassin's Apprentice and Assassin's Quest, not the books mistakenly filed under this category), and anyone who has an interest in reading it, I suggest start from the beginning.
Red ships led by Outislanders have begun raiding The Six Duchies coast, and are consistently becoming more arrogant in choosing their targets.
In Royal Assassin, the story takes a drastically darker turn from the light-hearted coming of age story of Assassin's Apprentice.

A: No. As with all targeted spells and abilities, when the Royal Assassin's ability goes to resolve, it will check to make sure its target is still legal.
When it's time for you to choose a creature to target, the Assassin is untapped and therefore illegal.

 Adam Sampson: Robin Hobb, "Royal Assassin"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Having returned from his dubiously-successful mission in the Mountain Kingdom, royal bastard (and trained assassin) FitzChivalry finds himself the centre of the political machinations at Buckkeep as he recovers from his injuries.
The formula of the first book -- most of the plot set inside Buckkeep with occasional excursions outside -- is followed, but the mood gets darker and darker as the story progresses.
I would strongly recommend reading this (once you've read "Assassin's Apprentice"), and I can't imagine finishing it and not wanting to go on to the third volume.

The son of his oldest and now deceased child is a bastard, unfit for the throne so raised to be royal assassin.
So it is that the Coastal Duchies have no support from the inlands ones, or their ailing king, and must learn to protect themselves.
Bastard and assassin FitzChivalry is young, but not too young to fear Prince Regal's attempt for the throne.

When Fitz returns to Buckkeep he steps back into his old role as King Shrewd's Assassin, as well as into a new role as Verity's helper in fighting the Forged Ones.
The Forged Ones are citizens of the Kingdom of the Six Duchies who have been captured by the Red Ship Raiders (who have been terrorizing the coast) and turned loose as near zombies who can't think or feel but know only to attack and feed like ghouls.

FitzChivalry, the bastard son of a crown prince, has been trained secretly as an assassin at the court of King Shrewd, his grandfather.
As Shrewd's health fails and the treacherous Prince Regal schemes to usurp the throne from King-in-Waiting Verity, FitzChivalry must use all his wits and powers to thwart Regal as Verity goes on a quest for the fabled Elderlings, beings who can aid the kingdom in its struggle against the Red-Ship Raiders.
Royal Assassin, like its predecessor, is a good page-turner.

 The SF Site: Rodger's Favourites for 1996
The Farseer: Royal Assassin by Robin Hobb, Bantam Spectra
Hobb has a true gift for characterization: she made Fitz (the bastard assassin of our story) carry his angst, his physical pain, his maturing into adulthood seamless and non-trivial.
Her prose is quite unlike some other authors whose attempts at this difficult task appear whiny and self-serving.

He is treated like an outcast by all the royalty except the devious King Shrewd, who has him sectetly tutored in the arts of the assassin.
For in Fitz's blood runs the magic Skill - and the darker knowledge of a child raised with the stable hounds and rejected by his family.
