Internationally-bestselling, critically-acclaimed author Robin Hobb takes readers deep into the history behind the Farseer series in this exclusive, new novella.
One of the darkest legends in the Realm of the Elderlings recounts the tale of the so-called Piebald Prince, a Witted pretender to the throne unseated by the actions of brave nobles so that the Farseer line could continue untainted. Now the truth behind the story is revealed through the account of Felicity, a low-born companion of the Princess Caution at Buckkeep.
With Felicity by her side, Caution grows into a headstrong Queen-in-Waiting. But when Caution gives birth to a bastard son who shares the piebald markings of his father s horse, Felicity is the one who raises him. And as the prince comes to power, political intrigue sparks dangerous whispers about the Wit that will change the kingdom forever…
In her trademark style, Hobb offers a revealing exploration of a family secret still reverberating generations later when assassin FitzChivalry Farseer comes onto the scene. Fans will not want to miss these tantalizing new insights into a much-beloved world and its unforgettable characters.

Jag har tidigare lyssnat på Farseer triologin och den ger en del balgrundshistoria till den serien, som jag tyckte var ganska bra. Den här boken var däremot bara tråkig och det var en för lång historia för det lilla den gav.

Välskrivet, som alltid, Hobb. Intressant och läsvärd bakgrundstory/sidestory. relevant för de som läst Elderling Realm-böcker, mer än så för de som läst Tawny Man triologin.
