katikatThis is a sequel to Assassin's Creed: Renaissance. Ezio, the master assassin, seeks to avenge the death of his uncle. Unbeknownst to him this will pit him against the Knights Templar.
Review: This book had a better overall plot than "Assassin's Creed: Reneissance", on the other hand, Ezio got dumber with age. I mean, I know that Rodrigo, Cesare and Lucrezia Borgia and Micheletto were real historical figures and the author couldn't have just killed them when he wanted, but he could've written it so that their survival wouldn't make Ezio look like an incompetent idiot. Also, I never really understood the whole Apple thing, what it was and why it was even needed for the story. Was it a part of the game? Fine, then make a good, intelligent use of it, not the way it was actually used in the book, just to see pretty but inexplicable pictures. The Apple barely helped Ezio at all, yet it insisted it helped enough and he shouldn't overuse it. Good idea, badly mangled.
