Goodreads Summary: 'I will seek Vengeance upon those who betrayed my family. I am Ezio Auditore da Firenze. I am an Assassin…'
Betrayed by the ruling families of Italy, a young man embarks upon an epic quest for vengeance. To eradicate corruption and restore his family's honour, he will learn the art of the assassins.
Along the way, Ezio will call upon the wisdom of such great minds as Leonardo Da Vinci and Niccolo Machiavelli – knowing that survival is bound to the skills by which he must live.
To his allies, he will become a force for change - fighting for freedom and justice. To his enemies, he will become a threat dedicated to the destruction of the tyrants abusing the people of Italy.
So begins an epic story of power, revenge and conspiracy.
TRUTH WILL BE WRITTEN IN BLOOD
Review:
As someone who has played the Assassin Creed games, I was very excited to read this book, but somewhat skeptical of how it would turn out. I thought, that like most books based on a game, it would suck. It didn't. It indeed did follow Assassin's Creed II fairly closely but it also added some things that you didn't see happen, which i liked. I am curious though, as to why the author didn't make the first book based on the first game, instead of making the second game be the first book. But who knows, all I know was this was a pretty damn good book.
