In this novel based on the Assassin's Creed(tm) video game series, Niccolò Polo, father of Marco, will finally reveal the story he has kept secret all his life--the story of Altaïr, one of the Brotherhood's most extraordinary Assassins. Altaïr embarks on a formidable mission--one that takes him throughout the Holy Land and shows him the true meaning of the Assassin's Creed. To demonstrate his commitment, Altaïr must defeat nine deadly enemies, including Templar leader Robert de Sable. Altaïr's life story is told here for the first time: a journey that will change the course of history; his ongoing battle with the Templar conspiracy; a family life that is as tragic as it is shocking; and the ultimate betrayal of an old friend. An Original Novel Based on the Multiplatinum Video Game from Ubisoft
I love how Assassin's Creed, Ubisoft's best selling game is turned into a novel. Oliver Bowden did wonderful. I never played the game, so I can't say whether it's 100 percent accurate or somewhat accurate. In the 1st few chapters it's a little slow but once you get past them, it gets good. I can't ever get hooked on a book like some other readers might. But sometimes this book has me captivated! I can't wait to finish it!
