Customer Reviews

This is one of the best books I've read

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!
