The Magus Conspiracy

Assassin's Creed

By: Kate Heartfield

Narrated by: Moira Quirk

The war between Assassins and Templars wreaks havoc in the Victorian era, in this breakneck thriller which opens up a whole new chapter of the Assassin’s Creed universe

London, 1851—When Pierette, a daring acrobat performing at the Great Exhibition, rescues the mathematician Ada Lovelace from a gang of thugs, she becomes immersed in an ancient feud between Assassins and Templars. But Lovelace is gravely ill, and shares her secrets with Pierette, sending the acrobat in search of a terrible weapon–the Engine of History–which she’d been developing for a shadowy figure known as “the Magus”. Pierette’s only ally is Simeon Price, Lovelace’s childhood friend who belongs to a Brotherhood devoted to freedom. With Simeon’s aid, they uncover a startling web of political assassinations destabilizing Europe. As they race to foil the Templars’ deadly plot, murders and bombs are everywhere they look, but hope is nowhere in sight.

Nice original story

I enjoyed it. Mostly standalone from the games save a name drop or two, but that's totally fine. The twist was easy to see coming imo, but it made sense for the story. I'll definitely give the other two a listen when they come out.

interesting, but slow original AC Book

As a avid AC fan, and it's multiple medias it crosses, this was a pleasant but slow surprise. The characters interesting and rounded, Due to it being slow, normally I harp on characters and plot, but this time, I did not. the pace helped things develop naturally. although the time skips seemed out of place. thoroughly enjoyed this!

Great addition to the assassins creed universe

Simion and Pirret are one of the greatest AC protagonists to date. A great listen to any fan of Assassins Creed.

Great Book

This was a great book, both as an edition to Assassin's Creed lore and as a standalone story outside that universe. It fits everything a good Assassin's Creed story has, including some nice little tie-ins to some other games and stories.

The narrator is exceptionally good! She was fantastic in Sword Of The White Horse, as well. I am positive that her performances on any book she does will be top notch.

outstanding reading of a great story

loved this book and the voice acting really brought my into this adventurein this series
