An Original Novel Based on the Multiplatinum Video Game from Ubisoft 1862, and with London in the grip of the Industrial Revolution, the world s first underground railway is under construction. When a body is discovered at the dig, it sparks the beginning of the latest deadly chapter in the centuries-old battle between the Assassins and Templars. Deep undercover is an Assassin with dark secrets and a mission to defeat the Templar stranglehold on the nation s capital. Soon the Brotherhood will know him as Henry Green, mentor to Jacob and Evie Frye. For now, he is simply The Ghost. "

I've not yet played the game, but this was so detailed that I had a very vivid image throughout & didn't want to put it down. I don't know how much of Henry's story is told in the game, so was surprised the book is mostly about him, not the Frye twins. I really enjoyed it, but the last fifth dedicated to the twins felt a little rushed at first, because it doesn't go into detail about each assassination, but I imagine all the key points are there.

I enjoyed finding out more about Henry and Abberline and the others as well as the events preceding the events of the game but I honestly think that Part Three of the book was unnecessary. A nice read for more background information but I have to say I prefer the game.

I got myself hooked on Syndicate again so I‘m hoping to finally get through the rest of the book as well!🍂🎮📚

I was completely drained by my morning errands because I‘ve been having the most annoying small headache for days but it seems that my nap helped to get mostly rid of it so now I can enjoy reading in bed while listening to the rain outside🌧

Reading Assassins Creed while patiently waiting for my next tattoo session to finish this Assassins Creed outline...and maybe taking game breaks:)
