Representaion During Books The King's Buccaneer (Krondor's Sons #2)
Long recovered from the ravages of the Riftwar, the land and people of the kingdom of the Isles thrive. Nicholas, the youngest son of Prince Arutha, is intelligent and gifted but vastly inexperienced. In hopes of hardening him, his father sends him and his irreverent squire, Harry, to live at Rustic Castle Crydee to learn of life beyond the halls of privilege. But within weeks of Nicholas and Harry's arrival, Crydee is viciously attacked by unknown assailants, resulting in murder, massive destruction, and the abduction of two young noblewomen. The raiders have come from a pirate haven and are no ordinary foe ... but an enemy connected to dark magical forces that threaten the lands Nicholas will someday rule -- if he survives.Itemize Books Supposing The King's Buccaneer (Krondor's Sons #2)

The Kings Buccaneer, Raymond e Feists 5th book in the order was the second best book i've read so far. Nicholas, Arutha's last son adventures to crydree with his squire Harry. I found Nicolas's journey was better than both his brother's in the previous book. I found Nicholas as a young man in the beginning but as it goes through the book, he is just like his father. Good read and worth buying for the series.The King's Buccaneer, the fifth book in the Riftwar Cycle, is another largely standalone story. Having read the previous books definitely enriches the experience, but it can certainly be read on its own. I have a soft spot for Nicholas, the protagonist of this book. His overwhelming need to be good enough, to get his father's approval, was something I strongly identified as a teen when I first read the book and my sympathy for Nicky has never left me, even if like Nicky, I mostly grew out of
This book was bloody brilliant a swashbuckling pirating adventure with some great companionship and friendships. The story was fast paced and entertaining. The main character nicholas starts off bumbling and unsure of himself and grows into a man over the course of the story. There was some interesting magic and discoveries that I thoroughly enjoyed. I would highly recommend this book and I'm really glad I carried on with my feist reading.
having read the riftwar Sagas, this audiobook has been a charming return to that scape
I found this novel much more enjoyable than the previous novel in the sons of Kondor series. when reading that book, the one minor character who interested me was Nicholas, so I was really glad to see that he was the main character of this novel. I was also really glad to see the return of other characters such as Amos Trask and Nakor. Though the plot was really interesting especially the serpent creatures gradually morphing into copies of people from Crydee. A very Caerphilly twist which I
I enjoyed this book more than it's predecessor, The Prince of the Blood, for several reasons: the characters were more likeable, the plot was less of a murder/mystery and more of a traditional fantasy/quest storyline, and it also picked up a storyline that Feist had been developing towards the end of The Riftwar Saga. Feist, however, still hasn't quite lived up to the first 8 books that were the Riftwar Saga and Legacy.
This one is a surprisingly complicated plot with one of my new favorite characters in Feist-land. :)Nicholas is forced to do a lot of growing, of course, but what's surprising is just how comprehensive the tragedy is compared to his reactions. Simple puppy love evolves into survival, ideology, and duty. But the scope and the scale quickly flies beyond the initial and we travel across the world, new lands to explore or be horrified by, and above all, far-ranging effects.This is definitely not the
