Assassin's Creed: The Magus Conspiracy

By: Kate Heartfield

London, 1851 – When Pierrette, 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. Pierrette’s only ally is Simeon Price, Lovelace’s childhood friend, who belongs to a Brotherhood devoted to free will. About 88,000 words.

Reviews:

 

The Assassin-Templar war that is so familiar through the Assassin’s Creed franchise is brought forth in new and inventive ways, with Heartfield nailing the assignment in every single chapter… It fits perfectly into the genre of action-adventure video games for which the book is written. My heart was pounding through every fight scene, in utter awe at every beautiful literary skyline.
