An upcoming novel of Assassin's Creed III reveals the origins of Connor, the new assassin in the third game.

Assassin’s Creed: Forsaken is written by Oliver Bowden and releases on December 4 for $9.99. "Set during the American Revolution, Connor has sworn to secure liberty for his people and his nation and unleashes his powerful skills on the chaotic, blood-soaked battlefields of the hostile American wilderness," the description reads. "Assassin’s Creed: Forsaken is the story behind who Connor really is and how he has become a deadly killer.'

Ubisoft says the first four Assassin's Creed games have sold 38 million units worldwide to date.

Sounds like it'll be fun to read.

I'd read it. Plus, American Revolution plus Assassins can only make awesome.

Does Connor have 1 or 2 hidden blades? I had only seen one in the trailers and gameplay, but that hidden blade was on the opposite arm than the one in the picture above.

Isn't it supposed to tell you how he became an assassin in the game?

Nice, that's cool.

I always enjoy game novels.

I'm getting it

Assassin's Creed III is going to get a perfect 10. I can feel it.
by Daigo Matsuoka Wednesday, July 18, 2012 at 02:20 PM

Actually, I want to read this novel
by The Father of Understanding Wednesday, July 18, 2012 at 02:26 PM

How will this tie in with the game? I thought III would operate much like II in that we see Connor as a child and then see him don the white assassins garb. Is there going to be that much in between Young Connor and Assassin Connor that a novel could be written...?
by ZestyNoodles Wednesday, July 18, 2012 at 02:26 PM

Might just have to pick this up, but I just hope it isn't too similar to the game, mostly because isn't the game supposed to tell you how he became an Assassin?

This is definently something my brother would love.
by freezeimacop690 Wednesday, July 18, 2012 at 02:32 PM

I might actually get this. That ten dollar price point is the deciding factor. Do I want to spend ten bucks now, or save it for comic books?
by azzkicker Wednesday, July 18, 2012 at 02:36 PM

I've read the first one and I'm halfway through the secound one . They are good .
by Space Hamster Wednesday, July 18, 2012 at 02:43 PM

I was kinda hoping the game would reveal all of this...
by KillerAura Wednesday, July 18, 2012 at 02:45 PM

nice, always good to have more stuff to read
by Dimitri Wednesday, July 18, 2012 at 03:06 PM

is it called Link? lol jk
by Frankdaddy Wednesday, July 18, 2012 at 03:08 PM
