Book:
B+
Join
Edward Kenway, a British privateer turned pirate and the newest
member of the Assassin's Order in the 18th century Caribbean, where
there is a secret war going on between the Assassins, Templars and
the British, Spanish and French Empires. They are searching for the
Observatory, an ancient relic which allows the user to see through
the eyes of someone's blood, but the only man who can lead them to
the Observatory is mysterious Sage. Kenway became a pirate for the
riches, but becomes an unwitting pawn in a much greater game....
This
is a beautiful oversized book featuring the Assassin's
Creed 4.
It has beautiful art work and vistas of Caribbean of where the story
takes place along with various characters and character designs.
From island paradises, high seas pirate ship battles, underwater
coves to dangerous trap filled Mayan temples, this art book paints a
ancient world with a hidden secrets that various secret societies,
super powers and organizations have been after since the beginning of
time. The only thing I wished the could of done more was more art
work on their equipment or character action poses with scenes from
the game, but it is extensive and big, so fans will not be too
disappointed.
