Description

When Desmond Miles is called away on an urgent mission, he entrusts fellow Assassin Jonathan Hawk with File 24. Hawk sets out to search for the Scepter of Isis - a powerful ancient artifact, lost in time. Through his Assassin ancestor, El Cakr, Hawk travels to Egypt in 1257, where the Scepter lies in the hands of the new Sultan. Pursued in the present by the formidable Templar agent Vernon Hest, Hawk finds himself in a race against time - throughout time.

Reviews

"If you are a fan of the games then this is a must have. It is another cool installment into a video game that in many respects changed how we view video games today. This is worth your time, money and respect." - Nerd Trek "The artwork is beautiful and has the standard high quality binding you would come to expect from Titan." - Comics Online 'If you enjoyed the preceding trilogy than you need to pick this book up. It shows the modern spy versus spy war between the Templar's and the Assassins in a level of detail missed by the game.' - Geek Nutz 'There's an intriguing story, interesting art, and I can't wait to find out what will happen next.' - Awkward Geeks 'A welcome addition to the franchise's universe and canon alike' - Comic Hype 'Defali's rich and full artwork retains much of the lushness and detail of the software versions while still functioning under its own power and interpretation, and just shows that even with four games currently out (and supplementals), there is still plenty of rich ore to be mined in the Assassin's Creed worlds.' - Fanboy Comics
