Assassin's Apprentice (by Robin Hobb)
He had always been known as "boy". His grandfather hadn't provided a name as he threw the child into the castle gates. He was the illegitimate son of Prince Chivalry, and everyone let him know it. He is pledged to the King at an early age because he is seen as a threat to the kingdom. One night a man shows up in his chambers and tells him that the King wants him trained as an assassin. Later on, he is trained in the Skill, but he fails and is left in shame. However, when he goes on a mission for the King, he uncovers a plot to kill the Prince and knows that he must stop it.
