The Assassins Blade

Title: The Assassins Blade
Author: Sarah J Mass

This is the backstory of the famed assassin Celina in her first of many adventures in a collection of novels for the popular YA book series The Throne of Glass.

It is an interesting and very thrilling collection of stories showing a background for the first book in her Throne of Glass novels. As well as the first book I have read by Ms. Mass, and all I can say is I can't wait to dig into the first book. This is due to how alive the characters feel when reading, each has their own thoughts and motives and are more than there to prop up the main character. Does not help that there was a budding romance, betrail and murder (last one, not much of a surprise as it is about an assassin). Who to trust and where to find the knife in the back, like a fantasy Noir (I love noir so much, just as much as I do SFF).

In her travels, she manages to piss off a Pirate Lord, her master and a few people of notoriety as well as to endear her self to a would-be healer and a woman after vengeance. All of whom end up later on in the series.

Looking forward to reading more (SO MUCH TO READ ALL SO LITTLE TIME).

Rating: READ IT NOW, WELL. ARE YOU HARD OF HEARING? GO READ IT NOW.
