Assassin of Shadows: A Novel by Lawrence Goldstone
mysterious
medium-paced
3.0
*Disclaimer: I was given an advanced readers copy of this novel. In no way does this influence my views or opinions of this novel.*
Although this book took me quite a while to get into, it was a very pleasant read! There was just enough humour and intrigue to keep things moving along while little hints of things were happening here and there.
My biggest reason for not scoring this higher was the attention to details; there were times I would have preferred more details and subtle hints of things happening, instead of finding out about something two chapters later. I also wasn't huge on the romantic story line in it, it didn't add anything for me and could honestly have been done away with, although it does lead to decent character development.
Overall, it was a good read.
