Assassin's Lament is a coming of age story mixed up with a dash of romance, a hefty chunk of tragedy, and plenty of action. Cue swords, zombies, kingdoms, assassins, war, blood, and guilt. Plenty of guilt. For fans of Joe Abercrombie.
"Assassin's Lament is irreverent fantasy meets zombies... I enjoyed the characters a great deal...The story was fast-paced and the writing was good. There was a lot of action and if you are into juicy fight scenes, this one is for you...the story kept me reading and I can't wait for the next installment!" - Claire Luana, author of Moonburner.
"I enjoyed this book. I cared about the characters, I liked the development overall, and the plot is interesting and engaging. I look forward to reading the rest of the series." - JK Hackworth
What happens when all you have left is guilt?
Aryan was born to a whore and spent his childhood hiding from her fists round at Darryl's house. All his life he wished something would change, something would happen. When the Night of Blood came, he discovered the danger of wishing for anything too hard.
Nowadays, Aryan travels the continent, searching for a myth only fools still believe in. Darryl's still around and they've been joined by Tast, an actor in a world without stages. Then there's Lissa, but the less said about her, the better.
His search might not be so difficult, if it weren't for the curse. But the Wildlands are controlled by the walkers, and only fools leave the safety of the city walls. But sometimes it takes a fool to see what others are too scared to. Just like it takes an assassin to do what others can't, or won't...
You're only one click away from entering the world of the Assassin's Song! Hit buy to join Aryan and the others on a journey that will never leave you...
