I was a big fan of the first book in the His Fair Assassin series, Grave Mercy. A dark historical featuring carefully trained female assassins serving the god of Death in 15th century France? Bring it! Here's a totally random teaser from book number two, Dark Triumph, which I'm starting today. From page 62:For a brief moment, I consider dumping the entire contents into my wine. If I drink all of it, I will never wake up. The thought of going to sleep and never having to deal with d'Albret or the abbess or Julian again is as seductive as a siren's song.
But what if Death rejects me again? Then I will be forced to lie weak and vulnerable, at the mercy of others while I recover. A most terrifying thought.

ReplyDeleteI received the book and it looks quite menacing staring at me from the bookshelf, calling me to read it. Alas, I school work hasn't let me. Great teaser!
