I really enjoy Isaka’s action, because it is framed so clearly from each character’s perspective, rather than being designed just to thrill.
While I find some of the plot elements a bit convenient, it’s clear that ‘fate’ and ‘happenstance’ are common threads that the author explores in their work.
Easy to read, but leaves a pit in my stomach at the end. I’ll take a break before coming back to more of his works.

I enjoyed this book! When I found out it was the sort of “prequel” to Bullet Train (another book I intend to read), I knew I had to immerse myself in Isaka’s world of assassins. It was a book outside of my normal reading list and typical genres, but I am happy to say I actually liked it! I can’t wait to read the next three books of his series. A bit predictable, but I’m excited to keep reading.
