Thank you to the Publisher and NetGalley for this free copy in exchange for an honest review.

P. Djèlí Clark Hit it out of the park with this Novella, there’s a part of time that wishes this was longer just because I didn’t want to leave this world and these characters! This was so so so good, the characters were wonderful and so lovable even though one of them is an undead assassin.

This book is a face paced adventure of us following Eveen, an undead assassin as she realizes she can’t complete the job she was contracted to do. She only has until dawn to fix it or some really not good shit will happen. It’s action packed and Eveen is hilarious with her quips and quirkiness. This book had me cackling in my works break room when I had a chance to read. I highly reccomend this to anyone looking for a short action packed high paced adventure!
