Reviews
" The Perfect Assassin is a thrilling fantastical mystery that had me racing through the pages. With a mix of heart and adventure, and set in a wonderfully inventive new world, K.A. Doore's debut shines." --S. A. Chakraborty, author of The City of Brass "Doore is a force to be reckoned with, blending a stirring plot, elegant worldbuilding, effortless style, and diverse, empathetic characters. Her debut is sure to be a hit with fans of Sarah J. Maas and George R.R. Martin." - Publishers Weekly , starred review "The writing is smooth and the world immersive, the characters lively and distinct; it's queer AF, well-paced and fascinating and political, and grapples with the morality of assassination in a thoughtful and considered way. I loved these stabby Hufflepuffs to pieces!!" --Sam Hawke, Aurealis Award-winning author of City of Lies " The Perfect Assassin is one of those rare books that manages to be both thrilling and tender. It's full of rooftop fights, frightening magic, and nonstop excitement and mystery, while at the same time it's a thought-provoking exploration of what it means to be a monster and the power of love and forgiveness. I absolutely loved it from start to finish!" -- Sarah Beth Durst, award-winning author of The Queens of Renthia series "K. A. Doore has crafted a thrilling and poignant tale on the costs of loyalty. In the city of Ghadid, ideas of justice and family battle and braid themselves around each other in action-packed fashion. Part murder mystery, part family saga, part coming-of-age chronicle , The Perfect Assassin intrigues and excites in equal measure." -Tochi Onyebuchi, author of Beasts Made of Night "In a high-flung desert city, a reluctant assassin's choices threaten his family's way of life, those he loves, and, worst of all, the spirits of the dead. Amastan Basbowen's options are all dangerous, but he must move forward. The ensuing intrigue forms the core of a highly exciting adventure." -- Fran Wilde, Hugo and Nebula nominated, Andre Norton Award winning author of Updraft "Set in a world of believable richness, The Perfect Assassin combines a suspenseful plot with a memorable cast of characters, and an assassin protagonist who is compelled to make hard choices." --Ilana C. Myer, author of Last Song Before Night and Fire Dance "A bold, original adventure set in a world of enthralling beauty. The Perfect Assassin shimmers with mystery and romance, and with characters whose courage and charisma brighten every page." -- Ausma Zehanat Khan, author of The Bloodprint "Fascinating world building with all the mystery and appeal of the One Thousand and One Nights." --Duncan M. Hamilton, author of the Wolf of the North series "Doore's thrilling fantasy debut is a suspenseful murder mystery wrapped around a coming-of-age story, sprinkled with family intrigue, vengeful ghosts, and a gentle but bittersweet m/m romance. Ghadid, set on platforms hundreds of feet above shifting sands, is vividly described, with a fascinating history and culture that Doore folds in naturally. This author is one to watch." -- Booklist, " The Perfect Assassin is one of those rare books that manages to be both thrilling and tender.
