Grave Mercy by Robin LaFevers Book 1 of His Fair Assassin Audio book narrated by Erin Moon **See Also: Collective Updates for Grave Mercy I liked this book more than I expected to like it, and while there is a lot of monotony to be had between certain events, I surprisingly found those quite...
⭐5 stars⭐It is this kindness of his that unsettles me most. I can dodge a blow or block a knife. I am impervious to poison and know a dozen ways to escape a chokehold or garrote wire. But kindness? I do not know how to defend against that.
So I was kind of hard-pressed not to pick this book up when I heard it was about assassin nuns. No, seriously, assassin nuns. Just take that in for a moment. It is every bit as awesome as it sounds. In fact, given it is that odd and almost-impossible-to-find combination of fantasy and historical...
