Andy P. reviewed The Dead Cat Tail Assassins by P. Djèlí Clark
Fun action with a few twists
4 stars
A light read with a lot of “rule of cool” action within some interesting world building. The numerous assassin fight scenes felt like video game boss battles to me, but each one is unique and there is a crafted mystery here to be solved. And it is a juicy mystery that unfolds piece by piece. Yet I’m still stuck on the final ending sentences (no spoilers) because it felt out of character and added more for aesthetics.
