"Author P. Djèlí Clark is on “auto-buy” for me. If he has a book available, I’ll purchase it. This book is a little lighter and a whole lot funnier than his other fare, but it still hits that same high-quality mark. In the city of Tal Abisi lives Eveen the Eviscerator, an unkillable assassin with a very particular set of skills. Skills she has acquired over a very long career. Skills that make her a nightmare for the people at the pointy ends of her blades. All except for one teenage girl she can’t bring herself to kill. When she fails to complete her contract, it kicks off a series of twisty, sinister events involving patriarchal jerks, edgelords getting their comeuppance, a pissed-off goddess and wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey strangeness."
