Accidental Assassin was the second story in the Sellswords collection and yet again, the first couple of pages of this story gives the perfect amount of backstory to help the reader dive right in! This tale begins three months after the last short, and they are almost out of money again.

This time, the duo are approached by someone that they were trying to avoid and asked to make an assassination look like an accident. But can they pull it off and vacate the area without causing too much of a scene?

In this tale, we are treated to another situation of high suspense as well as an ending that left me anxious to see what happens next!


My favorite passages:
Chaos. The very nature of the word implied unpredictability, like a storm that appeared out of nowhere or an ambush that caught the victim by surprise. Chaos is the enemy of order and Ocken liked order.

In truth, he hated tea. He had never liked any type of drink that required you to let it cool and slowly sip it. Ocken was too impatient for that.

The best lies were often the ones closest to the truth.
