The story line sound very interesting. I like a book that keeps you wanting to read more & not put it down. Writing a fantasy involving historical characters to me is always a good read.

I couldn't agree more! I love it when an author can weave real people and events into their storyline.

Thank you for the great review! An assassin on someone who is terminally ill does make it sound like an exciting read. Even with some needed improvement on the flashback transitions, I'm glad you were able to enjoy the read!
