The Assassin Shall Prevail is no ordinary novel. In fact, if you are not used to its ambiguity with the timeline, you may find it a bit too dazzling to read. However, if you like Christopher Nolan's Memento, you may like this story a lot.This book is about a surrealistic, dream-like account through the mind of someone who was believed to be an assassin. Is he just a day-dreamer, or is he really involved in some really important historic events that shaped our world? In a web of wild imagination, facts and fiction are intertwined together to give the readers a crazy experience with the most important people in the past century, like Elvis, Stalin, Hitler, etc.I consider this book to be in the “cult” category. Mainstream readers who want a “normal” fast-paced story like those written by Dan Brown or John Grisham may it disagree with their taste. If you like history and do not mind “absurd” plots, then this book may be for you.
