If only... this hadn't happened, I would have been dead.That is the theme of this book.  For someone who is supposed to be one of the most deadly people in the universe, this type of thing happened far too often.I am getting tired of supposedly superior beings getting their a... kicked time and time again, eg Jennifer Estep's assassin books.  It is not so bad if the hero is an ordinary person who survives by the skin of his teeth, but when it is someone who is supposedly one of the best, if not the best, in the world, it becomes tiresome in the extreme.  So it is with this book.  In some justification, some of the enemies in this book are close to the hero's abilities, but nevertheless the number of escapes by the skin of his teeth were almost too much to bear, certainly too much to be believable.There are obviously more to come in this series and I hope it will improve.
