My head is still reeling over Burke's The Assassin Shall Prevail. This book has so many elements to it that it's hard to really pin point what type of genre it should be put into. There's a lot of interesting aspects, such as the smartest little girl in the world (of course, she is half alien) and train of thought that goes is added from a wide collection of other successful authors.It's tough to get into the head of the main character, “O”, because he lives in his head, which makes the details of reality a little more foggy. However, trying to sort out the fine line between real life and the inner voice makes the book all the more exciting.The best thing about the novel is the amazing dry humor. It's great to have a book that makes you think, keeps you entertained and allows you chuckle to yourself. I'd recommend the book to anyone who has lots of patience for stories that might not seem clear at first. After all, once you finally get what's going on this book is top notch and will leave you turning the pages faster than you thought possible.
