Why read it?

1 author picked The Impossible Contract as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The Chronicles of Ghadid follows a family of assassins in a fantastical desert world—but rather than play it safe by following stealthy assassination quests, Doore throws her assassins into the fray against undead armies and unkillable spirits. The result is a truly unique setting with haunting action sequences, bound together by the close ties of family and budding romances. Also, necromancers and undead camels, how could you go wrong?

From Nathan's list on scifi fantasy with action sequences.
