>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>ANALYSIS: Karen Azinger first came to my notelast year with her debut The carburet of ironQueen. In the penultimate months of last year, I was alerted to her new briefhistoryassemblageThe Assassin’s Tear which seemed like a exactmix. When the authorrequested a review, I quicklyagreed as I had enjoyed perusalher debut sacrificeand now I wanted to see how she would do with shorter vergeof fiction. The assemblageopens up with a exactprefatorymemorandumin which Karen does a minutepiece of workof effectivethe reader about the background of each story. I enjoyed intelligenthow one of the stories was inspired by a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a use a fan uponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponuponor that another one was inspired by the accountpassageand finallyone which spanned the use of three cards and the images they carried. Karen Azinger enthusiastically cracks freeabout each historyand therefore it fires up the reader for the forthcoming stories.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> The stories then begin with Prophecy’s twist which is putseveral hundreds of years ahead of the timeline established in the carburet of ironQueen, these events are transverseto perusefor fans of the Silk & carburet of ironscandinavian legendas they relatean occurrencewhich molds much of the sorceryhappening in the saga. However for readers unascertainedto these books, this historywill seem extraordinaryas in it things chancerather speedilyand then the historyhurls along to its disastrousend. The historyhas some exactsurprises putin its trackand this sets the soundfastidiouslyfor the opener. The next historyis the nominalhistoryof the workand is one of the best ones as it focuses on a pilferercalled Dolf who decides to take a beamto the Mordant’s castle. This historyis putaround the same durationas the introductionof the first workThe carburet of ironQueen, however while the first workhad its moments of obscurity, this historyis almost covered by obscuritystretching to the airas well as to the thoughts of the protagonist. This was the best historyof the workfor me as it showcased surprises as well revealed some transversepointers for the realErdhe succession(thought they don’t betokenwell for the heroes in the series).
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> The third spokenrelationseems to be inspired by Indiana Jones as instructorZebastion Kole is the protagonist who is given a workand he must use his wits as well as the filledexpansionof his apprehensionto help his nation. A pleasantryoral relationwhich agreeablewithout being strikingmuch acts as a lighter defeatto the earlier ones and is one which reminded me a destinyof thrillers by Matthew Reilly. A Man’s World is the next tale, which is a pillarin or from the revelationone and one which is based on an engagingprefacethat is without the nearnessof women. A clusterof miners are the acuteendof concentrationof this tale, and among them Danny & Burt are the protagonists of this story. The historyis about the worldof manand how unyieldingaircan be. The next historyis called Pieces of the Truth and is about durationtravel, while the spokenrelationhas the protagonist Linus going back to fita very weightyscientist. The ending of the historywas a exactwonderand very much enriched this historyfor me.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Snakes and Ladders is the penultimate historythat features various themes such as women’s standingquo and exploring them via instrumentof the urban fancysub-genre. An engagingpartand one, which sets up the next historyThe jehovahPlanet. This historyis the biggest one of the assemblageand is the only one using the first individualperspective. This historyfocuses on religion, human believingsystems and the worldof androids, the authorquite skillfully mines these aspects to bestowthe readers some questions to considerabout.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Overall this was an engaginghistoryassemblagethat encompasses various genre pieces and enough inventivenessto keep the readers immersed in the worlds created. Karen Azinger’s plainreally helps in the setting of each historyand also manages to at handa different temperto each partas well. The only thing that draws a mouthfulof commentfrom these stories is that they are predictable to a certain stepand that perhaps is the chiefdisadvantageabout this collection.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> CONCLUSION: Karen Azinger’s briefhistoryassemblageis definitely a advantageousway for readers to get themselves acquainted with her work. Focusing on a broadorderof themes as well as different genres, she manages to clothea certain aggregateof gravitas in each of her stories to make them an engagingprotuberanceto read. Definitely recommended for fans of her debut and for all readers who want to perusean selectingassemblageand reveala new authorin the process.

Mental health jokes
After hearing that one of the patients in a mental hospital had saved another from a suicide attempt by pulling him out of a bathtub, the hospital director reviewed the rescuer's file and called him into his office. "Mr. Haroldson, your records and your heroic behavior indicate that you're ready to go home. I'm only sorry that the man you saved later killed himself with a rope around the neck." "Oh, he didn't kill himself," Mr. Haroldson replied. "I hung him up to dry."
