 As usually I'm late for the party because I always wait too long to start a series. Grave Mercy is one of those books that everyone is talking about and you must live under a rock not to hear about it. I have on multiple occasions but considering this is a book about assassins I knew it'd be a right match for me. 
 This book takes to Brittany in century and time of great intrigues and fights between courts. Ismae,a girl who managed to escape her father and survive all the years of torture is now ready for a new period in her life. Convent of St. Mortain is not only a nunnery but also a school for assassins, girl assassins who were very valuable for courts and nobles at the time. Being sent for a assignment is a dream for them all, but three friends Ismae, Sybella and Annith (you will notice that they are narrators each book in this series) and after Sybella leaves Ismae has finally got a chance. She has to play a deadly game and make sure that she is on the right side, especially when there is so many sides. 
 Ismae is a character I connected with right away. I could feel her pain of being abandoned and tortured all her life and her ambition and eagerness to kill stands on right basis. But despite that she is merciful and it was so good to see her out of her element, even though it was obvious. 
 That leads us to only one problem I had with this book, it's predictability. This is one of those books you know the ending as soon as you crack the first page. But despite that world and charters building was highly enjoyable.
