Short story review: The Effect-Displacement Assassin, by Danielle Ste-Just



An excellent piece of writing, startlingly original and well done - but I did find the ending a little weak. In my opinion, the place to have ended the story would have been on the presentation of the award - the terrible moment of the scientist realising she had spoiled her own lifetime triumph would have been the most climactic ending, and running on after it, I felt, robbed the story of much of its impact.

The Effect-Displacement Assassin is available from AMAZON. While you're there, you can preorder my romance/crime novella, Operation Tomcat, which will release on 11 December.
