The Eternal Assassin Chronicles: The Lives & Times

By Andrew Darlington

From the Author:

My Eternal Assassin was originally intended to be a series of tales built around the time-spanning figure of Adsiduo Sicarius, the kind of fusion of ideas that - just maybe - might have slotted into the genre of science-fantasy, carrying some elements of fantasy yet strung together on a SF premise.

The 'eternal assassin' is a symbiosis. In my conception, an alien parasitic organism that shifts from a doomed host to a new host when threat-levels determine such a transition, absorbing the memories and certain elements of its transient hosts, yet also virtually immortal. Hence there is a succession of new character-traits, yet a continuity of virtually limitless longevity.
