Ever wondered what it's like to be born into a family of assassins? Gin Bombay knows, and now she's sharing her family's deepest, darkest secrets . . .

The Bombay Family Bedtime Stories continue with My Heroes Have Always Been Hitmen! Four more family stories have been released from the vault, including Rio Bombay, wanna-be cowboy and wild west gunslinger; Caspian, the first Bombay to have to take out another Bombay; Aberdeen, the hoop-skirted Antebellum Assassin; and Dublin Bombay, the Scottish Viking Slayer!

One Bombay is just the same as another

Although the setting changes from western to Viking, the plot is the same old one of the Bombays killing … but only the bad people. There’s a half hearted attempt to give each Bombay a unique personality,
but there’s little humor and no character (good or bad) that I’ll remember past next week. The use of a female narrator for the MMCs was also difficult to hear.

I prefer the novellas featuring the modern day Bombay family because their personalities have been better developed. Plus, the pop-culture references make them funnier.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
