Book excerpt: Assassins: The Blood-Soaked History of the World’s Deadliest Cult takes you deep into the shadowy world of history’s most feared killers. Born from a secretive sect known as the hashashin, these assassins operated from hidden fortresses, striking terror into the hearts of kings, sultans, and emperors alike. Led by the enigmatic Hasan-i Sabbah, their cold-blooded precision and brutal tactics shaped the political landscape of the Middle East for centuries. In this gripping, blood-chilling account, you’ll uncover the truth behind the rumors of drug-fueled killers and whispered legends of invisible blades. The Assassins didn’t just murder—they turned death into a strategic tool of fear, manipulating entire empires from the shadows. But how did this cult rise to power, and what caused their ultimate downfall at the hands of the Mongol hordes? From the siege of Alamut to their influence on modern terrorism, Assassins is a dark and thrilling exploration of the line between myth and reality. If you're fascinated by secret societies, real-life conspiracies, or the origins of modern warfare tactics, this is a must-read.
