Executive Assistant Iris Volume 1

by David Wohl

  • She's a secretary, bodyguard, and assassin all rolled into one! Meet Iris, a
    loyal and ruthlessly efficient subordinate to her powerful, corporate boss Mr.
    Ching. In the modern, cutthroat corporate world, today's CEO needs an
    intimidating edge to stay on top, and Iris is more than well-trained to oblige
    the demand of her employer — including murder. However, Iris discovers the
    man she has dutifully served for most of her life is far more corrupt than the
    people she is sworn to protect him from. Now torn between her loyalties to the
    only person she's ever served, and the new life she realizes she's ready to
    explore on her own, she must make a choice that could ultimately lead to her
    demise. Iris' treacherous journey for redemption is set in motion as the entire
    first volume of the critically acclaimed action-adventure series is collected
    here for the very first time!

I received a copy of Executive Assistant Iris through NetGalley in exchange for a fair and honest review.

Executive Assistant Iris is one of those series that has an absolutely fantastic core concept. Think about it; an assistant that was trained to do basically everything. Iris can be anything from secretary to bodyguard, all the way to assassin (which sounds a bit more proactive than usual, but no complaints here). Unfortunately the series so far hasn’t had the best follow through on that core concept. It’s been interesting and fun to read in that there has been lots of exciting fight scenes. But those scenes don’t really have any impact because I haven’t been given a reason to care too much about Iris or those around her.
I do think that this series is still worth watching, because the concept is sound and there’s always a chance that things could turn from okay to absolutely amazing. Personally, I’m rooting for this one.
