I'm reading The Way of Shadows by Brent Weeks. Liking it so far. Assassins mixed with some as of yet not very clear magic.

Fantastic series. He gets around to explaining the magic system later on, but I like how he lets it come out more organically. He also just released a fourth book in the series a few months ago.

There's a prequel novella that's pretty great as well, recommend you check that out after you finish the first 3 books.
