The Language of Knives by Haralambi Markov
5.0
That's just ... wow ... read this. It's gory, but read this.

Looking back, this bloody gem has stayed with me, stuck stubbornly in my mind, all year. I underrated this one for some reason when I first read it. Correcting that now. Five stars, easily. I don't want to review it or undress it in the slightest. (Not that it doesn't deserve it, but that it just might be best experienced with no prior explanation.) Really, just read it.
I wonder if there is a way to get this story onto the 2016 Hugo ballot?
