Review: Between Two Fires by Christopher Buehlman

January 14, 2025 by chilcottharry Leave a Comment

In just one novel, Christopher Buehlman cements himself as an author that I’d consider to be of exceptional talent… riveting, visceral and, ultimately, hopeful!

Review: The Blacktongue Thief (Blacktongue #1) by Christopher Buehlman

July 30, 2021 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

This book is absolutely *hilarious*, mostly in a darkly comedic sort of way mind you. Truly, I found myself chuckling right from the first pages at Kinch’s snark and commentary. Sometimes I caught myself laughing really loud too and that was definitely what I wanted as a low effort read these days.

Review: The Blacktongue Thief (Blacktongue #1) by Christopher Buehlman

May 23, 2021 by Jared Besse Leave a Comment

The first thing you notice when beginning The Blacktongue Thief is the narrative structure. Written in first person with fourth-wall breaking type style, it definitely takes a bit of an adjustment. However, I’m a huge fan of this form of writing. I’ve always enjoyed first person narrative but when it feels like someone is telling the story directly to YOU, it makes the book even more engaging. In fact, it took me longer to read this book than usual because I didn’t want to miss a word of what our protagonist Kinch is telling you.

The Blacktongue Thief is the first installment in Christopher Buehlman’s new Blacktongue series, published by Tor Books. I have to say I really love this book, as it has so many aspects of an adventure fantasy that I enjoy.
