"Writing this review is a little hard, because most of the individual pieces of this book were really enjoyable. However, those pieces felt really disjointed and the transition between them felt lazy and confusing, and the ending was infuriating. The "

"I loved the previous entry, The Blacktongue Thief, but I really struggled with this. My largest issue was that the overarching plot does not move an inch. Things of course happen to the two leads, but at the end of the book, the characters are exactl"

Well that was an enormous waste of time. We start with Kinch and Galva facing a mountain range they need to cross. Due to extraordinary events, they do not cross them; they get completely diverted from that quest, dragged into unfamiliar lands. Events ...more |

of
The Thrice-Bound Fool (Blacktongue #2):
"I waited 5 years for this sequel and was jumping from happiness when I got the ARC. Sadly, it can be described as: middle book syndrome. My year of disappointing sequels continues, it seems.

“Every fairy tale has blood flecked on its muzzle. Sometimes it’s licked up in the second before the story begins— a queen slowly bleeding out onto her birthing bed, a plague having laid waste to a land before “Once upon a time” slouches from the dark. But every so often, one can trace the thick flow of blood as it seeps from the pages.”
