A review by bearowl
The Blacktongue Thief by Christopher Buehlman

adventurous dark funny medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

A bit over the top and gratuitous at times, but the author is also very good at writing great action and tense sequences, so I found myself engaged despite finding it a bit too puerile at times.
