"If you’re looking for a story about nice people doing nice things, this isn’t for you. You will be burdened with an unreliable narrator who will disappoint and repel you at every turn. I’m going to introduce you to monsters. Real ones. I’m going to tell you stories about hurting people, and if you like those stories, it means you’re bad. Shall we go on? Good. I hate people who pretend they’re something they’re not." So begins THE LESSER DEAD (https://amzn.to/3cjIsty) by Christopher Buehlman, our guest this episode. It's an amazing book, as is THOSE ACROSS THE RIVER (https://amzn.to/3qp6Hwd). And be sure to pre-order his upcoming book THE BLACKTONGUE THIEF (https://amzn.to/2Kj29bn): "Set in a world of goblin wars, stag-sized battle ravens, and assassins who kill with deadly tattoos, Christopher Buehlman's The Blacktongue Thief begins a 'dazzling' (Robin Hobb) fantasy adventure unlike any other."
