![]() ![]() ![]() The Blacktongue Thief, through the medium of first person narrative, is told in a very distinctive voice (that of Kinch Na Shannack). ![]() What do a thief, a mercenary and a blind cat have in common? It might sound like the start of a bad joke, but it’s the meat of a good book. I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. My Rating of ‘The Blacktongue Thief’: 4 out of 5 Common enemies and uncommon dangers force thief and knight on an epic journey where goblins hunger for human flesh, krakens hunt in dark waters, and honour is a luxury few can afford. Unsuccessful in his robbery and lucky to escape with his life, Kinch now finds his fate entangled with Galva’s. She is searching for her queen, missing since a distant northern city fell to giants. Galva is a knight, a survivor of the brutal goblin wars, and handmaiden of the goddess of death. His debt has driven him to lie in wait by the old forest road, planning to rob the next traveler that crosses his path.īut today, Kinch Na Shannack has picked the wrong mark. ![]() Kinch Na Shannack owes the Takers Guild a small fortune for his education as a thief, which includes (but is not limited to) lock-picking, knife-fighting, wall-scaling, fall-breaking, lie-weaving, trap-making, plus a few small magics. ![]()
