## Description

Review: Dark Horror Fantasy - Between Two Fires is an absolute triumph in historical fantasy. Christopher Buehlman weaves a rich, immersive tale set in medieval Europe, full of dark magic, complex characters, and morally gray choices that kept me hooked from start to finish. The world-building is incredible — you can feel the grit, danger, and atmosphere of the time period while also being drawn into supernatural elements that feel perfectly integrated. Fans of dark fantasy will appreciate the novel’s vibe, which has strong Diablo- and Dark Souls-like elements: terrifying creatures, haunting landscapes, and a pervasive sense of dread that makes every encounter feel tense and high-stakes. The supernatural threats are both mysterious and deadly, giving the story a thrilling, game-like intensity. The protagonist is compelling and nuanced, and the supporting cast is just as memorable, each with their own motives and flaws. The pacing is excellent, balancing tense action sequences with quieter, character-driven moments that deepen the story. Buehlman’s writing is sharp, evocative, and often darkly humorous, which adds a unique voice to the novel. What I loved most was how unpredictable the story is — nothing feels clichéd, and the twists genuinely surprised me. It’s a book that makes you think, feel, and sometimes shiver, all at once. If you love dark fantasy with heart, danger, and unforgettable characters, especially with video game-style dark fantasy elements, Between Two Fires is a must-read. It’s easily one of the best novels I’ve read this year.
Review: Horrific and divine - Finished this last night and I can't begin to say how much I loved it. Felt properly medieval in a way that many fantasy-flavoured books don't, and explored the war between heaven and hell in incredibly evocative and creative ways. The characters are all heavily flawed but incredibly compelling; even the minor characters are well-drawn. Uses the plague and its horrors to get properly gruesome, while the demons and their torments are their own brand of reality-bending upset. Five stars all round!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good
*by B***T on 4 September 2024*

There's a lot to recommend this. The basic premise is terrific, the writing is good, the tale is nicely gritty. The only real weakness is the story arc. You know the SORT of ending you're going to get early on - and between that early point and the end, there are few developments, no real surprises, just a lot of *stuff* happening on the way to the (inevitable) conclusion: and that stuff, honestly, could have been better, more imaginative, given the book's great set-up. This is still a good read, I don't regret buying it, but could have been better.
