I read that book after reading The Blacktongue Thief, really enjoyed them both, but Between Two Fires was a dark tale of misery.

Yeah I got up to act/part 3, but decided to take a break and now it's been a couple months. I started reading some other stuff so I just haven't had the time to go back. Really well written, just also really slow to pick up steam lol
