The Thrice-Bound Fool
is the epic, rollicking next chapter in the bestselling and “awesome as hell” (Nicholas Eames) fantasy adventure series that began with The Blacktongue Thief.

Professional thief and inveterate trickster Kinch Na Shannack has always enjoyed a good book. But now his life, and the future of all of Manreach, depends on deciphering a very bad book indeed; a stolen, sentient tome that tries to kill him every time he opens it—and often when it’s closed.

Galva, veteran of the goblin wars and death’s sworn handmaiden, has vowed to protect Kinch while he mines the book for its dark magic and even darker secrets. She does so not for Kinch’s sake—though the cheeky bastard is growing on her—but because the book is the key to stopping the shadowy tyrants out to kill the queen she serves—and loves.

The ruthless, all-seeing Taker’s Guild dogs their every step, and thief and knight must flee the known world entirely if they hope to succeed. But trouble finds Kinch wherever he goes, and the pair may have traded the devil they know for horrors far darker and hungrier as they enter lands unknown.

  • Better and better

    Each one of these stories is better than the last. Read them in published order. Read them in chronological order. Read them standing on one foot. Just read. They are magnificent.
  • If you like fantasy, and don’t read this, I’ll box your nose.

    First, start from the top with “The Daughters’ War” followed by “The Black-tongue Thief”. This book is not the end of the series. They are cleverly written to be quick-reads while covering a great deal, as the author doesn’t waste time world-building a high fantasy setting when it’s not needed. There’s a good deal of humor and wit stitching this grand adventure together. So if you enjoy logic and hard realism from your fantasy, maybe skip the series. For seasoned readers of fantasy: expect a narrow-focused tale of 1-2 characters that doesn’t change POV’s. Little to no contrivance, and plenty of cleverness to make you smirk. No flipping back and forth between maps and lists of terms, just a dang fine read.
