Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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. 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. His debt has driven him to lie in wait by the old forest road, planning to rob the next traveler that crosses his path. But today, Kinch Na Shannack has picked the wrong mark. Galva is a knight, a survivor of the brutal goblin wars, and handmaiden of the goddess of death. She is searching for her queen, missing since a distant northern city fell to giants. Unsuccessful in his robbery and lucky to escape with his life, Kinch now finds his fate entangled with Galva's. 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 honor is a luxury few can afford. “The Blacktongue Thief is fast and fun and filled with crazy magic. I can't wait to see what Christopher Buehlman does next." - Brent Weeks, New York Times bestselling author of the Lightbringer series At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Book excerpt: REX I know what it’s like to live on the dark side of that pretty line between black and white. Retirement from the assassin’s life doesn’t change that. These hands have seen too much violence to ever wash them clean. How ironic that I’m afraid of blood. All I want now is a normal life, and I’ve got plenty of cash to make it happen… But I have no clue what “normal” is supposed to look like, and I’m running out of time. The girl whose life I destroyed—the only girl I’ve ever cared for—is the one bright side to my life these days. Maybe that’s why I haven’t put a stop to her desperate campaign for revenge. Or maybe I just like watching my beautiful good-girl-with-a-vengeance try to play bad… MASON For the past ten years, my only goal has been to take down the man who stole my brother’s heart, in the most literal sense, but all my brilliant plans tend to turn out more like bad pranks. When I snag a job at my enemy’s world famous research facility, I’m sure this is the chance I’ve been waiting for. But nothing is as it seems in Rex’s strange world, and I quickly start to question everything I’ve spent the past decade believing. Now my conflicting feelings threaten to unravel everything. Will I finally get my revenge, or will my heart be the next one Rex steals—this time with a kiss? HEART THIEF is an enemies-to-lovers romantic suspense. It is the first book in a series about a team of ex-assassins and their hunt for a normal life while their old one still has them in its clutches. They will keep you at the edge of your seat and grip your emotions as they try to put their scarred past behind them. But they will also catch you laughing in the most inappropriate situations, as situations often are when they include people who know how to kill in a number of ways. Each book in the series will feature a new member of their band of ex-assassins and has a HEA. They can be read as standalones but I promise you won’t want to miss even a second!
