About this ebook
An Instant New York Times, USA Today, and Indie Bestseller
Enter a darker age with New York Times bestselling author Christopher Buehlman's Between Two Fires, a medieval horror adventure unlike anything on the shelf.
And Lucifer said: “Let us rise against Him now in all our numbers, and pull the walls of heaven down...”
The year is 1348.
Thomas, a disgraced knight, has found a young girl alone in a dead Norman village. An orphan of the Black Death, and an almost unnerving picture of innocence, she tells Thomas that plague is only part of a larger cataclysm—that the fallen angels under Lucifer are rising in a second war on heaven, and that the world of men has fallen behind the lines of conflict. Is it delirium or is it faith?
She believes she has seen the angels of God. She believes the righteous dead speak to her in dreams. And now she has convinced the faithless Thomas to shepherd her across a depraved landscape to Avignon.
There, she tells Thomas, she will fulfill her mission: to confront the evil that has devastated the earth, and to restore to this betrayed, murderous knight the nobility and hope of salvation he long abandoned.
As hell unleashes its wrath, and as the true nature of the girl is revealed, Thomas will find himself on a macabre battleground of angels and demons, saints, and the risen dead, and in the midst of a desperate struggle for nothing less than the soul of man.

Incredibly poorly written. The author rips the historical element from the reader immediately by making the angels "real." I was excited for the book because of the prospect of a person being in contact with an angel. That plot line leaves a million paths open, cosmic horror being one of them, but making God and the angels real before the story takes away any anticipation and honestly for me any reason to keep reading. The plague being a response from the angels against God is only interesting if it's at the end of the story. Also "brain him," is one of the worst descriptions of killing an animal I have ever read.

bravo! 👏 I have never wanted to read a book twice, but I can't wait to start it all over again. Bought the hard cover for my library.
