At times touching, at times brutal, this well-researched and thought-provoking novel is further proof of Lüthi’s gift for exploring the darkest recesses of the Middle Ages.

I'd like to give a shout-out to a superb antho that published this week, which I'm three quarters of the way through.
This World of Vile Wonder, edited by @coyhall.bsky.social, reads like a true classic!
