Overall I was fairly unimpressed with Black Blade Blues. I disliked the main character, she was immature and made terrible choices and had a crap attitude. Now i know some of those choices were out of her hands (which i think is a lazy plot line to create extra drama) but that doesn't excuse everyth...
I was given this book as a good lesbian protag book and obviously, as both a woman and a lesbian, I was very interested in it. Now, I want to say first that it isn't that at all. It is a book written by an obviously heterosexual man who mistakenly conflates "strong female hero" with "woman written a...
I was really about to give up on this book series and it was only because I am a stubborn bastard that really really do not want to give up on what I have started that I read this book in the series. One could of course also be kind and say that I was just curious to find out where the story went an...
This is another one of those books that I have read because I am stubborn and do not really want to let go of a book series that I have started even though I might not be overly thrilled about it. I was certainly not overly thrilled about the first book in this book series. The part that put me off ...
This book had some real promise. Magic, fantasy creatures and a young woman discovering not only that these things are for real but also that she is part of the legends into which she are about to step. Sounded quite okay to me. Okay, when reading the existing reviews there were some warning lights ...

Pitts reintroduces the reader the world of dragons and these are still the fire breathing type from the Norse mythical stories.Sarah Beauhall is a black smith by trade and by passion. She loves the feel of the hammer in her hand as she mold and shapes metal into new objects...
There's alot of interesting things going on in this book, but I'm not sure all of it came together well.I was a little blindsided by the f/f relationship, nothing in the blurb or cover suggested as such to me, which was a pleasant surprise. The author, despite being a man, writes the female perspect...
A delightful read. One of the funnest I've read all year. Great humor, action and characterization. Strong coming of age and emotional elements and a great creativity toward using old tropes in new ways. Recommended.
I feel like I need to preface this review with a caveat - I adored the first 250 pages of Black Blade Blues by J.A. Pitts. Utterly adored it. The last third of it, however, was not as good. Allow me... Sarah Beauhall works as a Blacksmith doing whatever odd job she can get. Stints in the Renaissance...
