![]() ![]() Locus If the Canterbury Tales were filled to the brim with magic and mystery, you couldn't find a better collection than what Milford has produced here. Publishers Weekly (starred review) Intricately written, gorgeously crafted, and captivating from start to finish, The Raconteur's Commonplace Book is the kind of title that remains in your heart. ![]() Kirkus Reviews (starred review) At once a deeply satisfying standalone and a smart addition to Milford's expansive world, this elegant feat of telescopic storytelling serves as both map and key, offering singular stories of consequence that slowly, artfully reveal an immersive mystery-one that will dazzle seasoned Milford fans and kindle new ones. Booklist At times wryly humorous and at others marvelously unnerving and superbly menacing, this novel delights. The stories are purely enjoyable, playfully toying with folktale conventions, offering a compelling variety of genres, and allowing each teller's voice to clearly come through in their tale. The wide-reaching world building of Milford's Nagspeake novels gets even more expansive. Nothing is what it seems and theres always more than one side to the story as a group of strangers trapped in an inn slowly reveal their secrets in this new standalone mystery set in the world of the best-selling Greenglass House, from a National Book Award nominee and Edgar Award–winning author. ![]()
