Om avsnittet

Christopher Buehlman’s bestselling 2012 novel "Between Two Fires" brilliantly combines medieval fantasy with religious horror, presenting a world where the devastating Black Death is actually driven by a hidden war between heaven and hell. The narrative follows a cynical, disgraced knight named Thomas who teams up with Delphine, a young girl capable of divine visions, as they journey toward Avignon to deliver her to the Pope. Along the way, the pair encounters a terrifying assortment of demonic creatures and bizarre supernatural threats that mirror the deep historical superstitions of fourteenth-century France. Although the book gradually grew into a modern classic over the past decade, its unique blend of gritty medieval atmosphere and visceral monstrous danger makes it an ideal candidate for a film adaptation, ideally directed by someone skilled in historical horror like Robert Eggers.

"Open a book. Discover a world."
