About this Event
Fantasy Bookclub Scotland Presents: Quicksilver and Brimstone
Edinburgh Bookclub Event | Sunday 8th March | 14:00 - 16:00
Book gremlins… it’s time.
This month we’re diving headfirst into Callie Hart’s dark, addictive world with a double book club for Quicksilver and Brimstone - aka morally grey characters, questionable life choices, and vibes that are aggressively unwell (complimentary).
These books pull us into a brutal, high-stakes fantasy where power is currency, trust is dangerous, and attraction is very much a liability. Quicksilver lays the foundations with sharp tension, dangerous alliances, and characters who absolutely cannot be trusted... while Brimstone takes everything you thought you understood and sets it on fire.
Together, these books deliver everything we love:
- ruthless power struggles
- feral chemistry and slow-burn tension
- betrayal that actually hurts
- and men who should come with warning labels
About the Books
In a world shaped by violence, magic, and ambition, survival depends on knowing when to fight, when to submit, and when to burn everything to the ground. As secrets unravel and loyalties fracture, the line between enemy and ally blurs... and desire becomes just as dangerous as any blade. Read together, Quicksilver and Brimstone offer a dark, immersive fantasy experience that will leave you unwell in the best possible way.
Join us for an evening of unhinged theories, morally grey character defence, spice-level debates, and collective screaming. Whether you devoured these books in one sitting or are still thinking about that moment, this is the space to unpack it all with people who truly get it.
Bring your opinions, your tabs, and your tolerance for chaos, you’re going to need them.
