Praise for Thirty-Three Teeth
“Paiboun’s droll wit and Cotterill’s engaging plot twists keep
things energetic; the rather grisly murders are offset by comedy .
. . The elegant, elderly Paiboun seems an unlikely vehicle to carry
a series . . . but he does so with charm and aplomb.”
—Entertainment Weekly
“Keeps a perfect balance between the modern mysteries of forensic
science and the ancient secrets of the spirit world.”
—The New York Times Book Review
“The series neatly manages to include an engrossing
mystery—political and folk history and a lot of sly satire.”
—Day to Day, NPR
“[Cotterill’s] second is as entertaining as his debut.”
—Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review
