Synopsis

Logan Gyre now holds the throne, but Kylar Stern has acquired a powerful new enemy, a goddess bent on the destruction of all that Kylar holds dear in the concluding volume of the Night Angel Trilogy by NYT bestselling author Brent Weeks.

Logan Gyre is king of Cenaria, a country under siege, with a threadbare army and little hope. He has one chance -- a desperate gamble, but one that could destroy his kingdom.

In the north, the new Godking has a plan. If it comes to fruition, no one will have the power to stop him.

Kylar Stern has no choice. To save his friends -- and perhaps his enemies -- he must accomplish the impossible: assassinate a goddess.

Devour this blockbuster tale of assassination and magic by Brent Weeks which has delighted readers all over the world -- with over one million copies in print.

About Brent Weeks

American author, Brent Weeks, had a very normal American upbringing upon being born in Whitefish, Montana in 1977. He developed a love for literature, which we all know can carry its readers to faraway places, escaping the reality of everyday living. He had a great fondness for Edgar Allen Poe, so his genre of writing was fantasy and mystery.

Weeks first novel, The Girl, was a complete failure, but as he says in his biography, skipping the boring parts, he has written eight best-selling novels. They include The Night Angel Trilogy and the Lightbringer Series for which he won several literary awards, and sold millions of copies. He also had a NYT best seller in his 2012 book, The Blinding Knife.

Weeks graduated from Hillsdale College in 2000 with an English degree. Before being a serious author, he taught briefly and was a bartender. He found his girl, Kristi Barnes, they were married and live in Oregon with their two daughters.

Weeks, we have a problem. I didn't like these books anywhere near as much as I hoped I would. In fact, I was disappointed more often than not. The writing was not to my taste at all. I hated most of the people in the story by the end of the first book. I spent much of my reading time being annoyed by......more

Every hint, every misdirection, every barely noticed event comes together in ways that make perfect sense, but surprise you nonetheless. Brent Weeks forces his characters to make impossible, painful decisions at every turn. The type of multilayered decisions where no matter what, somebody will suffe......more

Goodreads review by Derek on February 18, 2022

Thus ends another trilogy. Overall, I was disappointed with Beyond the Shadows. In Way of the Shadows Weeks spun a marvelous tale for us. He hooked me deep. In Shadow's Edge Weeks continued a great story. I felt that Beyond the Shadows was a poor ending to a great beginning. What I felt was the bigg......more

Goodreads review by Deborah on December 15, 2019

Brent Weeks sure knows how to conclude a series. All the lose ends was tied, I can't think of anything that was forgotten for that I applaud the author. I still think the writing could have been better, the POV was still terrible. The world building and writing is as explicit as ever. “Kylar, in t......more
