About this ebook

Gavin's powers are fading and his end draws near as war rages across the satrapies in the second novel of the NYT bestselling Lightbringer series by Brent Week.

Gavin Guile is dying.

He'd thought he had five years left -- now he has less than one. With fifty thousand refugees, a bastard son, and an ex-fiance who may have learned his darkest secret, Gavin has problems on every side. All magic in the world is running wild and threatens to destroy the Seven Satrapies. Worst of all, the old gods are being reborn, and their army of color wights is unstoppable. The only salvation may be the brother whose freedom and life Gavin stole sixteen years ago.

If you loved the action and adventure of the Night Angel trilogy, you will devour this incredible epic fantasy series by Brent Weeks.

This book and its predecessor are both fantastic reads. The world and its magic are unique and compelling. The characters are complex and often dark, with many secrets and desires. There are however man parallels between this series and Weeks' Night Angel trilogy but there's nothing really wrong with that. His writing has only gotten better though making this book and the rest of the series one to watch for.

I've read all the digital copies google play has on file, and have enjoyed all of them! Can hardly wait for this one to come to the shelf! Just received an email saying that Brent is having a drawing for five lucky members of his newsletter to receive a free copy before they hit the stores, really Hope I'm one of the lucky ones. Good luck to all!

Brent weeks is an amazing author. His characters are always well developed and easy to form bonds with. Love the way the stories within his books fit together. Well done sir and am looking forward the the end of this trilogu as much as the last one.
