Description

From New York Times Bestselling author Brent Weeks...

Kylar Stern has rejected the assassin's life. The Godking's successful coup has left Kylar's master, Durzo, and his best friend, Logan, dead. He is starting over: new city, new friends and new profession.

But when he learns that Logan might actually be alive and in hiding, Kylar is faced with an agonizing choice: will he give up the way of shadows forever and live in peace with his new family, or will he risk everything by taking on the ultimate hit?

  • Great transitional book

    (There are some typos in this book. A forgotten period here, a misspelling there, but it’d need a careful eye to catch them all; just getting that out first.) You could technically say this book is primarily filler to set up the last book, & you’d technically be right in my opinion, but you wouldn’t be doing justice to the depth this book has. It takes all of the existing characters & deepens them, makes you care about them, understand them, makes you feel their struggle & their growth. It is a textbook example of character development done right, & it isn’t boring in the slightest. This book is a worthy installment in the Night Angel trilogy, & I recommend you read all three.

    this book has one of the best endings that i have ever read. i literally screamed and scared my wife when certain things happened. i am writing this review and as soon as i am done, i will start on book 3. this is just wow, there is so much. love, comedy, gore, taboo subjects, and all so very well blended. nothing was overdone and you can tell the author was not in this for the "shock" factor, just a great story. O-mazing
  • Kylar is best action hero

    I have read all three books four times a piece, and with each read they only get better then before. Worth every star.

    I don't usually rate anything, but I enjoyed it that much that I felt it necessary to give 5 stars.

    I was sceptic at first but I could not stop reading all of them! All three in just under a month. I would strongly recommend them to everyone
