Night Angel Nemesis

More about the book

Brent Weeks returns to the bestselling world of the Night Angel in a gripping new adventure featuring master assassin Kylar. After a devastating war, Kylar is broken and alone, vowing not to kill again. However, an impending amnesty threatens to release a murderer he cannot allow to roam free. He resolves that this will be his final task: one last hit to resolve the remnants of his past life. His best friend, High King Logan Gyre, urgently needs his help to protect a fragile peace and safeguard the king's twin sons. Kylar must secure a powerful magical artifact unearthed during the war, with rumors of a ka'kari drawing both old and new adversaries into the fray. Kylar knows that ancient magics are best entrusted to those he can rely on, and if he executes the job correctly, he may avoid bloodshed altogether. This mission is not an assassination but a heist, though some tasks weigh heavily on the conscience, and formidable enemies often lurk in the shadows. Praise for Weeks highlights his status as a leading figure in epic fantasy, with his storytelling praised for its immediacy and relentless pace.
