Yet another great book. I love how you write Brent Weeks! Not sure where you got the “Gunner speak” but it’s a hoot. Simon puts so much life into each character. Bravo!

Story
Gavin Guile is dying. He'd thought he had five years left - now he has less than one. With 50,0000 refugees, a bastard son, and an ex-fiancée 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 16 years ago.

Dang it Brent Weeks! You have me reading and taking notes and loving these books, keeping me up late :) My husband said I might like them, when I was looking for my next book to read. I love them! Only three other series have I stayed up late and devoured any books: RA Salvatore with Drizzt books, Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time series as Karin Slaughters Cobb county series cont with Will Trent series. I love your style, the characters, you wit and charm!

I was so happy that there was another book. I really fell hard for Drizzt, Jarlaxl and the characters of all these 43 books. I’m hoping the ending will bring me more of my beloved characters and the tales of Drizzt. Thank you R A Salvatore, for me learning to love reading. Thanks for getting Victor Bevine to read them, he brings even more life to my lives characters. I so pray you keep these going. They still have so many more adventures. Oh and apart Four- the best of Drizzts writings ❤️❤️❤️
