Series: Lightbringer

In a world where magic is tightly controlled, the most powerful man in history must choose between his kingdom and his son - in the first book of the New York Times bestselling Lightbringer series. Perfect for fans of Brandon Sanderson, Robin Hobb and Joe Abercrombie.

EVERY LIGHT CASTS A SHADOW.

Guile is the Prism, the most powerful man in the world. He is high priest and emperor, a man whose power, wit, and charm are all that preserves a tenuous peace. Yet Prisms never last, and Guile knows exactly how long he has left to live.

When Guile discovers he has a son, born in a far kingdom after the war that put him in power, he must decide how much he's willing to pay to protect a secret that could tear his world apart.

With over four million copies sold, Brent Weeks is one of the fastest-selling fantasy authors of all time.

has a style of immediacy and detail that pulls the reader relentlessly

into the story. He doesn't allow you to look away' Robin Hobb

'I

was mesmerised from start to finish. Unforgettable characters, a plot

that kept me guessing, non-stop action and the kind of in-depth

storytelling that makes me admire a writers' work' Terry Brooks

'Weeks has truly cemented his place among the great epic fantasy writers of our time' British Fantasy Society
