Night Angel Nemesis
Return to the New York Times bestselling world of the Night Angel, where master assassin Kylar embarks on a new adventure as the High King Logan Gyre calls on him to save his kingdom and the hope of peace.
After the war that cost him so much, Kylar Stern is broken and alone. He's determined not to kill again, but an impending amnesty will pardon the one murderer he can't let walk free. He promises himself this is the last time. One last hit to tie up the loose ends of his old, lost life.
But Kylar's best--and maybe only--friend, the High King Logan Gyre, needs him. To protect a fragile peace, Logan’s new kingdom, and the king’s twin sons, he needs Kylar to secure a powerful magical artifact that was unearthed during the war.
With rumors that a ka'kari may be found, adversaries both old and new are on the hunt. And if Kylar has learned anything, it’s that ancient magics are better left in the hands of those he can trust.
If he does the job right, he won’t need to kill at all. This isn’t an assassination—it’s a heist.
But some jobs are too hard for an easy conscience, and some enemies are so powerful the only answer lies in the shadows.

Brent Weeks
Brent Weeks, a name synonymous with thrilling epic fantasy, crafts worlds filled with intricate magic, complex characters, and unexpected twists that have captivated readers around the globe. From the release of his debut novel, The Way of Shadows, Weeks has carved out a distinctive niche in the genre, earning a reputation for his fast-paced, emotionally charged storytelling and a willingness to tackle the gray areas of morality and power.
Weeks’s journey into the world of writing was far from straightforward. Born in 1977 in Montana, USA, he didn’t immediately set out to be an author. His early career began with a degree in English and a string of jobs that didn’t quite ignite his passion for writing. But it was during a quiet stretch of time, a mix of frustration and inspiration, that Weeks found his voice. It was then that he began working on the Night Angel Trilogy, which would go on to be his first major success. The trilogy—brimming with assassins, betrayal, and political intrigue—became a breakout hit, introducing readers to a dark and morally ambiguous world where the lines between good and evil often blurred.
