This is a well written Fantasy story. By the end of the first chapter I had got to know the main character and the world we were in and it had thoroughly grabbed my attention. It has a fairly complicated magic system having to do with colored light, so that aspect takes a while to absorb (or did for...
I started reading The Black Prism because one of my English students recommended it to me. I’m a big fan of fantasy, and I had been in a book funk lately. Anything I tried, I just couldn’t get into. However, I started to read this book. I put it down, and kept thinking about it, and that was when I ...
This book has a pretty standard fantasy story line: Young boy, who thinks he is nobody and treated as such by everyone he knows, finds out he is special due to his birth or has powerful magical abilities and is thrown into the danger and politics of the elite in his world.

An excellent 5 star epic fantasy, a 788 page book not for the faint hearted.

There were a few moments throu...
After more than a month of making very little progress, I'm giving up. I think I'm done with this book and, to an extent, done with Brent Weeks. (Oh, wait. Is that a ToS violation? Oh, wait again. This isn't Goodreads... and yet I have no idea what BookLikes' ToS are.) Prejudices are hard to put a...
I can't say enough great things about the writing of Brent Weeks. I think I've become a fangirl. I loved The Black Prism and I shouldn't have been surprised given how The Night Angel series has been one of my great finds this year.So like Weeks requested I'm trying to spread the word far and wide th...
