I'm not sure I'm going to able to write proper reviews of the individual books in this series -- this is one of those where the entire series likely needs to be reviewed. Not really a cliffhanger ending to this one, but definitely not one to read as a standalone. Mostly everything and everyone ju...
A 2nd novel in a series the way they should all be. It takes everything I enjoyed about the 1st novel (magic system, interesting characters, action scenes) and ramps that up several notches for a truly exciting novel. The narrator also knocks it out of the park and has decided that I need to listen ...

Another epic 700 page fantasy novel, an excellent twisting plot reminiscent of George R.R. Martin without the bumping off of main characters.

This review assumes you read The Black Prism. The story continues from the first book. Our hero Gavin is losing his powers while his son is gaining them as they prepare for war against the Color Prince. Apart from advancing the plot, it also does well in revealing more of the world. The previous...
A superior novel to the first for certain, The Blinding Knife develops and improves the characters, world and ideas of the first book to an extent that is fully worthwhile. However, the ultimate payoff is not yet seen in this novel and there are the odd rough patches where the glimmer of storytellin...
Fantastic second instalment in The Lightbringer series. I enjoyed every moment of it and kudos to Brent Weeks that he surprised me often. One nugget of information I had already figured out and I was pretty pleased to be right. The book ended on a cliffhanger and I can't wait for Book #3 to be out t...
I'm going out on a limb here by saying that I'm a fanboy. The limb of my respect is very strong and thick, so even Kip can climb out far above the colorful land below and never need to worry about breaking the tree.Kip was always the underdog, and who doesn't love the underdog? His story is by far t...
The story carries on where the first book left off. War is crashing into their lives and it's hard for Gavin Guile to keep saving his country and people when he's dying and his colors are disappearing. It's a game of deception and lies. Nothing is as it seems.This was a fantastic sequel. The charact...
