Brent Weeks returns to the New York Times bestselling world of the Night Angel in Night Angel Nemesis, following master assassin Kylar on a new adventure - as the High King Logan Gyre calls on him to save his kingdom and the hope of peace.\nAfter 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.\nBut 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.\nWith 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.\nIf he does the job right, he won't need to kill at all. This isn't an assassination - it's a heist.\nBut some jobs are too hard for an easy conscience, and some enemies are so powerful the only answer lies in the shadows.\nPraise for Brent Weeks:\n'Brent Weeks has a style of immediacy and detail that pulls the reader relentlessly into his story.

Brent Weeks studied at Hillsdale College, before brief stints walking the earth like Caine from Kung-Fu, also tending bar, and corrupting the youth. (Not at the same time.) He started writing on napkins and, eventually, someone paid him for it. Brent doesn't own cats or wear a ponytail.
