About this listen

A LEGENDARY ASSASSIN.
AN IMPOSSIBLE HEIST.
THE WAY OF SHADOWS CALLS ONCE MORE.

'One of the best examples of modern fantasy that I've read' Fantasy Faction

New York Times bestselling author Brent Weeks delivers a modern masterpiece of epic fantasy.

After the war that cost him so much, Kylar Stern is broken and alone. He' s determined not to kill again. But Kylar's best - and maybe only - friend, High King Logan Gyre, needs him. To protect a fragile peace, Logan's new kingdom and his twin sons, he needs Kylar to secure a powerful magical artefact that was unearthed during the war.
Adversaries both old and new are on the hunt for this relic, but if Kylar 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.

Liked the character development and the fact that the characters are all slightly, but not entirely flawed.

Complex and compelling finale to the series

Absolutely astounding narrative weave of fantasy and ethical dilemma, laced with true human moral ambiguity. Fantastic.

I have updated my first review of this book to say that I think it’s one of the best I’ve read all year. It is thought provoking, humorous and tragic. Brent Weeks ability to take the reader on such a complicated journey is, as always, aided and abetted by the superb narration of Simon Vance. Thank you to the Weeks/Vance team.

Epic story, superb narration

I cried, and I couldn't put the book down.
highly recommended continuation of the night angel books.

emotional roller-coaster

Firstly what caught me off guard is that the narrator has been changed, it stood out like a sore thumb as i just relistened to the books before this one, i do feel that he could have at least done the effort to pronounce the names the same as they are in the other books, for quite a while i thought Kyler was another persona that Kylar has assumed in the aftermath. Thought he was pretty dumb because so far he went from Kylar to Kyle, to Kyler. Nope turns out the narrator just didn't do his homework in order to keep the listeners immersed. Appart from that he did a great job with the narration. Story wise i loved how dark it was and the gallows humor, absolutely hated the queen's character and feel that it doesn't fit from what we learned of her so far. Can't wait to see how this series unfolds further, would like to see the Chantry get smashed down to rubble so it starts from scratch without all those dirty vipers.

Great book, pretty dark. Different Narrator.

I loved the pov tale and the sassy ka’kari it reminded me of the footnotes jay kristoff uses a lot in the nevernight series. Some lines had me literally laughing out loud and other parts had me holding my breath.
Simon Vance reads with so much passion and sense of urgency where required it can’t help but get your heart racing.
Highly recommend!

Couldn’t put it down

I couldn’t stop listening. I am really invested in Kyla’s story. I dislike how even though this was a mammoth book. It had to come to an end. Now I have to wait for the next instalment. But hey, I guess I should be grateful that there are at least 2 more to come. Let’s hope they’re both 30hr listens also. Thanks Mr Weeks. Best one yet imo

Great from start to finish

Clear, easy to discern characters, captures the despair of the story. Had me hooked from start to finish.

The narration

Absolutely loved this book. Totally different vibe to the previous story but builds astounding empathy for the very “real” characters. Clever, insightful and more twists and turns & politics that you could ask for! only downside is the wait for the next one.

Different, but amazing.

I wouldn’t usually write a poor review but sorry, Simon Vance butchered what would have been an epic continuation of a beloved series. Did he even consider listening to the previous recordings to get an idea around pronunciation or character development? We waited years for this, surely that wouldn’t have been too much to ask?
In my opinion, this would have been perfect with Paul Boehmer.

Disappointed
