Gavin Guile is missing, leaving Kip and his allies to face the White
King's horde in the fourth novel of the NYT bestselling Lightbringer
series by Brent Week's.
When does an empire fall?
The Seven Satrapies have collapsed into four-and those are falling
before the White King's armies.
Gavin Guile, ex-emperor, ex-Prism, ex-galley slave, formerly the one man
who might have averted war, is now lost, broken, and trapped in a prison
crafted by his own hands to hold a great magical genius. But Gavin has
no magic at all. Worse, in this prison, Gavin may not be alone.
Kip Guile will make a last, desperate attempt to stop the White King's
growing horde. Karris White attempts to knit together an empire falling
apart, helped only by her murderous and possibly treasonous
father-in-law Andross Guile.
Meanwhile, Teia's new talents will find a darker use-and the cost might
be too much to bear.
Together, they will fight to prevent a tainted empire from becoming
something even worse.
Devour this blockbuster epic fantasy series that had Peter V. Brett
saying, "Brent Weeks is so good, it's starting to tick me off!"
