Samenvatting

The nail-biting third novel in the Night Angel series, from international bestseller Brent Weeks - an astonishing and epic tale of magic, violence and revenge.

A new queen has usurped the throne and is leading Cenaria into disaster. The country has become a broken realm with a threadbare army, little food, and no hope. Kylar Stern plans to reinstate his closest friend Logan as King, but can he really get away with murder?

In the north, the Godking's death has thrown Khalidor into civil war. To gain the upper hand, one faction attempts to raise the goddess Khali herself. But they are playing with volatile powers, and trigger conflict on a vast scale. Seven armies will converge to save - or destroy - an entire continent.

Kylar has finally learnt the bitter cost of immortality, and is faced with a task only he can complete. To save his friends, and perhaps his enemies, he must assassinate a goddess. Failure will doom the south. Success will cost him everything he's ever loved.

'Brent Weeks has a style of immediacy and detail that pulls the reader relentlessly into his story. He doesn't allow you to look away' Robin Hobb

'Nobody does break-neck pacing and amazingly-executed plot twists like Brent Weeks' Brian McClellan

'Weeks creates a rich blend of politics, culture and character . . . then throws in magic-using assassins' Peter V. Brett

'Unforgettable characters, a plot that kept me guessing, non-stop action and the kind of in-depth storytelling that makes me admire a writer's work' Terry Brooks

'Weeks has truly cemented his place among the great epic fantasy writers of our time' British Fantasy Society

  • Beyond the Shadows

    A power vacuum remains in Midcyru with the defeat of the Godking. As every ruler with an army behind him sets out to fill this void and become the prophesized High King it seems unavoidable to result in an ultimate showdown of forces on the battlefield, one where it will be unclear who is the ally and who the foe … and the stakes are raised even higher with the possibility to raise the goddess of suffering.

    After getting off to a rocky start in the two preceding novels the Night Angel trilogy redeems itself with this final installment. While in the previous parts the story development relied in large part on coincidences, this is less the case here. Perhaps the most important improvement in this book is the more convincing characterization. Mostly this is due to the removal of the Godking and the other bad guys which never surpassed stereotypical caricatures, leaving more room to develop the remaining characters. In addition, the storytelling becomes more compelling with an increased attention to world building. In particular the portrayal of the Chantry, Mount Thrall, the island empire of Seth, and the Krul turn Midcyru into a world that the reader can really immerse himself into.

    Unfortunately not all is good as the Kakari, Kylar’s magical artifact that makes him the Night Angel, obtains a voice and turns into a gasbag with a lame sense of humor. While this is distracting it should be noted, however, that with the much improved characterization, storytelling and world building this is a very satisfying conclusion to the Night Angel Trilogy. The same fast-paced writing style that also typifies the previous parts turns this novel into a real page-turner.

  • Geo politiek en moeilijk gedoe

    Negatieve punten

    • Moeilijk in te komen
    • Ingewikkeld verhaal
    • Saai

    Waar het eerste boek startte met de belofte van een straatschoffie die zich opwerpt tot assassin is dit derde boek pure geo-politiek.

    Er is geen recht doel in het boek. Er zijn ineens vlagen dark fantasy. En alles word ingewikkelder en ingewikkelder. Wat gewoon mijn smaak niet is.
