      Book Overview

      In a world where magic is tightly controlled, the most powerful man in history must choose between his kingdom and his son in the first book in the epic NYT bestselling Lightbringer series.
      Guile is the Prism. He is high priest and emperor, a man whose power, wit, and charm are all that preserves a tenuous peace. Yet Prisms never last, and Guile knows exactly how long he has left to live.

      When Guile discovers he has a son, born in a far kingdom after the war that put him in power, he must decide how much he's willing to pay to protect a secret that could tear his world apart.
      If you loved the action and adventure of the Night Angel trilogy, you will devour this incredible epic fantasy series by Brent Weeks.

      My all time FAVORITE series!!!

      By Don, Verified Purchase

      I purchased this book in 2020. I was so enthralled with this story that I went on to read the entire series in quick succession. Upon completion I proceeded to read Brent Weeks earlier Nightangel series (Which I also enjoyed, but nowhere near as much as Lightbringer). This series is the only series I have ever gone back and re-read in its entirety, ever... Finished my re-read late 2024 and am now anxiously awaiting his next...

      By Thriftbooks.com User,

      This book is incredibly well written. It has a main character that wouldn't normally be a hero and the magic system in this series is absolutely excellent.
