The Black Prism by Brent Weeks

5.0

5.0 stars. This book... I didnt not expect this. I read Night Angel years ago and was underwhelmed. Did Brent EVER improve as an author. Characters, world, plot, magic system; I loved everything about this. Characters and their histories, relationships and motivations are weaved together so well. I felt the pain and emotional struggle of characters, I laughed out loud at some silly moments, I felt excitement and gratification at points, and at the end I honestly felt like I needed a cigarette.

Best book I've read so far this year, hands down. Cannot wait to start book 2. Bravo Mr. Weeks.
