"The perfect murderer has no friends, only goals. The first part of "The Angel of the Night", the epic fantasy trilogy Brent Weeks has become one of the authors revelation of fantasy literature.
The perfect murderer has no friends, but goals.
Death is an art, and Blint Durza executes it perfectly, either in a dark alley or in the large rooms of the palace. Even the mighty Sa'kagé, the criminal organization The Puppet and interests in the city of Cenarius and respected.
life is worthless if it is born in the streets, and Azoth the only way to escape the misery and fear which always accompanied him is to be feared rather than fear, kill before they kill you. If you want to survive, must convince Blint that he accepted as an apprentice.
But learning to kill with the best requires more than hard training. You have to change their identity. Forget the past and what they believed. We must learn to move like shadows in a world of intrigue where nobles, commoners and criminals are merely pieces in a game that has just begun. "
Comment and Opinion:
you not passed any Once you enter into a bookstore looking for something in particular and, suddenly, on the corner of her eye on a shelf atisbáis the cover of a book, go you to know why it seems to be calling? That first impression made me approach the book and get it to take a look at the back ... and not if it's because my mood that day or why but I drew the plot and end up without knowing exactly like buying a book box of yore. Do not know the author (I later learned that this was his first novel) and knew the novel (obviously if this was the first novel of author ... hehehe), but has been a purchase that I love.
I put a day ... the story is about a poor boy left hand of God and can survive in the slums of a coastal city in an imaginary world ... in these suburbs is tucked into a local gang of thieves and offenders who do what it takes to survive. This añadidle the fact that, although young, are able to take the most perverse and sadistic roles you can think of any adult.
Well, these suburbs of Cenarius are under the control of a criminal organization, the Sa'kagé, which controls all branches of service (prostitution, gambling, slavery, etc ...), each branch dominated by his own master who in turn reports to a paramount chief or Shinga.
other hand, working for that organization or to the highest bidder is the branch of the Enforcers ... some murderers trained to be invisible and commit any murders charged ... are murderers unparalleled since, in addition to their own skills in the profession have had certain magical talents that make them do things impossible ... les endow superhuman strength, stealth, ability to project illusions, etc ... I mean ... the kind of skills that would make a murderer normalito a machine of destruction in itself.
Well, our protagonist Azoth child dreams of being a disciple of the best of all these performers, Durza Blint ... a legend in itself, to leave the den where he has to live and to help their friends.
I will not say much, but if that you advance (as is obvious) and thus get to be a disciple of Azoth Durza, but not before witnessing horrible events that left him marked thereafter.
The novel tells how Azoth is becoming Kylar gradually, an executor to be carving out his reputation slowly but has a big problem ... is unable to unleash his magic ... something breaks into it and fix it until you get may not be one of the best (here comes in the description that the author of the magic that reminded me of Weiss and Hickman at his best, as it describes a magician as a recipient, and sender through magic and places each of these features into it and, if you fail, fail and you will see the magic ... ... I found it curious way to describe it ... it is not it was too original, but curious).
The case ... the novel progresses apace until another player comes into play ... a neighboring kingdom of Cenarius are interested in taking control of the region ... this is a realm fraught with wizards and an army without equal and is willing to bear against the neighboring country to take over everything.
I will not reveal more, saying only that triggers a series of political intrigues of fulfilling prophecies and epic battles that have kept me glued to the couch reading non-stop and all with a taste for Assessins Creed (I mean the game console) incredible ... I seemed to be or Ezio Altair but added magical powers ... we are a joy ...
Another thing I liked about the novel is the tone adult, both in dialogue and in certain descriptions of horrific events or deaths. I liked not walk around the bush and tell the "reality" so stark. In the same way I have found myself smiling several times at comments to adults or a taco or expletive well tucked into the text ... c'mon, it's been a sea of \u200b\u200bentertaining reading and entertaining.
This is the first novel in a trilogy whose second volume will come out in November and, frankly, I'm willing to leave to continue with the adventures of this murderer who, you'll see, not so bad after all (not quiet I have revealed nothing and that the nature of Azoth is clear from the beginning of the novel and, if everything is doomed to be a machine to kill the child within does not fade and resists being destroyed).
In summary, a novel worth reading and a staging worthy of mention for a full first-author but which has managed to keep reading as the author of the genre more professional.
Honestly, it's worth. Kind regards
