Cénaria est un royaume brisé où règnent la famine et le désespoir. Il n''est plus défendu que par une armée misérable. Au nord, le nouveau Roi-dieu a un plan. C''est de la pure démence mais, s''il parvient à le mener à bien, personne ne pourra plus l''arrêter. Pour sauver ses amis, et peut-être même ses ennemis, Kylar doit accomplir l''impossible: assassiner une déesse. S''il échoue, il condamnera la moitié d''un continent. S''il réussit, il perdra tout ce à quoi il tient.

For the first time as an Orbit special edition, Brent Weeks''s blockbuster novella Perfect Shadow tells the origin story of the Night Angel trilogy''s most enigmatic character: Durzo Blint. Also includes the short story, I, Nightangel. Gaelan Starfire is a farmer, happy to be a husband and a father; a careful, quiet, simple man. He''s also an immortal, peerless in the arts of war. Over the centuries, he''s worn many faces to hide his gift, but he is a man ill-fit for obscurity, and all too often he''s become a hero, his very names passing into legend: Acaelus Thorne, Yric the Black, Hrothan Steelbender, Tal Drakkan, Rebus Nimble. But when Gaelan must take a job hunting down the world''s finest assassins for the beautiful courtesan-and-crimelord Gwinvere Kirena, what he finds may destroy everything he''s ever believed in.

El asesino perfecto no tiene conciencia, sino una misión... Llega el desenlace de la trilogía épica «El Ángel de la Noche». El opresor ha muerto y su ejército ha sido vencido. La rebelión del pueblo de Cenaria ha triunfado, pero a un elevado coste. El país está en ruinas, y los supervivientes apenas podrían defenderlo. El hambre y la desesperación se adueñan del reino. Para evitar que estalle una guerra civil, Logan, el legítimo heredero, cede el trono a una de las nobles que encabezó la causa rebelde. Mientras, en el norte, se alza un nuevo rey dios. Su plan es una auténtica locura, aunque si logra sacarlo adelante nadie podrá pararle los pies jamás. Kylar ha de prepararse ante la contienda definitiva. Para salvar a sus amigos (e incluso a sus enemigos) deberá realizar lo imposible: asesinar a una diosa. Si fracasa, condenará a medio continente. Si triunfa, tal vez podría perder lo único por lo que le merecía la pena vivir. Es la última jugada. La partida está a punto de acabar. «Era el Ángel de la Noche, quizá el único hombre en el mundo al que deberíais temer.» Reseña: «Una de las más gratas sorpresas en lo que va de año. Un libro increíble.» Khardan, blog Un hacedor en el desierto
