Something you never take for granted. As a guild rat, he's grown up in the slums, and learned to judge people quickly -- and to take risks. Risks like apprenticing himself to Durzo Blint. <p/> But to be accepted, Azoth must turn his back on his old life and embrace a new identity and name. As Kylar Stern, he must learn to navigate the assassins' world of dangerous politics and strange magics -- and cultivate a flair for death. <p/><b>The Night Angel Trilogy</b> <br><i>The Way of Shadows <br> Shadow's Edge <br> Beyond the Shadows <p/> Night Angel: The Complete Trilogy (omnibus) <br> Perfect Shadow <br> The Way of Shadows: The Graphic Novel</i> <p/> For more from Brent Weeks, check out: <p/><b>Lightbringer</b> <br><i>The Black Prism <br> The Blinding Knife <br> The Broken Eye <br> The Blood Mirror <br> The Burning White</i><br><br><b>Author:</b> Brent Weeks<br><b>Publisher:</b> Orbit<br><b>Published:</b> 01/17/2023<br><b>Pages:</b> 592<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 1.30lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.60h x 6.00w x 2.30d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780316528160<br><br><b>Accelerat
