The nail-biting third novel in the Night Angel series, from international bestseller Brent Weeks - an astonishing and epic tale of magic, violence and revenge. A new queen has usurped the throne and is leading Cenaria into disaster. The country has become a broken realm with a threadbare army, little food, and no hope. Kylar Stern plans to reinstate his closest friend Logan as King, but can he really get away with murder? In the north, the Godking's death has thrown Khalidor into civil war. To gain the upper hand, one faction attempts to raise the goddess Khali herself. But they are playing with volatile powers, and trigger conflict on a vast scale. Seven armies will converge to save - or destroy - an entire continent. Kylar has finally learnt the bitter cost of immortality, and is faced with a task only he can complete. To save his friends, and perhaps his enemies, he must assassinate a goddess. Failure will doom the south. Success will cost him everything he's ever loved.

Colleen Anthony was raised in a Christian home and was taught from the Bible at an early age. She believed God to be her Creator, and she had invited Him into her life to be her Savior. At that time, she viewed Christianity as something to keep her out of hell and as a religion that served her rather than transformed her. She didn't see God as the one who knew what was best for her. All of that was about to change. In The Light behind the Shadows, Colleen narrates her story, telling how her life changed, both spiritually and physically, when she was diagnosed with cancer. She shares her voyage through some dark storms and how God was with her each step of the way. Chronicling Anthony's journey of faith, The Light behind the Shadows describes how these events squeezed her and made her realize how important it is to have a correct view of who God is and how much He loves us.

Jeremiah was once the most feared name in the world for anyone who had heard of him. He was the ruthless general of the demonic hordes on Earth. Now, he works for the other side. Trying to reform, the demon is now working with the prophets of the world to train some of their best and brightest youth. Raul Habsburg is one of the most powerful members of a secretive organization called The Society of Minds. For time immemorial, the Society has striven to stay hidden, while promoting the intellectual growth of humanity. Like the world’s prophets, they have supernatural powers that set them apart from the rest of mankind, as well as help them overcome their enemies: evil and ignorance. Unlike the prophets, the Society doesn’t have a devotion to a deity, but their enemies are, nevertheless, the same. Though they have never met, Jeremiah and Raul have a common foe. A new enemy, going by the name of Adversary, is forming a demonic army of his own to fill the void of power in the ranks of the fallen. It falls on both Jeremiah and Raul to investigate this situation for their own sake and the sakes of those whom they’ve sworn to protect. Despite a need to stay hidden, Raul and Jeremiah must step into the light to face Adversary and keep him from being able to create his demonic army. But neither of them has any idea what to expect as they step Beyond the Shadows.
