Perfect Shadow - A Night Angel Novella

For the first time in print as a special hardcover 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.
