excellent conclusion to an amazing story.

This book did a great job of wrapping up the story and world in which it's taking place without backing itself into a corner. I can't wait to see what Brent Weeks comes out with next. ps. as a Sanderson fan I'm secretly hoping that the 1000 worlds will become another multi series universe like the cosmere.

The best of the series!

This is one of the greatest works of fiction I have ever had the pleasure of reading. The entire series is amazing but the final novel is better than the other three books combined.

Such a good wrap up, but I still want more.

The title says it all, but since I have to write at least 15 words...

What we have been waiting for

Masterfully written. Weeks has to be proud of this one.

- And don't apologise for the Gunner chapters.

Couldn't stop listening, but worth the lost sleep!

Light Bringer is my new go-to fantasy series when I'm referring friends new to the genre. I'm sad the epic is over, but it ended well. I will definitely read it again. Simon Vance is as good as they come.

Loved all 5

I was turned on to the Lightbringer series by my husband right after the release of book 4. The audiobook performance has been solid throughout all of them and book 5 was no exception. This book was the perfect ending to an already amazing, funny and complex series. I look forward to enjoying more works by Brent Weeks in the future.
