The Blinding Knife by Brent Weeks (Lightbringer, Book 2)

Synopsis:
The Color War is ON–but Gavin Guile, the only man who can fight back the darkness is losing his powers and facing demons from his past.

Review:
The Blinding Knife is the second book in Brent Weeks’s stunningly awesome Lightbringer trilogy, which he began in The Black Prism. So far both books have gotten off to a slow start, but once they kick in they are just relentlessly awesome. I feel like Weeks could benefit from a more conscientious editor but his world-building, plotting, character development, and prose style are top notch. The story ends with a helluva cliffhanger and was a fantastic ride to get there.

This is a great series and definitely tiding me over while waiting on You Know Who to tell me if R+L=J.
