I know this is a really old post but I just have to make this suggestion because it is such an amazing trilogy. The Night Angel trilogy. It's about a boy who lives in the streets then goes on to be trained by the greatest assassin ever known. It is definitely worth a try.


Protip(1): The first book wasn't published in 2007 when this thread had activity.
Protip(2): Night Angel Trilogy is mehtastic at best.
Protip(3): Brent, that you? I didn't realize sales were so bad you had to create accounts on relatively small forums to pimp your books...

How do we know you aren't in fact Brent Weeks, Obdigore. Using a meta comment to create suspicion around your own work, leading to increased interest, leading to increased sales.

I am on to you.

You don't. There is nothing you can do to prevent my diabolical plan from succeeding, if I am indeed Brent Weeks.

You can't fool me. I have reliable information that half the board is actually Brent Weeks.

This information being, of course, that you are Brent Weeks, and as such, would know.

I, not being Brent Weeks of course, would never suggest that you go to the Amazon page for totally not my own awesome series, and purchase The Best Selling Night Angels Trilogy:

http://www.amazon.co...y/dp/0316033677

That would be absurd!

Mod Warning: Stop trying to take over the forum possible Brent Weeks'

Half the forum is already abyss talking to himself, we don't need things to deteriorate further.

That said I think Night Angels trilogy is exactly what this topics author was looking for.

Definitely not Brent Weeks or Abyss

I, not being Brent Weeks as I am sure you can see, would never attempt to take over this fine forum. Why would I when I could recommend the excellent Brent Weeks Discussion Forum:

http://brentweeks.ning.com/forum

Where you can discuss such topics as the BEST SELLING FANTASY SERIES THE NIGHT ANGEL TRILOGY and my Brent Weeks new series of books called THE LIGHTBRINGER SERIES. Which you coincidentally can also find at Amazon.com:

I disagree fellow Brent.

Brent Weeks spelt backwards reads skeew tnerb.

there is sufficient lack of Abyss either way.

Anyways buy my book.

Groupies are always welcome. I have a llama.

Someday, some where, a guy is going to google Brent Weeks and the Night Angel Trilogy and he's going to come by this thread. That day will be a good day.

This sounds like a painful and complicated surgery.

Buy our book and maybe we could afford it....

I am currently reading this book, what are you people trying to prove here?
HiddenOne. You son of a bitch. You slimy, skulking, low-posting scumbag. You knew it would come to this. Roundabout, maybe. Tortuous, certainly. But here we are, you and me again. I started the train on you so many many hours ago, and now I'm going to finish it. Die HO. Die. This is for last time, and this is for this game too. This is for all the people who died to your backstabbing, treacherous, "I sure don't know what's going on around here" filthy lying, deceitful ways. You son of a bitch. Whatever happens, this is justice. For me, this is justice. Vote HiddenOne Finally, I am at peace.
