![]() ![]() How could it not be? He is the bastard of the Lord Prism, Gavin Guile, the most powerful magic user in the world. He still has a very long way to go, but I think his future will be certainly interesting and dramatic. So, it was great to see him grow as a character as he learnt the extent of his abilities and where they stem from. He is fat, uneducated and quite ordinary but in his veins flows a power he has not quite come to terms with. It’s straightforward and it’s very clever.

Brent Weeks’ system based on colour and light can match anything Sanderson has put together. ![]() I thought Brandon Sanderson was the only writer of fantasy who could create such cool and intricate systems. The Black Prism has a fantastic magic system. There’s just so much detail that truly brought the world to life for me. It’s a beautifully rich fantasy universe with an awe-inspiring amount of world-building and colour behind it. What Brent Weeks has painted here is nothing short of marvellous. ![]()
