Brent Weeks, né dans le Montana, passa quelque temps à parcourir le monde comme Caine, le héros de Kung Fu, à s'occuper d'un bar et à corrompre la jeunesse (mais pas en même temps), avant de commencer à écrire sur des serviettes en papier de restaurants. Enfin, un jour, quelqu'un décida de le payer pour ça. Déconcertante de maîtrise, sa trilogie de L'Ange de la Nuit signa ainsi le coup d'envoi de sa carrière.
Discover the origins of Durzo Blint in this original novella set in the world of Brent Weeks' New York Times bestselling Night Angel trilogy.
"I got a bit of prophecy," the old assassin said. "Not enough to be useful, you know. Just glimpses. My wife dead, things like that to keep me up late at night. I had this vision that I was going to be killed by forty men, all at once. But now that you're here, I see they're all you. Durzo Blint."
Durzo Blint? Gaelan had never even heard the name.
***
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.
