Light Perpetual (Hussite Trilogy, 3) (in English)
Andrzej Sapkowski
Synopsis "Light Perpetual (Hussite Trilogy, 3) (in English)"
From the globally bestselling author of The Witcher comes the final book in the rich historical epic, the Hussite trilogy. Join Reynevan--scoundrel, magician, possibly a fool--as he embarks on a last great adventure across the war-riddled landscape of 15th century Bohemia. After his adventures in The Tower of Fools and Warriors of God, Reynevan is on the run again, harried by enemies--some human, and some mystical--at every turn. These are cruel and dangerous times for a man such as Reynevan, and to survive, he must set aside his history as a peaceful healer and idealist and play the brutal role of Hussite spy as crusades sweep through Silesia and the Czech Republic, and the world around him is forever changed. Praise for the Hussite Trilogy: "A ripping yarn delivered with world-weary wit, bursting at the seams with sex, death, magic and madness." --Joe Abercrombie "This is historical fantasy done right." --Publishers Weekly (starred review) "A fantastic novel that any fan of The Witcher will instantly appreciate." --The Gamer "Sapkowski's energetic and satirical prose as well as the unconventional setting makes this a highly enjoyable historical fantasy." --Booklist Translated by David French By Andrzej Sapkowski: The Hussite Trilogy The Tower of Fools Warriors of God Light Perpetual Witcher collections The Last Wish Sword of Destiny Witcher novels Blood of Elves The Time of Contempt Baptism of Fire The Tower of Swallows Lady of the Lake Season of Storms
