The Legend of Nightfall

The Legend of Nightfall Mickey Zucker Reichert

Nightfall, the legendary assassin, has taken his name from the children’s song that warns about the danger of the night. A master of disguise, he survives by his wits, but survives primarily, despite is small size, because of his natural talent. A talent coveted by sorcerers who methods of extracting natural talents leaves much to be desired.

On the other end of the spectrum is Prince Edward of Alyndar, who strives to fight justice by confronting it head on, which causes nothing but trouble for his father, especially when Ned accidentally kills a man while confronting injustice.

This is a very good book, although I remembered as being somehow different. The story is very good, the characters are very good, my only complaint is that I think the ending is a bit too pat. But you’ll have that sometimes, and in general it doesn’t take away from an otherwise excellent book.
