The Burning White is the epic and thrilling conclusion to the Lightbringer series by New York Times bestseller Brent Weeks. As one of the most celebrated fantasy series of the decade, it masterfully weaves complex characters, intricate magic, and breath-taking battles into a finale that will leave readers on the edge of their seats.

In a world teetering on the brink of chaos, Gavin Guile, once the most powerful man ever known, has been stripped of his magic. Now, driven by desperation and love, he embarks on a perilous mission with no guarantee of success. His failure would spell doom for the woman he adores, while his success might cost him his entire empire.

Meanwhile, the Chromeria, the seat of magical power, is under siege from multiple fronts. The White King has set his devastating plans into motion, and as treachery threatens from within, young Kip Guile must rise to the occasion. Rallying his allies and mustering his forces, Kip races against time for one last, heroic stand that could change the fate of their world forever.

With over four million copies sold, Brent Weeks has rapidly become one of the fastest-selling fantasy authors of all time. His unique ability to blend rapid pacing, intricate plots, and deep character development has won him a legion of fans and critical acclaim.
