International bestselling author Guy Gavriel Kay's latest work is set in a world evoking early Renaissance Italy and offers an extraordinary cast of characters whose lives come together through destiny, love, and ambition.

In a chamber overlooking the nighttime waterways of a maritime city, a man looks back on his youth and the people who shaped his life. Danio Cerra's intelligence won him entry to a renowned school even though he was only the son of a tailor. He took service at the court of a ruling count--and soon learned why that man was known as the Beast.

Danio's fate changed the moment he saw and recognized Adria Ripoli as she entered the count's chambers one autumn night--intending to kill. Born to power, Adria had chosen, instead of a life of comfort, one of danger--and freedom. Which is how she encounters Danio in a perilous time and place.

Vivid figures share the unfolding story. Among them: a healer determined to defy her expected lot; a charming, frivolous son of immense wealth; a powerful religious leader more decadent than devout; and, affecting all these lives and many more, two larger-than-life mercenary commanders, lifelong adversaries, whose rivalry puts a world in the balance.

A Brightness Long Ago offers both compelling drama and deeply moving reflections on the nature of memory, the choices we make in life, and the role played by the turning of Fortune's wheel.

Looks like the image
Color: 01 - Beige, Size: King (108" X 90")
Super happy with the purchase. I went with king size bed for my boyfriend and I, because in the past when we have bought queen size, it seems to just fit the top of my bed and not go over. Also my boyfriend like to hog the blankets so wanted the change to at least still have enough for me. This blanket is perfect for us, helps to keep us warm during the recent cold weather and feels so great against our skin. It feels luxurious, isnt super thin and quality seems great. As soon as we got it I washed it on the sensitive cycle with cold water. Then put it in for air dry in the dryer. It fluffed up by a lot, that I had to run it a couple more cycles and stopping it in between to pull it back out and rearrange it to make sure it was drying, since it would roll up. Near the end when it was almost dry. Not a single speck of lint. Nothing shed off this blanket while it dried, which was such a surprise for me. Hoping to invest in a few more in the future. Very happy with the purchase. It checks the marks for functionality, sleep quality and durability that I have seen for far. It would make a great gift and any moment I could suggest this blanket to a friend I would. I bought two of these for my twins as well to go over another cheaper warm blanket they already had, due to severe winter watch in my area. I wanted to make sure they had all the warmth they needed if power ever went out, thankfully it never did. They were kicking off their other blankets and choosing this one in their sleep over their other one.

Nice throw.

Really nice and pretty too. Very soft and warm. The weight of the throw is light but still it's warm. Turning out to be my favorite.
