    I know I recognise the name Brent Weeks, and I know I remember a magic system based around colour. Does that book start with someone who brings his cloak to life with colour magic? And as you get more magically powerful, you can see more and richer colours?

      No, that’s another Brandon Sanderson book called Warbreaker.

      Lightbringer has people who can do magic, but you have to see the colour in order to start using it. And all the colours do slightly different things as well as affect your emotions.

      Lots of great world building too.

        Thanks.

        I’ve read Night Angel series, that’s where I know the name from. Not the sort of book I’d usually enjoy but I remember good things. I think I’ll add Lightbringer to my list of books to read :)
