About this listen

A Warhammer Age of Sigmar Novel

Heldanarr Fall just wants to be left in peace in Aqshy, but the gleaming golden warriors of Sigmar won’t let him be. So he fights back – and draws upon a more primal power...

Listen to it because...

This is a Mortal Realms story with a twist – a virtuous man succumbs to the path of darkness, and wages a war against Sigmar.

The story:

Heldanarr Fall dreams of a world without gods.

When the Azyrites descended upon the Burning Valley – a kingdom carved from the Aqshian desert – they brought arrogance and cruelty with their riches, and a god who seemed blind to it all. Despite harrowing losses, Held clung to his people’s ways, forging a new existence without a single prayer to the armoured deity, Sigmar.

Now, all Held wants is solitude. But after saving a Sigmarite priestess from violent death, her troubles catch up to them and destroy the last of his peace. First broken, then enraged, he launches a brutal war of vengeance against Sigmar’s worshippers, and soon finds himself thrust against the Stormcast Eternals, led by the cunning strategist Ildrid Stormsworn.

Alone, he cannot hope to win, yet surrender would mean accepting the mercy of a god he despises. To defeat the Stormcasts and avenge his fate, Held must embrace older, darker powers that risk the very freedom for which he fights. But when Sigmar's rulers are tyrants and the Champions of Chaos prove worthy, which path is the most righteous? And once this choice is made, who will Heldanarr Fall become?

like most people in the comments section, it was a little slow at first but the last few hours of the book had me gripped with excitement.
Some parts was a bit bland, but all of it was very uniquely different.

truly unique book

I really liked the voice actors performance. Unrushed and seemed to fit the first person account of the story very well.

I liked that it was relatively relatable. It described “normal” people, and setting. I liked that it contained history of this fictional world. I liked that it was told from a first person point of view.

I liked that it didn’t got into lengthy descriptions and details of battles.

The voice actors performance, and that the story focused more on a relatable life journey instead of battle details.

Excellent story, does a brilliant job of exploring the nuances of ‘evil’ and how the role of Chaos in the mortal realms is not as black and white as it may seem. A very human story, echoing real world scenarios of repression and devastation by powers that decide their way is the be all and end all of truth and civilisation. Highly recommended!

Brilliant

A very above average tale from warhammer told and written evocatively from the perspective of the natives of the mortal realms

A well told opposite perspective

Not just one of the best AoS books but one of the best fantasy books I've listened to overall. Praying for another entry~

A must read
