Summary

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?

Thoroughly enjoyed, hopefully first of a series...

Really enjoyed this AOS book. Steadily working my way through the audible collection having listened to most of the 40k offerings. Great storey with a lot of development for the main character as he rages against Sigmar whilst rebutting the offerings of Khorne/Chaos. The slaves to darkness are always more interesting when portrayed as they are here, rallying against heavenly overlords and injustice rather than mindless brutes shouting about blood and skulls. Think I'll go paint some Bloodhound...

The Best Chaos Story For AoS

A great take on a fall to Chaos and how/why it happens. Nuanced and packed with anti-heroes. Shows off the scope of The Mortal Realms.

Superb!

Wonderfully written, fabulously read and gripping from start to finish!

This tale sheds light on a different perspective of the Mortal Realms which I found refreshing and very well delivered. Any fan keen to see more from the side of the Slaves to Darkness should absolutely pick this one up.

pretty decent

bit of a slow burner to begin with, with the main character coming across slightly petulant and childish however the story quickly builds up steam with some interesting side characters added too, not quite as power driven a story as scourge of fate but with a more human element.

Can you believe I can leave a review without reading the book? Go figure lol the extract was cool, readers a little slow…. Gonna give it a go. Still though, I’m rating a book I’ve never heard.

A compelling story from black library

Black library is often rather dull but here is an exception demonstrating a brilliant character piece. If you want to see chaos explored properly rather than treated as a disposable villain this is your book.

Best Warhammer book ever written

Complex themes of ethnicity, racism, colonialism, capitalism and religion. Very believable and relateable characters. This book manages to effortlessly blend
gritty realism and wildy fantastical elements.

truly unique book

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.
