Great characters

One of the best black library books ever. It depicts the slaves of darkness so brilliantly. Other than that it’s just an all out awesome barbarian novel, as great as any Conan novel.

Path to glory

Seek the portents, bohold the feast and it it all or none of it!

This can be applied in any life that seeks glory

Dark, compelling and awesome.

This is my second AoS book. I absolutely love the Darkoath faction. From their Viking-esque (not in an overdone way) culture to their strained relationship with both chaos god and the "civilized" world. Gunnar is an interesting protagonist. The way he rides the fine line of control and chaos, trying to keep his people alive and appeasing the gods.

Excellent, evocative and engaging until the very end.

This was a wonderfully paced novel. As someone who isn't fully aware is the Warhammer lore and universe, i still found this very engaging and addictive. Absolutely loved this. Highly recommend.

Darkoath done right

Amazing story with characters you become invested in as they grow. Really captures the essence of the tribes. The story spurred me on as I finished my minis.
