Description

The war is over, and the Mortal Realms have all but fallen to Chaos... Khorgos Khul rampages across the fiery Realm of Aqshy, hunting down mortal kind to slaughter or subjugate to Khorne. His Goretide have crushed all resistance... until the storm. From the heavens hurtle paladins clad in gold. Sent by Sigmar, the Stormcast Eternals have come to liberate all the realms from the yoke of Chaos. Their leader is Vandus Hammerhand, Lord-Celestant of the Hammers of Sigmar. After a long age of darkness, there is hope. Vandus must open the Gates of Azyr to unleash Sigmar’s righteous fury against the damned. Everything depends on his victory.

Read it because
It’s your first chance to enter the mortal realms and see Sigmar’s chosen warriors in action – heroes of heavenly magic in god-forged armour who ride the storm and bring death to the servants of Chaos, in this case the dreaded Goretide. The perfect place to start exploring the Age of Sigmar.

Reviews

  • Rushed, but a good start.

    I enjoyed this book. It's short, and covers only a single battle, but it does give us a glimpse into the new AoS universe. I felt like this book read like a comic, rather than a novel, but I think that's a good thing, in this example at least. I simply cannot wait to read the next one.

  • The Age of Sigmar Begins!

    This was a great introduction to the new background of Warhammer: Age of Sigmar. The only problem I have with the book is that it was pretty short for the price. I'm looking forward to learning more about these new realms.

  • A Missed Opportunity

    I had high hopes for the first Age of Sigmar novel, but I have to express disappointment. The novel is mere exposition of the AoS boxed set first scenario with a few teasers tossed in. Fortunately its short and doesn't take too much attention to read. I know the author can do better, it felt like he was kept on a tight leash. Too bad, the story could have been a great launching point for the new universe. Give it a skip and just play the game instead.

  • Great introduction into AoS

    Great introduction into AoS. I look forward to future novels expanding the storyline.
