À propos de cet audio

A brutal warrior, Kratos is a slave to the gods of Olympus. Plagued by the nightmares of his past and yearning for freedom, the Ghost of Sparta would do anything to be free of his debt to the gods. He is on the verge of losing all hope when the gods give him one last task to end his servitude. He must destroy Ares, the god of war. But what chance does a mere mortal have against a god?

Armed with the deadly chained Blades of Chaos, guided by the goddess Athena, and driven by his own insatiable thirst for vengeance, Kratos seeks the only relic powerful enough to slay Ares---a quest that will take him deep into the mysterious temple borne by the Titan Cronos! From the black depths of Hades to the war-torn city of Athens to the lost desert beyond, God of War sheds a brutal new light on the best-selling video game and on the legend of Kratos.

Let me tell you this was the best recap of god of war. So incredibly over the top gory it was funny to listen to. If you are a fan of the OG games you'll love this. the narrator also did a wicked job with different voices.

So over the top its awesome

I played GOW 1-3 and enjoyed them all to some degree but the first one was a classic. This book serves to take every moment in what was a great story and put it on the rack and torture it. It stretches and drags so many moments to such an excruciating pace that the attack on the palace in HxH would feel like an instant. "the blades, and chains that were, but now aren't, but once were. and where they once were, the chains that is, and the blades, being the blades of chaos that were chained to him are gone. his skin is bloody where the blades, and chains of those blades.."

I am being a bit hyperbolic in my quote, but honestly not by much. That opening section is agony compared to the gripping tragedy the game opened us with. The story is so poorly written it is embarrassing every time that the writer uses one of the original lines. And of course every instance of this feels absolutely shoehorned in.

This is such a beautiful tragedy but the real tragedy is that this book could not have been fed through the editing planer a few more times. If you loved the original story then I don't recommend this. And if you've never experienced the story before I highly recommend you find a copy of the game and play it start to finish. At about 6 hours long it will take you less time, will be given a far more enjoyable story and wont have the same repetition stabbed into your ears over and over again.

A final note: I purchased a Stover book on here before that I had to return for being a bad book, so this might be related to his writing style. I don't remember that other book but had I realized the author before the purchase, I would not have made the same mistake.

This book was so bad I had planned on keeping it
