À propos de cet audio
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?

The story

I feel this story has this tension between a human story about a man whose nation has been colonized and a setting that dictates that people who think that way are also crazy berserkers that want to hit people with an axe. Nguyen navigates that decently, but it's still a pretty impossible task
The best parts of the book are the bits where the sneering colonists spout nonsense. The worst parts are when Nguyen tries to explain how a society that worships an entity that just wants you to thwack the nearest person's head off might function. This is because the colonialism stuff was real and raw, whereas worshipping Khorne is just kind of silly.
The twist at the end probably would have landed better if it knew more about AOS, but this was still a nice listen. Great stuff.
Shout out to the performer for reciting the words "blood for the blood god... skulls for the skull throne..." in the most sad and forlorn way. Loved that bit.
Weird but interesting
