Summary

A reluctant trio are forced to investigate a mystery city, but in doing so find themselves fighting a demonic atrocity, in this staggering action story set in the epic fantasy Descent games.

When three separate adventurers are hired to investigate the recent sealing of Thelgrim, the great Dunwarr dwarf city, all three have misgivings. One is a wanted criminal and the other two have no wish to work together - but when the money is this good, it's hard to refuse. As the three head to Thelgrim by secret path, none of them know what awaits them. Terrinoth is in upheaval: New threats are rising, and this one comes from the dark.

This was rough.

I’ve enjoyed other books from this writer, including his Warhammer novels and his earlier book in the Descent universe, Doom of Fallowhearth. That book was a blast. A nice little murder mystery in a fantasy setting.

This book was a slog. I couldn’t even finish it. Didn’t care about a single character. I was disappointed with this.

I also struggled with the narration. His voice was great and his characters were good. However, he read all scenes with the same intonation. No drama. No increase in speed during an intense scene. This wasn’t helped by the fact that it sounded like a low quality recording. There was just something odd about it. Like It was recorded on a phone.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
