A Warhammer Quest Audiobook

When a series of vicious murders rock the vampire-ruled city of Ulfenkarn, an unlikely group of heroes - a vampire hunter, a vigilante, a wizard and a soldier - must discover the truth even as the city's dread ruler takes to the streets and the bloodletting increases.

Listen to It Because

Delve into the dungeons beneath the city of Ulfenkarn and discover the story behind the board game in this tale of thrilling adventure.

The Story

Ulfenkarn is a city of nightmares. Its vampiric rulers have indulged their bloodlust in every shadow-clad alley, turning the once-proud metropolis into a charnel house. Already crushed beneath the tyranny of Radukar the Wolf and his Thirsting Court, a spate of vicious murders plunges the mortal inhabitants into fresh terror. Emerging to uncover a connection between the attacks is an unlikely group of heroes: a vampire hunter from Carstinia; a slum-born vigilante; a ruthless wizard; and a soldier who is the last survivor of her noble bloodline. Arrayed against them are the undead monsters that thrive upon Radukar's gory regime. But a daring search for answers turns into a fight for survival when the Wolf himself descends his Ebon Citadel and joins the carnage in the streets....

Written by C L Werner. Narrated by Richard Reed.

I thoroughly enjoyed this audio book...up until the cliffhanger ending. Richard Reed did a fantastic job bringing the story to life and I've long been a fan of CL Werner's novels and this one was wonderfully and ghoulishly entertaining. BUT wait! You can't stop there! yes I know the novel is an introduction to the games workshop board game Cursed City, I even have a copy of it myself; but come on Mr Werner. You have brought the characters to life and made Wulfencarn a real and dread city. PLEASE finish the job. I'll be gutted otherwise and I can't recommend thus novel until people have checked the Black Library have published the next instalment of this exciting series.

Oh... there better be a sequel.

It was very good a solid 8/10. It’s just not quite as good as other warhammer books like dominion

Very good

Interesting location awful ending

I found the book to be easily digested whilst I paint up my minis for Cursed City, and it honestly being my first audiobook, I might simply be out of touch with reality.

however, I wasn't thrilled by the voice acting, but on the other hand it wasn't terrible by any means. The actual narration was actually really good, besides that.

The story isn't super complex or surprising by any means, and could have been a little more complex given the material, but as a preamble to the game, it's a perfectly acceptable listen. and I DID enjoy it.

If want to get warmed up to the game, it's worth it imho.

I had this on in the back ground as I painted my Cursed City heroes. I was hoping for inspiration and an extra layer of excitement for the game.
The narration was great, the story was pointless with just one hero mentioned until the last minute of the book. It was like the author suddenly realised he hadn't talked about this particular hero so mentioned him for the purpose of ticking a box.

Glad I didn't pay GW for the hardback copy or I would have been very disappointed.

Not exactly exciting.
