About this listen

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?

Godeater's son is the first Age of Sigmar novel that had me truly hooked. Like many stories it starts slowly, but this is for the genuine purpose of establishing our protagonist and their place in the mortal realms. It provides a good look at the multifaceted life of mortals within the AoS setting and challenges concepts of 'good' and 'evil', Filled with mystery, intrigue, and bloodshed, it took me back to older Black Library titles that built up both the Old World and 41st millenniums lore.

Wonderfully written, fabulously read and gripping from start to finish!

This tale sheds light on a different perspective of the Mortal Realms which I found refreshing and very well delivered. Any fan keen to see more from the side of the Slaves to Darkness should absolutely pick this one up.

Superb!

Really enjoyed this AOS book. Steadily working my way through the audible collection having listened to most of the 40k offerings. Great storey with a lot of development for the main character as he rages against Sigmar whilst rebutting the offerings of Khorne/Chaos. The slaves to darkness are always more interesting when portrayed as they are here, rallying against heavenly overlords and injustice rather than mindless brutes shouting about blood and skulls. Think I'll go paint some Bloodhound...

Thoroughly enjoyed, hopefully first of a series...
