About this listen

Vaults of Terra Book 2

Inquisitor Erasmus Crowl and his acolyte Spinoza face new dangers as the Great Rift opens and a new, bloody age dawns. Can Crowl stay true to his course and expose the horror that lies at the heart of the Hollow Mountain?

Listen to it because...

Discover what happens when Chaos comes to the Throneworld itself for the first time in 10 millennia and agents of the Inquisition must deal with conspiracy even as monstrous daemons are clawing at the door....

The story...

Inquisitor Erasmus Crowl has discovered a terrible plot, its roots firmly planted in the very highest levels of Terra. Pursuing it is fraught with risk, but Crowl’s sense of duty compels him to persevere.

He and his acolyte Spinoza run down their leads in secret, knowing that their every move invites danger, but even as they begin to reveal the truth, a greater peril is unfolding in the skies - the Great Rift is becoming manifest. During the madness that threatens to tear Terra asunder, Crowl’s Inquisitorial base of operations comes under attack and is badly ravaged. As his world begins to unravel and a new, bloody age dawns, can Crowl stay true to his course and expose the horror that lies at the heart of the Hollow Mountain?

Written by Chris Wraight. Total running time 9 hours and 47 minutes. Narrated by John Banks.

Superb sequel

a continuation of the previous book. The plot expands, and you get to see more of the inner workings Tera, and the empire.

My only nitpick is that the assassin character from the previous book seems for the most part tacked on.

Hungry for more.

A continuation.

great stuff

As a direct sequel, the story begins exactly after Vault of Terran#1, but this time the events are a bit more confusing.
To be fair and without giving spoiler, this novel should be listened in context with other released on the same period to fully understand the whole story.

On the bright side, the description of Terra and the fight scenes are both great.

Also, the voice performance from all the actors was absolutely fantastic.

Now, off to Book #3

Story a bit confusing, but great voice acting

An excellent story supplemented by John Banks' continuing masterful narration.

Crowl, Spinoza, Reevus and Kazad are fleshed out further in a satisfying manner that sees them develop their interplay as agents of the inquisition without the plot suffering as a result.

Moments of genuine tension and dread abound with twists and turns that still surprise despite the Great Rift having been a major milestone in the time line for some years now.

Cannot wait for the next installation!

A worthy sequel
