Summary

An Age of Sigmar Audiobook

Only the kill soothes the storm in my soul. Only the kill proves I am the daughter Sigmar made me to be.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Follow Sigmar’s Prime Huntress, Yndrasta, as she stalks her prey through the treacherous Realm of Ghur. Can she find and slay this creature, or will she discover a more dangerous monster in her own reflection?

THE STORY

The nomadic sled-city of Riika-Min glides endlessly along the icy tundra of Ghur, its denizens’ existence entwined with the rhythm of the realm. But something is disrupting the balance of the Realm of Beasts, and when a kraken suddenly attacks, Sigmar sends his master tracker, Yndrasta, the Celestial Spear, to hunt it down.

In Riika-Min, Yndrasta meets Njda, trying to guide her people to safety. Njda is at once fearful and in awe of the golden-clad warrior from the sky, and soon learns how dangerous it can be to get between a hunter and her quarry – because for all her fearsome beauty, Yndrasta is just as deadly as the beast they seek.

As they close in on their target, Njda must teach Yndrasta the ways of the Realm of Beasts, and she soon finds herself wondering who the real monster is – the leviathan lurking in the deep, or the Celestial Spear sent down from the heavens?

The fact that Yndrasta doesn't really get fully involved in the story until later on may upset some, but it's a really fascinating look at the difficulty of life in the realm of beasts, with several well drawn characters who are excellently performed by the narrator.

A great look into life in Ghur.

The story paces too slowly, with the Line it Will takebeeing apparent pretty early on. But, When the action is there, it’s good - and the characters are fairly well written.

Slow but interesting!

This story serves as a strong introduction for yndrasta even if she is not the main focus of the story. the book actually focused on a nomadic tribe member and their journey to safety through ghur. yndrasta serves to show how the mortals see sigmar and is followers. the author noan is great at showing this darker side to sigmar and those skills do show through with a great look at the weight of mortal life's in the eyes of the stormcast.

the narrator was incredible. true skill at making the different characters come to life. it was a joy to listen too. truely hope to see them back again.

another good entry with a great narrator

Sheds light on the enigmatic Yndrasta through the eyes of mortals. I didn’t particularly enjoy the human characters, and the book is somewhat of a slow burn. That said, I still consider it worth reading (or listening to), even if only as a palate cleanser.

Interesting and unusual

Narrator was excellent, but the story was abit meh the first 2/3rd of the book just did not grab me, it got better towards the end but could have been a shorter story.

good but ny great
