This book reads like an edge of your seat adventure novel. The action starts early and doesn’t let up till the very end. The characters are fun, and the banter between them is enjoyable. The story, though basic , is still enjoyable. Guy Haley is one of my favorite black library authors and he does not disappoint in this novel.
Overall the book is like a cross between treasure planet, Atlantis, and around the world in 80 days. It borrows a lot of elements from classic adventure stories but they work well in the age of sigmas setting. I found the world the story is set in very unique as well and the descriptions made it come to life.
Honestly, even if you don’t like age of sigmar or Warhammer, this is just a good, enjoyable read all on its own.
