About this listen

The follow-up novel to the best-selling computer game Baldur's Gate.

The heroes of Baldur's Gate set off on another action-packed adventure in this follow-up novel, based on Baldur's Gate II, the sequel to the record-setting computer RPG from Black Isle and Interplay.

As the disciples of Bhaal, the god of murder, grow in numbers and in strength, Abdel and his allies must stop the fanatical horde from resurrecting their fallen deity, or the shores of the Sword Coast will be bathed in blood.

Not a bad follow on

Not a bad follow on from the first book, but though the first was better structured. Would reccomend if you enjoyed the first.

this person doesn't like Minsc

The narration was great as always. the writer once again did a decent job of keeping to the main story. although I'll do feel they should have kept more to the actual story rather than go off on their own tangent. people who have played the game will know what I'm talking about. I was also upset to see that they didn't include some of the other party members once again that you could have taken with you. but I'm particularly discussed that they didn't take Minsc along for the journey. the writer even got the description of Mincs wrong. do you like that he did make the main character more imposing then in the actual game. but there was so much stuff that could have been added which would have improved the story but they didn't go down that path. once again this felt like someone going through the most boring run of the game you could imagine. fans of the game will be disappointed.
