About this listen

A Warhammer Horror audiobook

A disgraced warrior-priest who prowls the Greywater Fastness is forced to confront his past when a message from an old friend sends him on a perilous quest. In an isolated village full of untrusting souls, his darkest secrets threaten to come to light.

Listen to It Because:

Explore a corner of the Mortal Realms full of dangerous characters and dark secrets in a tale by Josh Reynolds, master of the sinister.

The Story:

Harran Blackwood was a Warrior-Priest of ruthless virtue. Now he's a man with a scorched reputation, prowling the back alleys of Greywater Fastness, content to fight the petty wars of racketeers for survival. But when a desperate message arrives from an old friend, Blackwood is forced to confront a past he thought long buried.

Summoned to the isolated village of Wald, Blackwood sets off on a perilous trek to ensure the sins of his former life remain forgotten. He soon discovers that Wald is a hostile, secretive place with sins of its own. Deep in the murky marshes, where the cruel chants of village folk echo and the stink of death hovers low, Blackwood must channel his bitterness and rage to defy the ancient darkness that now hunts him before he is devoured, body and soul.

The story was legitimately good, a genuine feeling of creepy and brooding anticipation. So I don't know exactly what it was, but it made me fall asleep. I enjoyed the narrator's voice, his delivery and inflections, but needed to speed the playback up just to make it sound normal to me, and I feel it was still a bit too slow and sleepy. Maybe his just wasn't to right voice for this story, maybe I was just super sleepy. I really wanted to be drawn in to this book, and I don't know if it was the detailed writing or the soothing, rhythmic, but slow narration, but I just couldn't. I didn't even feel the need to go back to catch up on what I missed when I did fall asleep, just wanted to finish it. It's a shame, there were some really creepy and atmospheric scenes and moments.

Optional heading. Can't submit without one. Sure.

Best AoS novel I've read. Some of the AoS I've come into contact to reads like bad fanfiction, jammed full of over-the-top fight scenes with some very thin plot to justify it. This book was a pleasant change of pace. No Stormcast! Thank you! Read it if you want I'm not your dad.

Atmospheric

There really isn't much I didn't like about this book. The setting, characters, plot and narration left me with a constantly growing feeling of dread and unease. I sincerely hope to see more of Harran Blackwood in future works. Fantastic work Josh Reynolds.

A Warhammer horror novel that's actually creepy.

I struggled with this story and I wasn't able to finish it.

The ideas and storyline were interesting but it was hard to follow along with. The narration was the same tone through out with only slight variations for voices. This made it hard to differentiate between the people speaking and also listen to what is being said.

Hard to follow, voices sound the same

Voice acting was perfect for the story and was sad when it was over. Protagonists was great and hope to hear more stories about him.

Loved it

Fantastic story. The narrator is very monotone and slow speaking so I found the book a lot better once I increased the playback speed. Definitely worth a listen.

Great story with an interesting ending.

Spooky and immersive.

The narrator was brilliant, he completed the book in my opinion. Making it darker with his pauses and made it easy to know who as speaking. I do hope he comes back for another!

The story was great. Almost a Lovecraft, almost a Stephen King. It was a creative way of making Ghyran a terrifying place without needing Nurgle.
I definitely want to know more about Blackwoods future adventures.

Very satisfying
