Publisher's summary

The official novelization of the brand new game

His vengeance against the gods of Olympus years behind him, Kratos now lives as a man in the realm of Norse gods and monsters. It is in this harsh, unforgiving world that he must fight to survive...and teach his son to do the same.

This startling reimagining of God of War deconstructs the core elements that defined the series - satisfying combat, breathtaking scale, and a powerful narrative - and fuses them anew.

Masterpiece

J.M. Barlog sure knows how to vivify the story in the game and narrate it to such an extend of reality.
And Mr. Duncan's performance takes the leap from the reading to the imagination of the user so smoothly, one can feel the actions of the characters develop in front of you.

A wonderful retelling of a great game

Alastair Duncan did an incredible job telling the story, truly a remarkable performance. Beyond that the story itself was amazing. Sure it had to cut out all the little moments and stories it kept true to the heart of the game in new detailed ways. The inner workings of father and son were wonderfully written and deffiantly make this a title I'll happily listen to again
