Makeda , Supreme Archdomina of House Balaash, is known throughout the Iron Kingdoms for her leadership of the mighty Skorne Empire, but it was not always so… Before the coming of the Skorne Empire into the west, Makeda was little more than the second child of a great house, but through her will, determination, and adherence to the code of hoksune, she rose above all others.

For the first time the secrets of both Makeda and her people are revealed in the tale of their epic struggle for honor and survival in Instruments of War. A novella of the Iron Kingdoms.

Great story, well written and portrayed characters, great use of the world. A good experience for fans of fantasy, steam punk, and pirates.

Pirates meets WarMachine, what's not to love?

Really fleshed out the backstory, flawlessly included abilities youd find in the game and helps make the game mechanics feel like they are coming from somewhere

Followed the story and included game mechanics

the performer did a good job in all the technical aspects (clarity, character distinction, pacing, ect.), but she failed to convey emotion and intensity the characters should have had.

a solid piece of fluff for those in the fandom

Larry Correia is my favorite author, but this book isn't my cup of tea. That said, it is exciting, peppered with a bit of very dry humor, and vivid. The characters are consistent, and their motivations clear. I used to love this sword and sorcery kind of fantasy, but it's not my thing anymore. If you love the Monster Hunter series or the Grimnoir series (I have listened to them multiple times) this is nothing like them. I hate to be negative about my main man Correia, but the narrator wasn't awesome either. Her voice and delivery lacked vitality. I recommend the book if you are a fan of the genre or play Warmachine.

Not like his first two series

I have no idea what the Warmachine game stuff is all about that most of the other reviewers mentioned (apparently it's the universe this book originates from). I'm a fan of the author, though, and this book did not disappoint.

Excellent!
