About this listen

A Warhammer Age of Sigmar novel

When a child is born during an apocalyptic storm and marked by the Everchosen himself, the warbands of the Eightpoints race to capture this infant for their own ends. But with the warriors of Sigmar stalking them, battle will ensue in the catacombs of the Bloodwind Spoil.

Delve beneath the war-torn Eightpoints and experience the adventure, drama and excitement of Warcry: Catacombs in an action-packed novel.

The story

Deep in the tainted lands of the Eightpoints, a child is born during an apocalyptic storm. As omens and prophecies swirl around it, with Archaon himself marking the boy, a brutal hunt begins, each warband striving to claim the child for their own ends. To Burak the Bloodseer and his Untamed Beasts, the child must be found and destroyed before it grows to rival the Everchosen. To Ashrath Silenthis and his Splintered Fang, it is Archaon’s heir and a means of buying his favour. To Lord Rakaros, the fanatical leader of the Scions of the Flame, the child must be given to the fire to prove their dedication to the Three Eyed-King. But as each warband fights for survival across this nightmarish landscape, they are stalked by a hellish and hated enemy: the chosen warriors of Sigmar the Craven. What follows is a brutal struggle that will lead to the very catacombs of the Bloodwind Spoil, where failure means certain death and damnation.

Written by Richard Strachan. Narrated by Andrew James Spooner.

A lot of characters to keep track of but it makes the story very rich and diverse. The narrators voice is superb. It’s a brutal and unforgiving story that kept my attention the whole way through. Stories like this are making me warm up to AOS more and more.

Wow, that was intense!

Great book

The quality of novels made to market a specific boxset is kind of dubious, sometimes favoring name-checking new units over telling an engaging story, but I enjoyed this one. Like the Warcry short story anthology, the real strength of this book is showcasing what life is like in a brutal high fantasy world for mortals away from the main storyline. For me, that made the characters more human, invested me in their perspectives, and elevated their battles and backstabbing.

About the first two-thirds focuses on some original chaos warbands (Splintered Fang, Untamed Beasts, and Scions of the Flame) tracking and fighting over chaos messiah baby yoda in the Bloodwind Spoils, and the last third has the survivors and Stormcast Eternals playing Indiana Jones in catacombs. No real Morathi lore if you're looking for that. The plot is pretty skimpy and repeats a limited set of notes, but the settings and scenarios are inspirational for tabletop play, and the characters kept me interested. While the ride was fun, the ending didn't fully follow through on story promises for me. The narration is great, characterful and exciting without being too cartoonish.

Overall, a fun listen if you're interested in the setting.

Surprisingly good

Fun story to listen to while building, painting miniatures or even play a campaign around.

Good story to build a match

This was a great story. Strachen was good at making you root for the characters even though they were all objectively bad people. The ending may feel anticlimactic, but it is the nature of Chaos. It does not build you up. It tricks you and tears you down. Andrew James Spooner was great as the narrator.
