5.0 out of 5 stars
Battle, blood and treason drip from every page.,
This review is from: Forged by Chaos (Warhammer Online) (Mass Market Paperback)
The Raven Host is about to march upon the Empire. To ensure victory, they must locate the Bastion Stair, a portal to the Realm of Khorne. There they can unleash the full power of the Winds of Chaos. The Spear of Myrmidia beckons for all who know how to use it and release Kakra the Timeless.
The marauder Kormak is a mutant warrior of the Wastes, capable of twisting his flesh and bone at will into new shapes. He is in chains, unwillingly traveling with one of the groups toward the Bastion Stair. Once he is in the Realm of Khorne he must challenge the Blood God's wrath. In the meantime, Kormak will kill all who dare to call him slave. ***** FIVE STARS! Dark elves so beautiful and evil that they attract and repel simultaneously, orcs with massive bulks but little wits, and dark sorcery striking wildly against all adversaries are but a few of the clashing delights found within these pages. Werner had previously proven to me how vivid and twisted his imagination must be to create such fiendishly compelling stories, but this time he proves that he can also do as well with the Warhammer Online series, if not more so. Battle, blood, and treason drip from every page. A charming addition to Warhammer's library. ***** Reviewed by Detra Fitch of Huntress Reviews.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
Book three in the Warhammer Online series see the Chaos forces of the Ravenhost battling the Empire, harnessing the power of Chaos. These novels in the Age of Reckoning series are an alternate timeline from the Warhammer Fantasy universe proper as they are based on events from the Warhammer Online Game. Werner has also written for the regular universe under his own name and the surname Bruno Lee. This is well written and typical Warhammer. Blood and chaos with the world at stake. Fun pulp fiction.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
You can expect all the Warhammer books to have some similarities - battles, magic, unhuman creatures, gore and grit, backstabbing and scheming, jeweled dagger hilts concealed in the laces of her straining bodice, etc.
This work is heavy (VERY heavy) on the battles and scheming, and pretty good in the straining bodices department, but doesn't have much else in the way of plot or character development. I don't read these books expecting Dostoevsky, but, except for a few well-fleshed out scenes, this one reads like a video game. The descriptions are rich and evocative, and the battles are presented blow-by-blow. If that's enough for you, go for it.
