Book Description

Necromancer 1 March 15, 2005
A man can stray into evil for many reasons - a lust for power, the pursuit of forbidden knowledge or simply a desire to do the right thing. But they all have one thing in common - once the first steps are taken along the dark path, none ever return. Pursued by fanatical witch hunters and universally hated and feared, the necromancer risks death and damnation in his studies to prolong life. For the successful, however, an eternity of power awaits! Following his last awesome fantasy novel, Magestorm, Jonathan Green charts the descent of a simple physician as he travels the insane path of necromancy! As the darkness grows, he must face up to the truth that he has perhaps gone too far in his quest to cheat death.

3.0 out of 5 stars A decent read, March 18, 2005
By 
Keius (Ellicott City, MD United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Necromancer (Warhammer) (Mass Market Paperback)
There really isn't much to say about this novel.
It was a good read but there wasn't much exceptionally
bad or good about it.

Necromancer chronicles the fall from grace of an apprentice
physician who seems to want nothing more than to help
people. It is written from the main characters perspective
as he confesses to a priest of the evil in his past.

This novel is a short easy read. Easily concluded in one
reading session. The main characters are drawn out very well
and it is easy for the reader to understand the emotions,
motives, and actions of the antagonists and protagonists.
The story would be considered slow by most readers of
warhammer fantasy. The action is scarce and doesn't
even come close to what most readers of such novels as "Felix
and Gotrek" would expect.

I prefer a bit more action myself. At least when
it comes to warhammer fantasy.
Thus the 3 star rating.

3.0 out of 5 stars The Title proved more interesting than the Book, August 7, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Necromancer (Warhammer) (Mass Market Paperback)
I must say, being an avid WARHAMMER fan, of the games and the novels, this book disappointed me.

It displayed perfectly how one might find oneself treading the dark path towards Necromancy, but then - that's it. It was a rather dull read, and I only made it all the way through because I was wondering when the pace would pick up, and that army of shambling undead would arrive. They never did. The story made for a quick read (2 sittings), but lacked the adventure, and oft times doom & gloom endings that I have come to enjoy from WARHAMMER novels.

If a sequel is in the pipe, I hope it delivers a bit more punch.

2.0 out of 5 stars Painfully Dull, July 6, 2006
By 
This review is from: Necromancer (Warhammer) (Mass Market Paperback)
The book is it is not well written and is slow to develop - so despite it's small size it seemed to take forever to read. I've read several Warhammer novels and this one was, by far, my least favorite.
