Resumen del Editor

The sun is dying over Ashathar.

Kataklysm arrives every three thousand years.

It's always different, but whatever form it takes, the result is the same—it brings humanity to the brink of extinction.

The last Kataklysm...happened three thousand years ago. To save the world from Kataklysm, Tannen seeks an ancient path, once cultivated by the ancestors, long since abandoned and forgotten.

To find the path, Tannen must venture into hostile lands.Did the path save a remnant of life during the last Kataklysm? Or was there something else about the path they pursued that left them warped, exiled, and nearly forgotten?

Tannen must venture into Tensia. A place occupied by a barbaric superhuman race.Tannen isn't a warrior. He's an archaeologist.His companion, Valoria, is an astrologist.This could be the last Kataklaym, the end of humanity forever.

Can Tannen and Valoria survive in hostile territory, or will their deaths seal the fate of the world?

Darkworld is the inaugural installment of Kataklysm: Origins—a series that details the rise of the post-apocalyptic, magical world of Blightmage and the Kataklysm Series. It features a progression and cultivation system with both good and evil cosmic dimension. Darkworld is a standalone story that you can enjoy as a first-listen in the Kataklysm universe.

great book

Absolutely love the audiobook. I had enjoyed reading it but hearing it took it to another level. The narrator brought it to life. They did such a great job bringing the characters to life and distinguishing between characters. they also did a great job with the world building. The drama and little bits of humor were brought out perfectly. The audio book was a pleasure to listen to and I can't wait for the next one. I received this audiobook with a promo code and this is my honest review.

Awesome

Yet another winner from the author. Great story and amazing characters with top notch narration. Love this author!

different

different. Tannen who is an archaeologist teams up with Valoria who is an astrologist to stop the next Kataklysm or at least avert it. worth read and/or listening to.

Beginning of an epic series

The kataklysm occurs every 3,000 years, but the next one day be the last.
Tannen, an archeologist, has translations that allude to the last kataklysm, but when he tries to warn everyone about the impending kataklysm, he's laughed at.
Valoria isn't laughing — she's an astrologist and has seen evidence that the sun could be extinguished.
The two of them must venture into the war-torn country of their enemies in order to search for a way to stop the kataklysm.
A good introduction to the world and characters.
Kelley Hazen was very expressive and did a wonderful job with the narration and all the different characters.

Even at the end of the world... adventure

Received as an audio review copy from Story Origin, this is an honest review. Narrated wonderfully by Kelley Hazen, Darkworld: The Fall of Ashathar is a poignant and profound adventure as Tennen, an archaeologist is desperate to get those of power and influence to believe their world is headed into a dangerous downfall. No one will listen and in turn decide to engage in a fruitless war instead of utilizing the science that Tannen and Voloria have uncovered to prepare for the harrowing future. Powerless and on their own, Tannen and Voloria head deep within enemy lands to find anything theat will make even the slightest difference of their fate. An exciting journey and blessed with complex characters. Highly recommended.

THIS IS A GREAT STORY. COULD'NT STOP LISTENING.

STORY IS GREAT AND EASY TO FOLLOW.
INTRIGUING & DYNAMIC STORY LINE WITH A GREAT NARRATION.
ACCEPTABLE FOR PER-TEENS AND UP.

NARRATOR WAS GREAT, WELL SPOKEN AND EASY TO FOLLOW.

Great short book.

Without doing much research... this book seems to be a short insert addition to the series with Blightmage as book 1.
This is a really good story.
I wish I had a better memory so that I could recall how these characters connect to book 1.
Great fantasy story. Not harem.
I got this book for free with the expectation of an honest review.
5 stars.

Another well written & enjoyable read/listen

Darkworld: The Fall of Ashathar (Kataklysm: Origins), my thirty-fifth read from author Theophilus Monroe and the first "co-written" with T.R. Magnus.. Theophilus Monroe has become one of my favorite authors over the last year. Well written & enjoyable read, different than his typical work. I was given an Audible copy of this book (and own a Kindle copy as well so I could read along while being read to) & am voluntarily reviewing it. Kelley Hazen’s narration again adds to the book’s enjoyment. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

Unusual Origin Story

In this story, "Kataklysm, brings humanity to the brink of extinction and occurs every three thousand years". Two unlikely people, Tannen who is an archaeologist and Valoria who is an astrologist, must find a way to avert the newest Kataklysm. I enjoyed the story. I liked the unique characters. I appreciated the complex worldbuilding. Kelley Hazen's narration was good, and her expressive voice kept my attention. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

A good start

This story was very good and well explained. A different type of fantasy than I normally read, but I will be reading the rest of the series. The narrator did a good job giving each character their own voice. I look forward to seeing where this story leads.
