Publisher's summary

Of the many champions of Chaos, none are as great or as feared as mighty Archaon. He is the Everchosen, Exalted Grand Marshal of the Apocalypse and Ender of Worlds, and it is a worthy warrior indeed who can fight by his side. Such Knights of Ruin are known as the Varanguard. Only by answering the call of Archaon can a warrior of Chaos ascend to their ranks, and acceptance is never guaranteed, for their mettle must first be proven.

In this dark tale, three fell champions of the Chaos Gods all heed the call of the Everchosen. Each desires the ultimate prize: to become part of the Varanguard. But where one is chosen, others will fail, for Archaon's will is cruel and his trials exacting....

Sigmar the coward.

After listening to this, I see no hope for Sigmar. Chaos, remains strong. Great work.

A very intriguing perspective

This novel focuses on chaos side of the story. And though it might bee confusing at the start one soon sees the connection, 'the call'. Following a few potentials through their hours and fears was an very interesting point of view.

First book from Chaos' view

This is the first book in the series that is entirely in the viewpoint of Chaos. It follows 3 separate characters and transitions well between them. Even though I'm a Stormcast player and prefer their stories, this was a nice change of pace.

A good Chaos story

Offers a few different character perspectives for the forces of chaos, and an interesting over arching plot

Chaos!

Not that I don't love the Stormcast Eternals point of view but it was very refreshing to finally get an entire book dedicated to the thoughts of our Champions of Chaos.

a slog in some places

this sort of short story collection felt like often they were just trying to hit a word count. every time they switched back to the nurgle story they would spend five minutes using every adjective to say the land was rotting. over and over. the stories werent that good and I am a huge chaos fan. it was a disappointment.

the performance was fine (though his skaven voice was annoying and his archaon voice was not great). the main issue with the narration is that the narrator took the sentence "he yelled" to literal. who ever was the sound editor on this book did not do a good job. I listened to this on headphone and multiple times I had to scramble to turn it down to avoid the change in volume when the narrator yelled.

AoS has come a long way

wow. looking back the stories in AoS have come a long way from the bland days of the Realmgate Wars. not bad as a series of stories of you want recounting of battles from table top to novellas.
