The Fall of Altdorf

Warhammer Chronicles: The End Times, Book 2

By: Chris Wraight

Narrated by: Andrew James Spooner

Book 2 of The End Times

When the Emperor is lost, it falls to Reiksmarshal Kurt Helborg to return to Altdorf, capital of the Empire, and prepare to meet the forces of the Ruinous Powers in a final battle for that ancient city.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Not only does this novel chart the apocalyptic battle for the very heart of Sigmar's realm, but it brings back heroes and villains from across the Warhammer mythos and reunites the Empire in a most unexpected way…

THE STORY

The End Times are coming.

With the hordes of Chaos marshalling in the north, Emperor Karl Franz leads his armies in defence of his realm. But when the worst happens, Reiksmarshal Kurt Helborg must return to Altdorf, the capital of the Empire. There, he must steel himself and prepare his soldiers to defend the jewel of the Empire from the corrupted advance of the forces of Chaos.

As plague spreads and the defences weaken, all seems lost—until help arrives from a most unexpected source... if Helborg can bring himself to accept it.

Written by Chris Wraight. Narrated by Andrew James Spooner. Running time 13 hours 18 minutes (approx).

End times

Great read to see Karl Franz and Sigmar at their heights, leading up to their eventual fall.

Must listen

The Fall of Altdorf is a tragedy that keeps you hoping the entire way, and seething detail into both the war and the minds of the fighters makes for a breathtaking experience only heightened by the amazing voice of the reader. I will listen to this again!

I want more!

I really hope you add more sound effects and additional voices to your stories. Your amazing

...(sigh) everything.

loved every line. heartbroken to the core and sad to know the story of the world I knew over the last 30 years is no more.

Louen Leoncour is a beast!!!!

Another amazing performance by Spooner that encapsulates the story of mankind’s two greatest sovereigns that truly made me empathize with their weariness, and despair
