About this listen
A Warhammer Age of Sigmar Novel
Excelsis, City of Secrets, stands proud in the Realm of Beasts. From its walls, Sigmar's followers push ever outward into the Ghurish Heartlands - but something ancient is about to awaken, and test the forces of Order like never before.
Listen to it because
Discover the struggles of Order as they attempt to assert their dominance in the wild plains of Ghur, which threatens to be claimed by the atavistic might of Kragnos and his followers.
The story
The Realm of Beasts has ever been a place of savagery and destruction, defiant in the face of Sigmar's feeble attempts at liberation. But now, deep within the mountains of the Ghurish Heartlands, something ancient stirs. A god long-trapped is about to awaken, and the drumbeat of war calls. Ferocious Ironjawz, gluttonous Ogors and towering gargants all set their sights on the human interlopers, determined to cast down their keeps.
It is into this maelstrom that generals Ellistor Seraphine Lisandr and Casius Braun march, sent forth from proud Excelsis to conquer new lands. It is a near suicidal task, made ever worse by the growing rift between Azyrite and Reclaimed. But Sigmar demands sacrifice, and the forces of Order are about to be tested like ever before.
Written by David Guymer. Running time 12 hours 15 minutes. Narrated by Andrew James Spooner.

Too many unpronounceable names of characters
Twelve human characters with odd unpronounceable names with some strange love interest shoehorned in, the only believable character is kragnos.
Story is ok the setting is good and it’s well narrated.

A fantastic look at life and death in Ghur
l loved this book. David Guymer does an amazing job of bringing the realm of beasts to life. Those who are looking for a book that solely focuses on Kragnos himself might be disappointed but we get a wonderful look at a variety of different factions, from two very different groups of humans to Orruks and Grots and another very well written Stormcast

Kragnos? More Grint please
I know that this is a book about Kragnos but for me all the other characters are what make this book so dammed good, there is Grint (give him a novel please) and his unrequited love for a celestial, Braun who eats his defeated opponents! Ironjawz, grots and gits, so much fun to be had, the narration is superb

I was lost in a sea of Hexmimite Geeblefarns.
Maybe this was a bad choice for a first Age of Sigmar novel, I am familiar with some of the background but I was just put out by the sheer amount of fantastical name dropping, the author must have been referring to his battle tomes to quote every Sigmar term.. No one could just have a sword.. It was a Valgarian slaughter blade, forged by the master smiths of Duag Mordaggar.
There was a big battle for a fortress against hungry, hungry ogors, not hippos, then a cavalry battle against some savage, ssavage orruks, no plot seemed to have emerged by that point.
The narrator did his best to be enthused and dynamic but it was occasionally a bit hammy owing to what he had to work with. I didn't really get attached to any of the main characters and just decided to stop listening at about 18% in. Is that unfair? I don't think so If a work of fiction doesn't draw you in then it is not the book for you.

slow predictable story arc with little complexity
As a story arc, it's quite poor and predictable. All "big battle" followed by "big battle". Races seem to have little to distinguish them other than the author slavishly repeating a key word like "hungry" for the ogres
