The Story

Ulfenkarn is a city of nightmares. Its vampiric rulers have indulged their bloodlust in every shadow-clad alley, turning the once-proud metropolis into a charnel house. Already crushed beneath the tyranny of Radukar the Wolf and his Thirsting Court, a spate of vicious murders plunges the mortal inhabitants into fresh terror. Emerging to uncover a connection between the attacks is an unlikely group of heroes: a vampire hunter from Carstinia; a slum-born vigilante; a ruthless wizard; and a soldier who is the last survivor of her noble bloodline. Arrayed against them are the undead monsters that thrive upon Radukar's gory regime. But a daring search for answers turns into a fight for survival when the Wolf himself descends his Ebon Citadel and joins the carnage in the streets....

Great companion for painting Cured City

This book was a great deal of fun and very well performed. Great companion for painting the miniatures for the Cursed City boxed game that is the setting for this title. if you're a Games Workshop or Black Library fan give this book a listen.

Great Worldbuilding

One of the greatest aspects of the Warhammer Universe is while the world and lore is vast, it's content is often delivered in small bite size chunks with it's own unique and impactful flavor.
This was a great sampling of the governing actions and impact of the undead and a few exceptional champions. Worth a read (listen) if you enjoy Warhammer lore, and a fun mystery.

4 stars because it felt a bit repetitive at periods throughout.

Narrator saved this one.

Did not like the story very much and some parts felt like they were rushed.
The narrator did a good job in making the characters interesting.

I would only recommend this book to people that play the boardgame.

Incredible

This story was an incredible journey that leaves you hungry for what is in coming next. The setting, the writing and a cast of unique characters all add a profound contribution to an exciting story. An excellent book that I wish was even longer.

Weak Hunter

The Vampire hunter was to weak... I'm surprised he survived through his rookie years, let a lone take on older vampires.
