Hallowed Ground

Warhammer: Age of Sigmar

By: Richard Strachan

Narrated by: Helen Keeley

A Warhammer Age of Sigmar audiobook.

The Siege of Excelsis is over, but the bloody battle has left its mark on the witch hunters Galen and Doralia ven Denst. When her father, Galen, disappears into the wilds of Ghur, Doralia sets off in pursuit, wracked with suspicions that Galen's quest may yet spell doom for all Excelsis.

Listen to it because: discover the mysterious past of Galen and Doralia ven Denst, in a tale of mystery and revenge set in Ghur after the Siege of Excelsis.

The story: the Siege of Excelsis is over at last, and the survivors count the costs amidst the rubble of their city. Even for Galen and Doralia ven Denst, two of the most feared witch hunters in the Order of Azyr, the horrors they have witnessed are not so easily dismissed. Struggling with the traumas inflicted by the siege, Doralia's concerns only grow when her father disappears into the wilds of Ghur. As she sets off on his trail, Doralia begins to suspect that Galen is hunting down a dark secret from their past - one that might hold the key to a new threat rising to engulf Excelsis.

With the city barely recovered from its ordeal, both witch hunters must make a fatal choice between the desire for revenge and the rigours of duty - and should they decide poorly, Excelsis will pay the price.

Written by Richard Strachan. Narrated by Helen Keeley.

Never cross the Order of Azar

Good story and excellent performance. Would recommend if you like Age of Sigmar and it’s lore! Get to see the human side of the witch hunters and their regrets.

Great Epilogue to the Broken Realms event

If you enjoyed the story of the Broken Realms books ( the transition into AOS 3rd edition) then this is a great vignette for the siege of Excelsis.
While the first half of the book was a little slower it eventually ramped up and the last 25% was great! Made me want to bust out some models and play it out on the table top.

Good listen

Probably the first Sigmar book I’ve really like outside of the gotrek series. Good narrator, decent story. Good enough for me to try the next book in the series.

Awesome

First off, I love witch hunters, this book was right up my alley. I absolutely loved it! Good length book and still wanted more. 10/10

Pretty solid listen

Despite it getting a little corny around the end, I'd recommend this audiobook. The author paints a fantastic visual picture for sure.
