Publisher's summary

Book 3 of The End Times

The End Times have come to Ulthuan. The battle that began millennia ago will finally end, as the druchii march upon the soil of their ancestral home once again and Malekith claims his destiny.

Listen to it because...

It's Gav Thorpe writing about elves, finishing the story he began in The Sundering trilogy. Storylines decades in the making reach their conclusion in an epic that changes the fate of the elves forever.

The story:

The End Times are coming. With Naggaroth besieged by the hordes of Chaos, the Witch King Malekith makes the decision to abandon the Land of Chill and make one final attempt to seize the throne of Ulthuan. As the druchii march upon the soil of their ancestral home once again, long-laid plans come to fruition and treachery blooms, bringing Malekith closer than ever to his goal. All that stands in the Witch King's way is the Regent of Ulthuan, Prince Tyrion, and the darkness within Malekith's own soul, the call of the Curse of Khaine.

Not my favorite of the five

Unfortunately, I am not a huge fan of Elves. This book, suggested by the title, is all about the elves. I also am not a huge fan of the main character. He is not likable antihero. He is spoiled, smug, and greedy with no redeeming qualities.

Malakith is a pain as a character

He is really annoying and is the cause of all his own problems. I know that is the point but its hard to have him as a protagonist rather than a villain when he is like this.

Definitely pick this one up

If you’re a fan of Warhammer, and you want to know how the world ends pick this one up, also get the return of the nagash and the fall of altdorf great books to lead up to this one and I hope they continue to release the rest can’t wait

Good but can be difficult to follow

I imagine this would have been alot easier to follow in written form, but there were alot of flashbacks throughtout the storry that the narration would just jump into without any pause or signal that they had shifted dramatically, and often time with the same characters at each event. You really need to be paying attention to catch the shifts

Malekith is mean

I was hoping for some character growth, since they made the Edgy guy Malekith Assurian and the gleaming fire sword guy Tyrion the bad killy guy.
but nope, Malekith is still a meany head he just begrudgingly doesnt kill people now cause it'd be politically inconvenient.
they really should have stuck to established lore or character archetypes and have the evil murder guy take the murder sword but..
overall a decent read if you like historical elf lore.

Would recommend

Great stuff involving the elves but this book is slightly rough to follow at times with all the random flashbacks.
