The Chronicles of Malus Darkblade Book 1

Ambitious dark elf warrior Malus Darkblade leads an expedition into the dangerous Chaos Wastes, but finds far more than he had bargained for.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Adapted and expanded from the classic graphic novel, the saga of the most ambitious, treacherous and downright sneaky dark elf around (and that's saying something!) begins here.

THE STORY

When Malus Darkblade learns the location of a powerful relic, he decides he wants it for himself. Malus leads an expedition into the dangerous Chaos Wastes in search of this great weapon but finds far more than he had bargained for. Possessed by a powerful daemon, he must undertake an epic quest to save his very soul.

Written by Dan Abnett and Mike Lee. Narrated by Andrew James Spooner. Running time is 11 hours and 12 minutes (approx).

Was great in general, but the Narration really made the story come to life. Though the Story itself is absolutely awesome in its own right.

Amazing Narration!

Grundsätzlich nicht schlecht. Wer sich mit Warhammer auskennt, kennt vermutlich die Story hinter Malus. Das macht es leider bisschen vorhersehbar. Aber trotzdem gut. Würde weitere Folgen kaufen.

I have in fact waited for years to have Malus Darkblades adventures here on audible, and was overjoyed when I finally stumbled across this first book in the series.
I have grown tired of all those villians in recent times who always seem just to be misunderstood or trying to archiev somthing good but just do it in a bad way.
Not with Malus though. He is evil, ruthless and does not shy away from any atrocity to reach his selfish goals. Murder, torture and betrayel are simply his bread and wine.
Of course these actions dont go unpunished and often enough he finds himself on the receiving end of the ill intentions of other.

I can recommend this story/series to anyone who likes the villians and who is somewhat tired of the "hero" getting away "unscathed", even though in Warhammer that term is quite the stretch.

At long last this wonderfull villain appears here.
