Descent legends of the dark characters5/27/2023 ![]() ![]() The Star Brewery opened in 1852, producing beer for Shipstones until 1991. Asmodee Entertainment is based in an amazing building in Nottingham, England. ![]() The ebook will be available from the 5 th October 2021 with the US paperback following on the 12 th October and the UK one on the 25 th November 2021!Īconyte Books are the novel division of Asmodee Entertainment. A game which certainly helped make three UK lockdowns more bearable via Zoom and Whatsapp sessions with friends! I am definitely looking forward to the future novels in this series and will be adding a physical copy of this one to my others!Īs usual I want to thank Aconyte and Netgalley for the e-ARC. I also found the story stayed with me long after I had a read it and not just because of Shiver! I find it so refreshing to have quality fantasy novels based on one of my favourite games. It may be obvious I’m an avid reader but I have to admit I got so lost in this that I may have stayed up a bit too late (or early depending how you look on it) on work nights to read ‘just one more chapter’. The action is fast-paced and superbly written. Or even someone who just likes a good fantasy!Įven though I did know a little about the characters as mentioned above I wasn’t able to really guess what was going to happen or how it would all work out in the end another credit to MacNiven’s storytelling ability. So even a newbie to the game, or someone who is interested in getting started will be able to enjoy it. That said even if you had little knowledge of the characters from playing them MacNiven does a wonderful job at bringing them to life and showcasing their personality and history throughout the narrative. Our Adventurers obviously do come from the games, I was incredibly pleased to find Shiver taking a center stage as one of the trio since he is one of my favourite characters within the games. Anyone who enjoys Descent, Tabletop RPGs or Fantasy would, I believe, instantly be intrigued and hooked. Terrinoth is in upheaval new threats are rising, and one of them comes from the dark!įrom the start I was hooked, as is nearly always the case with these books. As the trio head on their way, none of them consider just what could be lurking in store. One of our adventurers is a wanted Dunwarr criminal, the other two have no wish to trust each other or work together – but the money is good not to mention other things that interest each party. Our three adventures, all have their own reasons to doubt this task but find something tempting enough to get them to agree. We start out when three separate adventurers, who have little trust or like for each other, are hired to investigate the recent sealing of Thelgrim, the great Dunwarr dwarf city. Robbie MacNiven definitely understands the world setting but he’s taken it and made it truly come to life!Īs usual I will try to avoid many spoilers past maybe a few names. ![]() Being based in the world of the Descent games you can expect an epic adventure and setting. I will start by saying this is a fantastic addition to the Descent novels line by Aconyte. ![]()
