Synopsis

A handful of heroes stand between a monstrous horde and the destruction of the mystical heart of Terrinoth, in this nonstop fantasy novel from the world of Descent: Legends of the Dark

The invasion of Terrinoth has begun. Brutal Uthuk Y'llan hordes swarm across the land, ravaging everything in their path. A great champion has arisen in the Darklands: Beastmaster Th'Uk Tar, bent on destroying the wild and mystical Bloodwood as his first step in conquering the great forests of the Aymhelin and annihilating the elves who call it home. If the Amyhelin burns, so will Terrinoth. Trapped between his army and the forest are a misfit band of elven, orcish, catfolk, and human refugees. To repel the murderous Beastmaster, they must overcome their differences, embrace their skills, and learn the secrets of the Bloodwood. They are the realm's only hope.

Thanks, Netgalley and publisher for the opportunity to read and review! Typical beginning for most fantasy stories, but definitely one I love - the beginning of the end, the darkness swallowing the light, the destruction slowly but surely destroying the peace. The main characters meet and unite in t......more

Goodreads review by Niklas on August 22, 2022

I've never played Descent but I've played Runebound and I always liked the lore of it, but it was never really very detailed. So when I found this book I thought it would be a good chance to learn more. Without giving away the plot, this could be described as classic fantasy fare. A party of misfits......more

Goodreads review by Anya on September 09, 2022

This is my second Descent novel and again I'm positively surprised at how much I enjoyed myself. I'll for sure read the other ones and the two new upcoming novels are already on my radar. The characters were an interesting bunch, different races, ages and backgrounds. Standard plot, but great pacing......more
