review 1: The Dark Eldar are my favorite race in the Warhammer 40K universe and there are very few stories written showcasing them as the main characters. This novel did not disappoint. Andy Chambers does a wonderful job of highlighting the society of the Dark Eldar- deadly, ruthless, depraved, psychotic and always...always conspiring. The Dark Eldar are sadistic, and Andy Chambers provides many examples in this mindset in the book. Having read Gav Thorpe's Path of the Eldar series, it was good to see the differences between the two factions and the beliefs and methods they use to address the lurking Chaos danger they fear. I look forward to reading the next book in the series.
review 2: This book is great, pulpy fun for 40K/Black Library lovers in general, and Dark
... moreEldar enthusiasts particularly. Characterization is a bit flat, and theres no real sense of mounting stakes though. Many of the 40K novels fall prey to this, and it comes down to the source material often. Every event or bit of lore is more epic and overpowered than the last, every warrior or weapon the ultimate expression of death in the galaxy. Its tough to make any narrative seem "real" in even the loosest sense when the entire IP lore is one big case of powercreep. However, this book is loads of fun if you are at all invested in the source material. less

Intriguing and gruesome space opera tale with an epic plot and vivid, even if unpleasant characters.

A vivid and entertaining journey into a dark and sadistic world I am glad to not inhabit.
