About this listen
A Warhammer Age of Sigmar Novel
The Bad Moon looms over the city of Draconium, and Watch Captain Helena Morthan knows it bodes ill for the town. Can she and grieving warrior Hendrick Saul foil the plans of the Gloomspite Loonking, and save their people?
Listen because...
Andy Clark tells a twisted and disturbing tale of the grots of the Mortal Realms, delving into darkness in more ways than one. Strap in—this is going to be a wild ride....
The story:
In the dark corners of the Mortal Realms, the mad and mysterious Gloomspite Gitz go to war, following the trail of their abominable lunar deity. Nowhere is beyond the sight of the Bad Moon—not even those places under Sigmar’s protection, like the sweltering city of Draconium. Beneath the scalding rains of Aqshy, the city is a boiling pot of tension, its regent praying to Sigmar for guidance while Watch Captain Helena Morthan douses the fires of anarchy: blades drawn in the streets, heretical doomsayers preaching the end of days, and insects eating watchmen alive. When the grieving warrior Hendrick and his ragged warband arrive at the gates with a prophetic warning, Captain Morthan sees a way to save her people. But with the Bad Moon rising in the sky above and Skragrott the Loonking plotting in the depths below, will there even be a Draconium left for her to save?
Written by Andy Clark. Narrated by Harry Myers.

This might be difficult to listen if you dread spiders and other insects, mold and mushrooms.
Autistic engineers making bombs, stubborn dwarves complaining, moldy zombies and religious zealots.
It starts slow, but when the mold hits the fan, it really does hit with a bang. I'd describe the latter half of the book a bit too exciting compared to the first.
There's also gits but you have to listen to the book for more than three hours.
Lunatic heroes against lunatic villains

This should really sit in the Warhammer Horror stable.
A fantastic slow burn of mounting terror.
Andy Clark does a brilliant job of constructing a sense of claustrophobic fear and tension, made all the sweeter because the reader knows from the title and cover what the threat is.
The Gloomspite, though often funny in appearance and speech, come easily across as preeminent horror figures in this work, with there being absolutely nothing funny about their behaviour.
Harry Myers does an outstanding job narrating the tale, slipping easily from his narrator’s voice into the vast array of character voices that he delivers, all of them easily distinguishable from each other.
Highly recommended to my fellow readers.
