Epic heroes, mighty armies and terrifying monsters clash against the backdrop of magical landscapes. Raised as a slave in the Darkoath camps of Aqshy, Kiri dreams of a better life. Of a city of wonders, the place of her birth ... Lifestone! She despairs of ever reaching it until a fateful day arrives when her barbarian captors are attacked by Sigmar's noblest warriors, the Stormcast Eternals. Seizing her chance, Kiri flees through a mysterious realmgate that takes her far from the fiery lands of Aqshy. She arrives in the realm of Ghyran and finds the city of Lifestone. But a curse lies on this place, withering its noble spirit. Her path leads her to a special group of children who, like her, are realm-marked - the prophecised saviours of Lifestone. There's Thanis, the fighter; Alish, the inventor; Kaspar; the sneak and Elio, the healer. But dark forces are allying against the children and will do anything to stop them achieving their destiny.… (meer)

I thought I would give this book a try because what could a children's book set in the bloody grimdark Warhammer universe possibly be like? It ends up it's pretty much like every other children's fantasy novel. It's not necessarily a bad book by any means, it just doesn't feel like Warhammer; and I'm not sure it ever could. The only thing "Warhammer" are some of the creatures and the mention of the different Warhammer Realms, Realmgates, etc... but those could have been easily substituted with anything else and the story still would have worked.

The book certainly feels like the first in a trilogy (which it is), introducing the world, setting up the cast of characters and introducing a vague conflict that certainly will be thwarted in later volumes. It's a quick and fun read and it hits it's target audience, but I'm sure I won't be reading the rest of the trilogy. ( )
