Synopsis

Enter the extraordinary fantasy world of Descent: Legends in the Dark through the eyes of its most notorious necromancer as he begins his conquest of the realms of Terrinoth

Waiqar, Lord of the Mistlands, is a necromancer of supreme power, arrogance, and skill. Driven by his hunger for power, he has the whole of Terrinoth in his sights. But before he can raise his undead armies and march on the Baronies, his hold on the Mistlands must be complete. Waiqar's court is rife with scheming and deception, from corrupt vampires with plans to usurp him, to an apprentice harboring dark ambition of his own. As his enemies vie for power, Waiqar's own plans come to fruition. For power is hard won but easily lost, and this great necromancer has more to lose than anyone.

Curiosity and the cover prompted me to try out this epic and deranged world. It does not disappoint; indeed, this necromantic narrative follows three very different interconnected (I’d say lives but are the living) existences. Waiqar is basically the King of Necromancers, Tristayne is his apprentice......more
