| EA Announces Novel Based on Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning Electronic Arts and BL Publishing, a division of Games Workshop, announce that BL Publishing will release an original novel based on Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning. The first book in the new series of novels set in the Age of Reckoning, Empire in Chaos will be available in all major bookstores and on the BL Publishing website in early 2008. In Empire in Chaos, by noted Games Workshop author Anthony Reynolds, the lands of the Empire are being ravaged by a terrible plague. When Annaliese Jaeger's village is overrun and destroyed by mutants, she and an injured Elf captive are the only survivors. As the two unlikely companions fight their way towards Black Fire Pass, Annaliese discovers within herself powers of courage and faith that inspire all around her. With a grizzled Witch Hunter and a Dwarf Ironbreaker, the heroes battle alongside the armies of the Empire and the Dwarfs, above and below the earth, against greenskin tribes and the hordes of Chaos. Together, they must find their courage and help turn back the tides of darkness, lest all of the Empire be lost. Anthony Reynolds, the author of the novel remarked, "The Warhammer world is a grim place, full of horror, violence and dark humor, and the EA Mythic team have really brought that to life - faithfully creating a living, breathing, bellicose world being torn apart by constant warfare. It's the perfect backdrop for a novel. I'd been following the progress of the game for some time and it was easy to see that Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning was going to be something special." write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Game News :: home page |
