Darksiders: The Abomination Vault: A Novel

The authors power of description is amazing. However it is sometimes at the expense of the story. It seemed as if the last third of the book is when things started to gel. I almost gave up on it as it was a strain to read at first. Definitely not my kind of book even though I did finish it. I won't read another from this author even though he is a great wordsmith.

I'm a huge fan of the Darksiders games, and when I found out there was a book written based on it? I was ecstatic! I was glad for being familiar with Death and War from the games because it made this book so much more interesting and enjoyable for me. Ari Marnell definitely does them justice! However, this book is so well-written that I would recommend it as a stand-alone read without knowing about the games!

Im not that much of a reader but this book is awesome! I recommend to those who have played darksiders one or two to read this book. and wveryone else who hasnt played darksiders still read this book. You wont regret it
