If you can buy this book while they last (a little bit expensive but you won't be disappointed). For fans of Warhammer 40.000 and phantasy/sci-fi alike.
We are introduced to a bloody but sublime world. Torvendis. With powerfull and daemonic forces combining to make it unique. The description of the great battles and of the somber city reminds me of that great classic Salambo of Flaubert that I am sure the author read.

After finishing Bens previous book, Soul Drinker, I was mildly annoyed he had not followed immediately with another tale of that Space Marine Chapter, and instead chosen to write Daemon World, of which I knew nothing about, fearing he might have changed tack and tried something different to the massive battle scenes and unending action that littered his debut.
Well, I had no need to worry, as if you drop Daemon World on the floor, any page it lands open on will be dripping with bloodshed and the screams of war. The action is excellently orchestrated again. The battles are large scale and grand at times, close and dirty in others. Ben vividly sets up his battlefield, then goes hell for leather pitting every undesirable agent of chaos from the Warhammer Universe against one another. The result is unrelenting and bloody enCounter once more.If you are into Warhammer Books you _have_ to read Ben Counter. If you enjoy action heavy sci-fi then the same applies. Keep them coming.
