4.0
Set in and around the fortress known as The Seven Words, in the Realm of Ghur, this is a typically boisterous tale of Hamilcar Bear-Eater of the Astral Templars.
Told in an unusual first person present tense this has a hint of myth and legend about it, emphasised by Hamilcar’s exaggerated confidence-slash-arrogance and matter of fact self belief. Story-wise it’s all a little daft, and the narration style takes a little getting used to, but it’s nonetheless really rather entertaining to follow Hamilcar’s antics as well as explore an interesting corner of the Mortal Realms.
