Vital Stats:
Page Count: 414
Era: 40k (no specified year)
Perspective: Space Wolves
Major Characters: [Inquisitor-text]Ragnar Blackmane, Madox, (The Mighty) Haegr, Gabriella, Torin, Wolf Priest Sigurd
Special Guest Stars: [Inquisitor-text]Bulveye, Berek Thunderfist
One Sentence Review: Strong conclusion to the Wolfblade Trilogy
A Few Musings: Despite the monumental task of filling in for William King, the two anonymous writers who go by Lee Lightner have done a very good job of capturing the flavor of the colorful characters King invented. The story bring full circle Ragnar Blackmane and describes[Inquisitor-text] how he became a Wolf Guard without being a Grey Hunter. I liked how King used an older and wiser Ragnar reflecting back on his life to tell his story. I think Lightner raised the bar with[Inquisitor-text] a great reveal at the end that left me wanting more. The 40k universe to me would not be the same without [Inquisitor-text]Ragnar and (The Mighty) Haegr (else I would receive a thrashing). There is a very good sequence where Ragnar meets Bulveye. Although this site is "spoiler lite", I won't give anything else away. Also the ending and end sequences were well executed.
Despite the flavor text on the cover stating "The gripping conclusion to the saga of Ragnar Blackmane", [Inquisitor-text]I am hopeful that Lightner will write a book about Bulveye (and the group he is with) and Ragnar in the very near future.
