Cado Ezechiar is a Soulblight vampire, a creature of the night bound to the will of Nagash. Yet he carries a secret: a hunger for vengeance that has nothing to do with his undead masters. The Hollow King (Paperback) (Anglais) is a Warhammer Age of Sigmar novel by John French and the first book in the story of the Hollow King.

Cado returns to the city of Aventhis, a place he once ruled and saw destroyed, searching for the one responsible for his downfall. To succeed, he must play the game of the living and the dead, navigating between the ambitions of mortals, the schemes of other vampires and the threats of the Mortal Realms.

John French delivers a dark and atmospheric tale of revenge, haunted by memories and lost souls, in which every alliance hides a betrayal. The Hollow King is a gripping introduction to one of the most intriguing characters of the Age of Sigmar, torn between the curse that animates him and the shreds of humanity he still clings to. Between gothic intrigue, sword fights and the grim power of the Soulblight Gravelords, this novel shows a fascinating side of the realm of death and of the creatures that rule it. Fans of vampires, of tragic heroes and of slow burning vengeance stories will find exactly what they are looking for, and the story continues in The Dead Kingdom.

Rich in atmosphere and memorable characters, this paperback is an excellent entry point into the vampire fiction of the Mortal Realms. It will appeal both to readers who enjoy gothic horror and to players who collect the Soulblight Gravelords and want to know more about their lords, their curses and their endless thirst for power.
