Whew..........finally done with a trilogy, before doing that, I was really thinking if I would like it............so pardon me Ladies and Gentlemen.........and here we go..............
Book one (forgot the title),
We are introduced to the Dark Eldar (think of them as Drow living in space), a race so advanced, haughty (they even brought down their own pantheon/gods) and merciless, anyone not their kind is considered game even their own!!!!
The story starts with Yllithian archon of the White flames, planning the downfall of Supreme Overlord Asdrubael Vect, tyrant of Commoragh the greatest planet/city of the Dark Eldar, together with Kraillach and Xelian, they attempted to resurrect one of Vect's notorious rival El'Uriaq.......with the help of a renegade haemonculus Bellathonis, they succeeded in gathering the necessary components( a worldsinger and the essence of El'uriaq).......I have omitted some of the more colorful chars, some of which I feel are irrelevant and some that I feel have become larger than the main protagonists!!! I leave the journey to you readers..........to embark on your own!!!
4 stars
Book two Path of the Incubus (do correct me if I am wrong)
The journey of two characters into their own brand of redemption........Morr and Motley and furthering the story........an incubus who will not bend, no matter the consequences and one of the enigmatic Harlequin, eldars who have agenda entirely their own, unwelcome to both Eldars and Dark Eldars......Morr, Morr more Morr, unfortunately the ending was not to my liking, the whole book rotated on this headstrong, stubborn(any difference between the two words......siiiggghh) but steadfast character, a paladin of the darkest sort......but still a paladin........
Writing further would destroy any future readers enjoyment.......I leave it to them........to satisfy their own curiosity..........
4.5 stars
Book Three Path of the Archon
Last book of the trilogy, wherein all roads converge.......unfortunately, this third book did not work it's charm, After finishing the second book, I tried to look for anything to look forward too, Yllithian was still alive and kicking, Bellathonis......ahhhhh the ingenious haemonculus......Xagor, the hardworking wrack, and a lot of more....well like my writing, the story became convoluted...? Suddenly we have the appearance of two Chaos gods(or rather their hands/presence/prompting???)........
3 stars
Overall, a really wonderful read since I truly do not have any idea of any sort for this evil race, even comparing them to the Drow, I can say they do have their own uniqueness.........honestly Morr, Morr and more Morr!!! But his story has ended, but Dark Eldar's have more to come!!!!
