The weakest in the trilogy...and it doesnt tie up loose ends. Felt very rushed towards the end.
Thoroughly enjoyable dark fantasy. This is the third and last of CL Werner's Mathias Thulmann series, "Witch Killer" (following on from Witch Hunter & Witch Finder).I've got to say, as a trilogy, this was a very evocative and at times chilling example of Warhammer Dark Fantasy at its best, particularly with a brave willingness to allow multiple foul plots and deeds to advance together, with often unexpected clashes, rather than simply have a good team vs a bad team.Out of it all though, I was mo...
Such a great novel. So sad to finish this. I wish there were more Mathias Thulmann novels. This combines creepy "Old World" atmosphere with perfect pacing and enthralling action. The parts where the characters are investigating the conspiracy in town and tavern are just as intriguing as when the crisis comes to a head and bloody battle ensues. Compared to ths first two Thulmann novels, this one was my favorite. Thulmann is a Witch Hunter, the Warhammer Fantasy version of "Van Helsing" or Robert
The reader is left hanging: the B story of the vampire and necromancer look like they want to hook into a nonexistent fourth novel.Thulmann leans hard on Solomon Kane for concept: a dour, Puritanical warrior in service to an uncompromising god (who at times feels like it wants to be a monotheistic God but isn't) in a world of corruption and evil. And boy, does the Warhammer universe have corruption and evil.The advantage here is that Thulmann sticks to an urban or urban-outskirt setting, which h...
Last book of Mathias Thulmann series. I love the open ending of this book but unfortunately, most of the plot in this book is worts than in the second one. It's less complicated, flatter. A big plus is a new, emotional background of the main character (it's flat, easy romanced flavored one but still it is, we can see that he can be hurt) Well, in summary, if you read I & II part, read this one also. I no, don't bother with it.
I really enjoyed this book and the others in the series, its fun, action packed, darkly humorous and overall a good read.
The series takes a step back in its way of telling the story and the focus of the storytelling. Witch Hunter was a murder myster, a thriller, where the reader was trying to solve the "case" just as much as the protagonist. The second was far more action oriented and the reader more like an all-seeing observers. The third book has much action but its scale is smaller and style less like a Hollywood production. The reader in many ways knows more than the protagonist but still lacks the complete vi...
While not as over the top as the second book in the series (Witch Finder), it just didn't quite click, though it was still a fun read. I think Werner still wanted to fit too many story lines together, meaning that parts of the book felt forced in order to remind the reader of activity taking place outside of the main arc.
This last entry into the series is a bit of a mixed bag. It brings a lot of new elements into the overall story but is too ambitious for its page count…and as a result a lot of the carefully crafted groundwork of the first half are hastily discarded in an attempt to wrap up the story. Not sure if he was given a length requirement by the publisher, but both sequel books are much shorter than the first (359 vs ~200 pages) and it definitely shows here. The second book told a tighter and more contai...
