#8 - The Word Bearers Omnibus by Anthony Reynolds (Reviewed by Bane of Kings)

Bane of Kings reviews the Word Bearers Omnibus, written by Anthony Reynolds, published by Black Library and containing the novels: Dark Apostle, Dark Disciple, Dark Creed plus the all-new short story Tormented. The Omnibus edition is released in January 2012, available for Pre-Order from Black Library’s Website now.

 “Prepare for a brutal onslaught of endless war. Action packed, fast-paced, the Word Bearers are not to be underestimated, and neither, is this collection of novels to be missed. A Page-Turner.” ~The Founding Fields

Note: Because this is a review of a trilogy, there will be some spoilers involved, however, I’ve tried to keep them to a minimum.
