Summary

Vaults of Terra Book 2

Inquisitor Erasmus Crowl and his acolyte Spinoza face new dangers as the Great Rift opens and a new, bloody age dawns. Can Crowl stay true to his course and expose the horror that lies at the heart of the Hollow Mountain?

Listen to it because...

Discover what happens when Chaos comes to the Throneworld itself for the first time in 10 millennia and agents of the Inquisition must deal with conspiracy even as monstrous daemons are clawing at the door....

The story...

Inquisitor Erasmus Crowl has discovered a terrible plot, its roots firmly planted in the very highest levels of Terra. Pursuing it is fraught with risk, but Crowl’s sense of duty compels him to persevere.

He and his acolyte Spinoza run down their leads in secret, knowing that their every move invites danger, but even as they begin to reveal the truth, a greater peril is unfolding in the skies - the Great Rift is becoming manifest. During the madness that threatens to tear Terra asunder, Crowl’s Inquisitorial base of operations comes under attack and is badly ravaged. As his world begins to unravel and a new, bloody age dawns, can Crowl stay true to his course and expose the horror that lies at the heart of the Hollow Mountain?

Written by Chris Wraight. Total running time 9 hours and 47 minutes. Narrated by John Banks.

Superb book

I read the 2 vaults books one after the other and absolutely loved them, the narration was outstanding and the story itself fantastic, it left me wanting much more of this tale

no closure

The book follows up nicely on the previous one. The story is gripping but there seems to be no closure. I understand cliffhangers but nothing seems to be resolved in this book. And as if yet (September 2021) there is no sequel out to get the answers. Short: good but left me wanting.

Good read prefer the first.

Good read great narration. Preferred the first book, little bit of a lacklustre build up to the end and the main antagonist. Still good though

Good continuation of what could be an epic

Easy listen and a great continuation of the story so far, you definitely need to listen to book one to understand the characters and motivations. It's not as strong as Isenhorn but it's got some great story telling of its own almost in a contained universe on terra. Looking forward to listening to book three for sure.

Intruiging and fascinating look inside Terra

Loved it from start to finish. Narrator is spot on and the journey inside the hollows mountain is just intruiging. Paints a fantastic picture of what happened on Terra when cadia fell. When is the next book coming out!

A continuation.

a continuation of the previous book. The plot expands, and you get to see more of the inner workings Tera, and the empire.

My only nitpick is that the assassin character from the previous book seems for the most part tacked on.

Hungry for more.

Brilliant and in depth

Great Writing as ever from Chris W. I love his in depth look at Terra in the 41st millennium as well as brilliant character creation. I nearly cried at one point.
