Story
Neil Gaiman has long been inspired by ancient mythology in creating the fantastical realms of his fiction. Now he turns his attention back to the source, presenting a bravura rendition of the great northern tales. In Norse Mythology, Gaiman fashions primeval stories into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the legendary nine worlds; delves into the exploits of the deities, dwarves, and giants; and culminates in Ragnarok, the twilight of the gods and the rebirth of a new time and people.

It was the end of World War II. FDR's New Deal had redefined American politics. Taxes were at an all-time high. The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki had created a fear of total annihilation. The rise of secret government agencies and sanctions on business had many watching their backs. America's sense of freedom was diminishing... and many were desperate to take that freedom back.

For the handful of scattered Jedi, survival is imperative if the light side of the Force is to be protected and the galaxy somehow, someday reclaimed. Yet more important still is the well-being of the twin infants, Leia and Luke Skywalker, the children of Anakin and his doomed bride, Padme Amidala. Separated after Padme's death, they must be made safe at all costs, lest the hope they represent for the future be turned to horror by the new Sith regime, and the unspeakable power of the dark side.

Winter is coming. Such is the stern motto of House Stark, the northernmost of the fiefdoms that owe allegiance to King Robert Baratheon in far-off King's Landing. There Eddard Stark of Winterfell rules in Robert's name. Far to the north, behind the towering Wall, lie savage Wildings and worse - unnatural things relegated to myth during the centuries-long summer, but proving all too real and all too deadly in the turning of the season. Yet a more immediate threat lurks to the south, where Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, has died under mysterious circumstances....

Publisher's Summary
A brutal warrior, Kratos is a slave to the gods of Olympus. Plagued by the nightmares of his past and yearning for freedom, the Ghost of Sparta would do anything to be free of his debt to the gods. He is on the verge of losing all hope when the gods give him one last task to end his servitude. He must destroy Ares, the god of war. But what chance does a mere mortal have against a god?
Armed with the deadly chained Blades of Chaos, guided by the goddess Athena, and driven by his own insatiable thirst for vengeance, Kratos seeks the only relic powerful enough to slay Ares---a quest that will take him deep into the mysterious temple borne by the Titan Cronos! From the black depths of Hades to the war-torn city of Athens to the lost desert beyond, God of War sheds a brutal new light on the best-selling video game and on the legend of Kratos.

A great book
I think both fans of the God of War series and people who have never played the game before will enjoy this book. It fleshes out the character of Kratos more fully. Although it does not stick strickly to the exact events of the game I think this is a point in it's favor, since most people who buy this book will be people who have also played the game they will most likely not just want to listen to a description of the events of the game.
As for the narration, I think that Stephen Hoye does a very good job. I only have a few small complaints that have to do with putting the wrong sort of emotion in Kratos' voice, but these instances are few and far between and all in all they don't really hinder the immersion.

Love God of War..... BUT!!!
I love the games! I have played and beaten them more times than I can count.. This story is OK as well but lacking towards the end.. No army of hades? No cerberus? Seemed rushed towards the end and it shows! Also the narrator doesn't match the games tone and voice! Again also.... He mis pronounces most all the names

One continuous fight.
Definitely a novelization of the game. If you're looking for a audiobook that has a very choppy storyline and is basically one continuous fight for 10 hours, this is the book for you.

Good, But, Not A Masterpiece.
This book is great, with a wonderful storyline and character development. But, in my humble opinion, it has nothing on the novelization of the newest game. That is my absolute favorite God of War novel they've created yet! I just purchased God of War II, and plan on staying it either tonight, or tomorrow morning. I'll havea review on it directly. I would recommend you give these books a listen if you, A) like the God of War games, B) are into Greek and/ or Roman mythology, or, my personal favorite, C) love them both! Lol! It's an enjoyable listen though. Strongly recommended!

Fantastic Narration
I really enjoy this narration. I never played the games, but I am familiar with the story (after rewatching cut scenes and gamers play through). This narration is excellent. Stephen gives the characters an excellent portrayal: gives Kratos deep pain and regret buried beneath that Spartan pride; the gods are all have great personalities. I haven't finished it yet, but I really enjoy this.
