Publisher Description
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 bestselling video game and on the legend of Kratos.

"The fight with Ares was pretty underplayed. It would have been better if this was written in first person. But it was a quick and amusing read. -Big fan of the series"

" god of war is a very nice book. Teaching that some nightmares may not go away but can be blown. Mind blowing it was a little off of the game it self "

" I tried really hard to finish this book, but I couldn't. The book is very repetitive: Kratos fights and causes much gore. Then the gods plot against each other using Kratos as a pawn. Repeat ad nauseum. After half the book like this, I could not take it anymore and had to stop. "
