News: Your book shelves should tremble in fear at what's coming.



Kratos may have decimated the pantheon of gods, but is he any match for Conan the Librarian?

We'll all find out together when the Ghost of Sparta begins his literary career with the publication of the God of War novelization on May 25. Written by Matthew Stover and Robert E. Vardeman, the novel lovingly retells all the brutality and chaos from the first game in the series. Such as this description of Kratos' first meeting with the Hydra:

Up from the invisible depths rose a vast reptilian head with eyes like shields of flame and gleaming swords for teeth. Its jaws could bite chunks from the mightiest ship on the Aegean; its spiny ears swung wider than a galley's sails; from its nostrils poured a choking frigid smoke. It ignored the ships behind it, staring instead down at Kratos. Its immense neck arched, and its eyes blazed, and it roared down upon the Ghost of Sparta with a sound too vast to be called noise. The stark shattering thunder drove Kratos to his knees. Briefly.

Kratos rose. At last: something worth killing.


Sony has made the first chapter available online (as a PDF) for your reading pleasure. Read it or Kratos might come after you.
