December 20, 2012 at 3:05AM EST Reply to CommentThat doesn't sound a continuation of the story line. At the end of Chronicles, Riddick became leader of the Necro-Mongers. I thought Furya was already destroyed by the High Marshall when he was trying to stop the prophecy. It would have been nice to see that storyline get continued. Sounds like they changed some stuff or maybe its a prequel? or both?
Dee money The last move he did not die but killed the high Marshall and set in throne seat
