About this listen

A Gotrek novel

When the Bad Moon rises, Gotrek Gurnisson descends into the heart of Skragrott, the Loonking's twisted, fungal empire in pursuit of vengeance.

Listen to it because:

The Slayer hunts the most ancient enemies of his people in the heart of their domain. It may not be the world he was born in, and they may go by the name grots now, but no self-respecting dwarf is ever going to turn down the chance to kill hordes of goblins....

The story:

Hell-bent on ridding himself of the Fyreslayer rune buried in his chest, Gotrek Gurnisson, the greatest slayer to ever live, travels deep into the strange, alchemical realm of Chamon. Using their mysterious aether-science, the Kharadron overlords of Barak-Urbaz offer an end to Gotrek’s quest. But, as the Bad Moon rises and murderous Gloomspite Gitz threaten to destroy the sky-port, Gotrek pits himself against the most ancient enemy of his people - the greenskins. While his aelven travelling companion, Maleneth Witchblade, struggles to keep him alive, Gotrek throws himself headlong into a bloody battle for survival that will take him into the dank, fungal heart of Skragrott’s Asylum.

Written by Darius Hinks. Running time 9 hours 46 minutes. Narrated by Jonathan Keeble.

Best frenemies forever!

Always a pleasure to enjoy the quips and derisive witty banter between Gotrek and Maleneth. This publication also explores an interesting tie between the two that neither wish to acknowledge and furiously deny.

Gotrek is back! Again.

I love to hear Gotrek’s adventures. And this book is especially entertaining. The Grots are just as charismatic and fun as the slayer him self!

Well written AOS book, worth a read.

Some of the books in the AOS universe aren't great, this is great though! evocative and interesting the grots make for quite interesting and unusual antagonists.

A worthy addition to the Gotrek mythos

Gitslayer follows in the now-old tradition of Gotrek stories in being something of a filler novel. It is a story where Gotrek is pitted against a particular foe whose race is largely chosen from a list of races that haven't been the antagonistic focus of a previous book. Nothing happens in terms of a broader story, though there are hints of some greater arc being developed. But, as with previous Gotrek novels that follow this format the tale is still worth telling and reading.

More Gotrek!!

The more stories about Gotrek the better 😁
This one also takes a look at the cultures of the Kharadron Overlords and the Gloomspite Gitz 👍

Worth a listen!

Loved the Gitz getting some more time in the loonlight! Felt a bit slow to get started but enjoyed the overall story progression.

Solid Gotrek novel with a great narrator

Gotrek books are solid formulaic fantasy , he smashed things , is grumpy , fights a troll and talks about honour and oaths. it's character driven heroic fantasy and Gitslayer achieves this. The Narrator brought the characters to life and energy to the battles , of which there are many. would recommend if you like Gotrek novels.
