About this listen

A Gotrek Gurnisson Audiobook

Greywater Fastness – an industrial canker in the heart of Ghyran. Foundries and metalworks pump soot and fire endlessly into the skies of the Realm of Life. Dusty streets hide peril at every turn, and attacks by the Dreadwood Sylvaneth hamper the city’s relentless encroachment.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Gotrek takes on some of his earliest enemies again – the scheming skaven! It may be a different time, and a different world, but the legendary Slayer hasn't lost his knack for dealing with vermin.

THE STORY

Gotrek Gurnisson barges into Greywater Fastness seeking answers as to why his Fyreslayer rune is mysteriously waning. But finding them in the stronghold's clogged and blackened arteries may prove far more difficult than first thought, and with skaven warlocks building something deep underground – something that will cement their place in skavendom forever – Gotrek begins to wonder if he might instead find that which has eluded him these past ages – his doom.

start of a new campaign...

A really enjoyable listen interms of story and the narration is superb. it is true there is not a huge amount of gotrex at the start but that is similar to past novels such as skavenslayer which had he greater focus on the side kick Felix and the protagonists. This book feels like the start of another campaign with it covering some of the back ground of newer characters. So I really look to the next one.

This isn't a gotrek book

Unfortunetly this doesn't continue from plague slayer, it basically ignors the setup and its as if all of gotreks development has been forgotten or reset. It's very plane and a little boring for Warhammer. The story revolvs around a new character who was very boring when compared to every other main character gotrek has met. Gotrek is in roughly 1/4 of the story and the skaven a little less. I cant recomend this story because it dosnt hold up when compared to any other AOS or Fantasy story. what a shame. HOWEVER the narrator is fantastic as always, too bad he didn't get a lot of gotrek or skaven dialogue...

A step backwards. Barely a Gotrek book...

Just as a standard AoS story you'll have fun. The main lass is interesting and the villains are great fun. If it was presented as just another novel to go with 4th Ed. I'd give it 4 stars.

However, this is sold as a Gotrek book and that's where it fails miserably. It feels like right up until the last chapter that the story had been written without him and then he was shoehorned in after the fact. Honestly listening to it there were multiple times I forgot Gotrek was even in the book at all. There's also the issue of his character... all the growth he's had over the last few books and even the path and tease set at the end of Blightslayer (The previous novel) gets handeaved away in a couple paragraphs.

A good 4th Ed. story but by far the weakest of the AoS era Gotrek books. Honestly if you're looking for a Gotrek story specifically then skip this one entirely, Given the way this shrugged off what's come before I can't even suggest reading it to be caught up for the next book because it probably won't matter.

The novel equivalent of anime filler.
