What a great book I was expecting quite a lightweight story, without much substance, that just was a bit of fluff for the Warhammer game. I was so wrong - this book is brilliant! There's so much story here - scenario after scenario plays out as the various groups of characters follow along with overarching events, with plenty of setup and pay-off along the way, some satisfying come-uppances and some tragic twists of fate. I loved the detailed writing and imagination on display - it was all really immersive and easy to visualise. Bit violent in places but that goes with the territory I suppose. I think overall I was glad that there was so much payoff and progress in a book that's just the start of a huge series. Highly recommended.
