Skaven Battletome Review

Grey Seer

Hammerhal

The Stormcast Eternals of the Hallowed Knights must uncover the mystery of the Hexwood before it brings the great city of Hammerhal to ruin. Dark forces stir within the bowers of the mysterious Hexwood. A great warhost of tzaangor beastkin, creatures devoted to the Chaos god Tzeentch, defile the once-verdant lands of Ghyran. All that opposes them are the Stormcast Eternals of the Hallowed Knights, noble warriors reforged in resplendent sigmarite and wielding the lightning of Azyr. But Tzeentch's followers are cunning, and as the Hallowed Knights wage bloody war in the forests, a secret and potentially ruinous attack on the great city of Hammerhal, which the Stormcasts are oath-sworn to protect, is about to begin. Both the warriors without and the hunters within the city must act fast, or the truth about the Hexwood will be the undoing of the Twin-tailed City.

Thanquol and Boneripper

Follow the tale of Thanquol and Boneripper, heroes of the Skaven, as the End Times draw closer. Expect plenty of duplicity and scheming as we explore their story. Grey Seer Thanquol is without a doubt (in his mind) the greatest nemesis of the Slayer, Gotrek Gurnisson and his companion Felix Jaeger. He, and his stalwart Rat Ogre bodyguard, Boneripper, have engaged in innumerable nefarious schemes and adventures across the World-That-Was, including… Claiming the deadly artefact known only as Wormstone to poison the city of Altdorf; the assassination of the Prophet of Sotek in a foreign land of giant lizards and endless jungle; leading an army against the dwarfs of Karak Angkul; and unintentionally finding themselves body-swapped. Will Thanquol find victory at long last, or will the incompetence of his underlings hold him back yet again? This omnibus contains three novels: Grey Seer, Temple of the Serpent and Thanquol’s Doom, and two short stories: 'Mind-Stealer' and 'Thanquol Triumphant'.
