The "Warhammer" world is a land of grim fantasy and perilous adventure, threatened by the Dark Powers. This anthology of six stories features Genevieve the vampire, Vokutich the mercenary, Buttermere Warble the halfling investigator, and troll-slayer Gotrek and his human companion Felix.
A solid set of short stories - a pleasant surprise. True, I'd read the tales of Gotrek and Felix as well as Genevieve in the past - and enjoyed them so much I'd read their entire bodies of work, but the authors new to me here are also quite good. I'll be looking for more titles by authors in this collection as well as looking for the other anthologies in this early Warhammer series.
Stephen Baxter has an excellent piece online about this history of this and subsequent Warhammer fiction available online on vectormagazine's website.
