DESCRIPTION
The fourth volume of the all-action Warhammer anthology collection showcases some of the best new fiction from across Games Workshop’s many universes. From the vast, unexplored wilds of the Mortal Realms to the unforgiving hive world of Necromunda, through to the sprawling warzones of the 41st Millennium, heroes battle for glory, for honour or simply for survival…
In this volume, you'll discover another tale from the gathered patrons of the Brazen Claw, that explores how the storm that traps them is deadlier than they could ever have guessed. You'll also discover the terrors that an abandoned Ecclesiarchy outpost holds for Inquisitor Sabbathiel, and go deep into the Realm of Death with intrepid aelven treasure hunter Shevanya Arclis as she seeks to plunder a wizard's hoard of artefacts.

Some great Warhammer and Age of Sigmar short stories in here, with a particular highlight for me being Denny Flowers' The Hand of Harrow, which manages to inject a little humour into a universe not notably blessed with laughter. The volume also has a particularly good story, 'Green and Grey', about a tank loader trapped in a wrecked Leman Russ who starts to hear the approaching roar of a raiding, and looting, party of Orcs. It's by some chap called Edoardo Albert.

Another solid selection of shorts, I really like this format, with veteran Black Library authors and introducing some new writers . Volume 5 will have the fifth part of the Brazen Hand serial, which should be nasty. Good stuff, check it out.

The most memorable stories to me were the Ork one and the Thousand Sons one. The story about the character on the cover was the worst one of all so not sure why that got the cover. I skipped the non-40k stuff.

Inferno continues to be excellent, and this volume's stories are all top notch.

Proving again that short stories are a great Warhammer format.
All good / great punchy tales, some fun twists.
