Review of the full HEIRS OF GRIMNIR audio drama.
Disaster has struck the Unbaki lodge, as its Runefather and eldest Runeson have been found murdered and Aruk-Grimnir’s legacy chest stolen. Alongside his remaining brothers and the elderly Battlesmith Firebrand, sixth and youngest Runeson Forn sets out to retrieve the chest, discover who is to become the new Runefather of the Unbak lodge, and take revenge for the dead.
While the main Realmslayer stories have room to follow Gotrek as he rampages across the Mortal Realms, this is (unsurprisingly) smaller scale and lower key. It’s part of the same series, but off at a tangent from the main storyline, less worried about exploring the wider setting than pitting a group of proud, confident (arrogant, really) characters against each other and seeing what happens. If you’re after the visceral enjoyment of fyreslayers (and magmadroths) taking their anger out on their ancestral enemies there’s plenty of that to be found, but the real joy here is simply enjoying a great cast bouncing off each other and having fun with an entertaining script.

Far to short.

I enjoyed the tension between characters, and how they were compelled to strive after vengeance in a competitive fashion. The performance of the Vermin-Lord was particularly fun and made me more tempted to pick up Skaven stories.
