All warhammer books series#
The series shows the rise of Sigmar from the son of the Unberogen King to becoming the Emperor. Each of the books is well-paced, easy to read and they tell possibly the most important story in the Old World without disappointing. The Sigmar Trilogy by Graham McNeill is possibly the best series of Warhammer novels that has ever been written. It’s a great standalone adventure and another great urban tale in the Old World.Īvailable as an eBook on the Black Library website. The book tells the story of the White Wolves of Middenheim and how they stop an evil threat to the city. It isn’t the best novel I’ve ever read but it is still a damn good read. This is the first ever Warhammer book I read (and the frist Dan Abnett one) and as such, it has a very special place in my heart. Hammers of Ulric by Dan Abnett, Nik Vincent and James Wallis The best way to describe it would simply be Sherlock in the Old World! The book is a series of short stories told as cases my particular favourite being the one involving feuding vampires.įor something beyond the blood and mayhem of the old world, and instead something with a bit of urban adventure and mystery, Zavant is well worth a read. It tells the tale of the great sage Zavant and his Halfling manservant Vido. I believe they are still all available on the Black Library as eBooks.Ī left field one this and you can only find it on places like Amazon and eBay second-hand.
They are rip-roaring fun, easy to read and a great introduction to the setting. We see everything from chaos cultists to Skaven and daemons to dragons. What follows is a series of increasingly incredible scenarios that manage to show off some of the best elements of the old world. The stories tell the tales of the Trollslayer Gotrek and his human companion Felix, who has sworn to record Gotrek’s deeds when/if he falls in battle. I’m a particular connoisseur of the first set of novels written by the excellent William King. The longest and best of series set in the Old World. Gotrek and Felix (originally by William King)
Before the end of the Old Old World (that makes perfect sense…), there were quite a few good novels and series depicting it some of which you can still buy. It is now euphemistically called ‘the world that was’. Ironically the Old World no longer ‘exists’, it having been destroyed in the end times and rebooted as Age of Sigmar. With the success of Total War: Warhammer, there has been a renewed interest in the Old World that the game is set in.
