Publisher's summary

A Gotrek & Felix Audiobook

When Gotrek and Felix race to the aid of the besieged dwarf city of Karak Kadrin, they are drawn into a war that threatens the entire Old World, and pitted against a foe who could be the one to fulfil an ancient prophecy.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

It's a timeless tale from the Gotrek and Felix archives that sees the intrepid adventurers battle against a warhost of Chaos that seeks nothing less than opening a rift into the heart of Chaos itself.

THE STORY

Gotrek and Felix: unsung heroes of the Empire, or nothing more than common thieves and murderers? The truth perhaps lies somewhere in between, and depends entirely upon whom you ask.

Gotrek and Felix race to the dwarf hold at Karak Kadrin, finding it besieged by one of the grand armies of Chaos under the command of Warlord Garmr. When King Ungrim Ironfist speaks of the legendary 'Road of Skulls' and of the hated foe's attempts to open a portal into the Realm of Chaos, Gotrek senses that a great doom awaits him – though it may not be the one he would choose for himself. As the king's own son leads his army of Slayers to fulfil an ancient prophecy, it seems that Garmr's hour of victory may be at hand.

Great book

Great book, I love gotrek and Felix can’t wait for the next one and this voice actor is a legend

Another amazing Story!

Johnathan Keeble is the GOAT I love how much he pulls you in! This book is great as one would expect!

Love gotrek and Felix but….

I love all of the gotrek Felix audiobooks but I’m a little confused why this is number 12 in the series when it goes back 20 years, the storyline isn’t in order anymore. I’m hoping you guys fix that and yeah that’s all I got the only complaint I have can’t wait for the other ones to come out.

Great listen

Great continuation of the story with some expected changes. On the edge of my seat the whole time. Having had fought with the dwarf army in Warhammer Fantasy and knowing the stats for Gotrx and Felix as well as Iron Fist. Ungrim has some remarkable stats and shouldn’t be so easily bested in battle

Brutal but good.

Very compelling story with a lot of great parts and brutality engrossed in it. An absolute war fantasy that cannot be replicated.

Where is Snorri?

Overall, I really enjoyed this book. There was lots of gory action and excellent world building, but where was Snorri Nosebiter!?

At the end of zombie slayer, the guys were on their way to Karak Kadrin so that Snorri could pray at the altar of Grimnier to regain his memories so he could regain his doom. Snorri was only mentioned once in passing in the entire book.

Also, we're introduced to four primary villains, and given hardly any background information on them. It's like we were already supposed to know who these villains were from previous books, but none of them have been mentioned before.

Lastly, there's no mention of Kat whatsoever in the entire book. If I remember correctly, she was accompanying the guys to Karak Kadrin at the end of zombie slayer.

It seems like this book actually takes place sometimes earlier in the series, rather than where it is listed in Audible.

Great story, but forgets everything that happened up to this point. like a reset or something.

oved the audio book but completely broke the lore. ignore the previous adventures completely. drops snori, Kat, like they never existed. still a good story, but felt like a book 1, not book twelve.

wow just wow another banger they never stop

May sigmar or the Dark 4 bless Jonathan keeble and his beautiful and intelligent way of story reading/telling a must listen I've been here since book 1

Takes place during the events of Trollslayer (Book 1)

This book does not leave off where Zombieslayer ends. it takes place about 30 years earlier. Takes places during Trollslayer between" The dark beneath the world" and "Blood and darkness" It can be considered noncanon, but still a decent listen.

Simply Gotrek

I love this series. And narated perfectly
And finally some insight in gotreks past.. fantastic
