About this listen

A Gotrek novel

When the Bad Moon rises, Gotrek Gurnisson descends into the heart of Skragrott, the Loonking's twisted, fungal empire in pursuit of vengeance.

Listen to it because:

The Slayer hunts the most ancient enemies of his people in the heart of their domain. It may not be the world he was born in, and they may go by the name grots now, but no self-respecting dwarf is ever going to turn down the chance to kill hordes of goblins....

The story:

Hell-bent on ridding himself of the Fyreslayer rune buried in his chest, Gotrek Gurnisson, the greatest slayer to ever live, travels deep into the strange, alchemical realm of Chamon. Using their mysterious aether-science, the Kharadron overlords of Barak-Urbaz offer an end to Gotrek’s quest. But, as the Bad Moon rises and murderous Gloomspite Gitz threaten to destroy the sky-port, Gotrek pits himself against the most ancient enemy of his people - the greenskins. While his aelven travelling companion, Maleneth Witchblade, struggles to keep him alive, Gotrek throws himself headlong into a bloody battle for survival that will take him into the dank, fungal heart of Skragrott’s Asylum.

Written by Darius Hinks. Running time 9 hours 46 minutes. Narrated by Jonathan Keeble.

Gitslayer follows in the now-old tradition of Gotrek stories in being something of a filler novel. It is a story where Gotrek is pitted against a particular foe whose race is largely chosen from a list of races that haven't been the antagonistic focus of a previous book. Nothing happens in terms of a broader story, though there are hints of some greater arc being developed. But, as with previous Gotrek novels that follow this format the tale is still worth telling and reading.

A worthy addition to the Gotrek mythos

Get this if you like Gortrex, if you like the Khadron and the Gloomspite. Its Jonathan Keeble so its a fantastic narration and he does the voices of the characters brilliantly.

The story is fine, nothing to spectacular, for me the best bits were expanding Gortrex and Malanith's characters and pushing their arcs and the story forward. The world of the Gloomspite Guts is also fantastically written and coupled with some vignettes of the wider mortal relms the books continues to build on what is now one of the the best fantasy settings. However its not spectacular the plot is fairly predictable and the villains, although fun, danger the screen time they deserve.

Solid git bashing action

absolute, sheer, total, complete grobi lunacy. throw in an overcharged rune powered slayer with astonishing anger management issues, a duplicitous elf, a clearly ptsd stormcast with a smattering of kharadron, cook until boiling and listen as everything goes sideways as only gotrek can manage. Gotreks attitude towards the new dwarf races has matured into a fine hatred, and it shows. his disdain being apparent all the way through. maleneth actually showing something other than mere tolerance and something akin to actual caring. and then throw in a bit of a twist... yeah I'm a waffling fan boy totally, but another fantastic gotrek tale. the sense of dread that is escalated by more than just outnumbering or beating gotrek and crew is pretty damned fine. if a little disjointed at first. if I say anything more it'll give away the story. but you gotta love a gotrek quip. and I'll leave you with this one...

"you need to stop mucking about with fart dragons, and deal with the real threat!"

quite possibly my favourite so far...

just as mad as the shrooms the grobi take...

Ever wondered what it's like to get into the head of a grot, stumpy, or humey?

This is a fungus fueled insight into the age of Sigmar universe, with the occasional tales from the crypt style side story. Soar above the clouds of a smog filled industrial revolution with Gotrek and Co, and wade your way through spore filled Asylum swamps where its dark, and dank, and sticky!

Jonathan Keeble's voice acting and narration is second to none! I loved this from start to finish.

Hilarious, dark, and grotty!
