HWFWM 10 is like reading Defiance of the fall 1. 75% setup with a fun grand finale. while not a story to go back to often, the real impact of the time taken to explain detaiils in this book will be measured in future books.

Made me laugh, showed the path forward (too well), makes boons 4, 5, 6 more meaningful.

Hopefully this is the last expo dump.

This was a struggle to get into and by the end felt underwhelming. the first half of the book is so different, and the shift in characters is so swift into what feels like a whole different book.

This is only the 2nd lit rpg I have tried so take this with that in mind.

This was so focused on the background of all the numerous systems and gimmicks (bones) while offering barely any narrative story (meat). It was like some people sat and compiled every d and d campaign absurd moment and put a string through them calling it a story.

If you think a string of random encounters filled with quips and absurd characters qualifies as a well told story, this book is for you. Maybe that's all lit rpgs are which will turn me away from the genre shortly.

The sad part is I like the 2 main characters and many of the side characters. Their dynamic is fun and it would be great to see them in something ither than the cheapest ripoff of a battle royale.

One of the greatest aspects of the Warhammer Universe is while the world and lore is vast, it's content is often delivered in small bite size chunks with it's own unique and impactful flavor.
This was a great sampling of the governing actions and impact of the undead and a few exceptional champions. Worth a read (listen) if you enjoy Warhammer lore, and a fun mystery.

4 stars because it felt a bit repetitive at periods throughout.
