About this listen

A Gotrek Gurnisson Audiobook

Greywater Fastness – an industrial canker in the heart of Ghyran. Foundries and metalworks pump soot and fire endlessly into the skies of the Realm of Life. Dusty streets hide peril at every turn, and attacks by the Dreadwood Sylvaneth hamper the city’s relentless encroachment.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Gotrek takes on some of his earliest enemies again – the scheming skaven! It may be a different time, and a different world, but the legendary Slayer hasn't lost his knack for dealing with vermin.

THE STORY

Gotrek Gurnisson barges into Greywater Fastness seeking answers as to why his Fyreslayer rune is mysteriously waning. But finding them in the stronghold's clogged and blackened arteries may prove far more difficult than first thought, and with skaven warlocks building something deep underground – something that will cement their place in skavendom forever – Gotrek begins to wonder if he might instead find that which has eluded him these past ages – his doom.

New character feat. gotrek

this was a pretty fun story if it wasn't told in the "gotrek" series. this played out as someone's fan fiction insert character feat gotrek written like the old skavenslayer novel. 95 percent new character 5 percent gotrek just sorta there. overall decent but man if it isn't the manling I don't want to hear 95 percent of the story of a new character explaining herself and absolutely nothing to do with gotrek

Good to see the Skaven at it again

Puts me in mind of Skavenslayer with how our main character goes on through his world travels and making new friendships along the way.

Best in the AoS Gotrek series for me.

Gotrek seems to finally have found a companion he likes and I enjoy seeing them banter. The skaven are funny as ever. I’m looking forward to more Gotrek.

Good story

The story was on par with most Gotrek books. Jonathan does a 10/10 job as well. But it feels like they took all the progress or hints as to what’s going to happen in the last book and just threw them out the window which is disappointing.

Excellent narrator

To keep it short, Gotrek felt like a side character. While the novels have never been told from his POV he was always a driving force. Here, he feels like a secondary character rather than a protagonist.
The new human isn't terrible, but her practical dispatch of the final villain felt rushed and unearned.
This is a fine story for what it is, but it continues to feel like no one really knows what to do with Gotrek in the Mortal Realms. Bring back the elf, or Felix or let Gotrek Gurnison finally find his doom.

Interesting but directionless

I liked the book and I of course like Gotrek but man the authors of these books need to figure out what the plan is with Gotrek and where his story goes and what the end goal is. It feels like the authors originally had a much bigger plan for Gotrek with him possibly slowly ascending to godhood or at least demigod status and getting more involved with the worlds of age of sigmar in a grander scheme but slowly over the last two books the plot has derailed and it’s gone off the tracks which can be seen in this book. Now the story is very interesting and more time with the skaven is always great but man this book feels like it needed two or three more hours of plot to explain a lot of what they left up in the air and to give us readers a satisfying ending in the end it all felt really rushed and the ending was anticlimactic. Either the authors need to decided on a single companion to give Gotrek instead of this now rotating door of companions or listen to the fans and finally bring back Felix because while some of these companions work well with Gotrek it’s just not the same without Felix.

Not a Gotrek Story!

Gotrek exists as a backdrop with little better then filler dialog. You could remove him and have a perfectly acceptable story about his his new traveling companion. This is however marketed as a story in the Gotrek series not a side story. If black library relabels the story and changes it to an optional accessory not a continuing part of the Gotrek main storyline it be a good addition for age of sigmar universe.
