A Warhammer 40,000 Anthology

Da Red Gobbo – a name synonymous with seizing liberty from the iron fist of ork oppression, and one that inspires revolt and stokes the fires of rebellion in grot bellies.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Join the Revolushun with this collection of tales covering the exploits and escapades of the diminutive, yet powerfully enigmatic, grot-icon that is Da Red Gobbo.

THE STORY

Follow a collection of grots from across the galaxy that take up the mantle of Da Red Gobbo. Having put on the legendary cape, can they overcome humans, the followers of the Dark Gods, and orks to claim the loot and show everyone that you should never underestimate a grot?

DRGC gets a grade of D+ cuz dats da dakka’iniest ladder (letter? or is lettuce ?) ya can get, ya gitz!

An awesome exploration inside both grot and orc culture with some hilarious settings and stories serving as the vehicles that give us a look at

-an expanded understanding of internal factors that can help or hurt the waaagh/orks’ momentum.

-superior orky-know-whats

-many hilarious and interesting bits where we get to see what orks and grotz think of many different hume practices from commissars to beaky organs and even some they admire

-the Red Gobbo virus

-and above all the truth about the Red Gobbo (as far as there can ever be any reality or truths in the 40K-verse) above Obviously, with the little gits sometimes getting the better of an entire world’s nobs and sometimes, we get both hilarity and some poignancy.

Da Revolution

Da orc datz narrating iz a propa talka. Forz onze da Grotz get theys propa shinier. Grotz togetha stronk.

Funny, smart, and Well written.

Jumped around a bit, but easy to follow except for the first two story switches.

loved the different Gobos and how they each rose to their own power.

loved the first story, really wish we could have had more of that team.
what I didn't like, some of the stories feel mixed up or in the wrong place one story telling the ending before the beginning..... so yeah

orks

iz good fur a laugh, az orkz shud be! even bout som gitz, leadz by somz oder got smaller gitz

Orky goodness all the way through

This is an incredible collection for ork fans. While each of the stories involve grots and the red gobbo in one way shape or form, each varies wildly taking a new twist on the character. One of the stories protagonist isn't even a group, but a pain boi which was a pleasant change of perspective. Cannot recommend enough.

More Orky Fings!

Excellent, there just isn't enough Ork perspective work out there...we need more and we need Harry Myers to read it to us!

Always fun with orks and gobbos

Harry Myers is always my go to, number 1, 10/10, 5 star, favorite voice for orks if his name is on an ork audio book it’s an easy buy.

Da revolution!

If u iz one of da gits dat enjoys a good crumpin, den yous gonna love dis book an get ready for da revolution. U ain’t wanna mis dis one ere lots a grots, sum red a sum green, even a squig or two. Lots a waaarrrggghhh an dakka, da boi’s loved dis one ere. If ya’s got enough teef den get da book, itz sure ta get ya in da holiday spirit.

Long Live Da Gobbo!

Honestly loved the whole sequence of stories. All three writers did a great job here. Also did not expect to feel emotion for the greenskins, but by Gork n Mork, they made me feel things. Unorky things. I was about a grot shiv away from full on crying at the end of the second story and even felt a touch of pride and sadness at the end of the third story with that final toothy lunge. I understand why the short stories were put after their respective stories, but I do wish they had been beforehand since they are both prequels. Just personally prefer chronological order, but again I understand the "Ohhh so thats what happened" feeling they were going for by putting them both after. Overall, a great collection and I was thrilled to finally have them in audio form and not just ebooks. Looking forward to more orky short stories being put together as audiobooks and hopefully theyll also be recorded with the fantastic Harry Myers. He really gets all the greenskins and how they should sound.
