The Bookkeeper's Skull

Warhammer Horror

A Warhammer Horror Story

Follow in the footsteps of Rudgard Howe, an enforcer cadet who, while on their first mission and embroiled in an embittered succession battle back home, uncovers a heinous sanguinary cult....

Listen to it because: in the grim darkness of the far future, horror lies in the most unlikely of places, as a routine investigation becomes something all the more sinister.

The story: on the capital world of Potence, young enforcer cadet Rudgard Howe is caught up in a bitter internecine feud to inherit his father's position of chief enforcer. As the tithe fleets approach, he is sent on his first mission to ensure that the planet's distant agri-facilities fulfil their quotas to the god-emperor. Farmed with serfs and managed by ex-Militarum soldiers, the agri-facilities are places of shocking brutality and hopelessness. But when he is sent to the outlying farmstead of Thorsarbour, Rudgard discovers a community where the crops are left to rot as the inhabitants indulge in the bloody ecstasy of a sanguinary cult. As Rudgard imposes the strict Lex Imperialis upon the farmstead, he begins to uncover a place where sanity is rapidly slipping. Just a single step into his nightmarish mission though, a series of cruel deaths threatens to dismantle everything he has ever known about the Imperium, his faith in the emperor and the strength of his very soul.

Should be a Warhammer Crime Novel

This felt more like a thriller or mystery style book than a horror story. It's a good book but I think it being under the Horror tagline is not accurate.

Either way. Enjoyable.

one of the best warhammer horror

was one of the better books in the warhammer horror line. I really liked the child's toy servitor bits

Amazing project!

I am not generally a horror genre fan but these WH Horror books do not disappoint! Plenty of intrigue and great voice work. Highly recommended

Loved

Not the horror I thought but still absolutely loved it, it was suspenseful and intense. Was on the edge of my seat the whole time. It definitely keeps you guessing

Very good

The 5 minute preview is misleading as it sounds like a weird version of Pinocchio. Thankfully it’s not. Even though it’s only a few hours it packs a lot in, and I highly recommend it.
