Gotrek and Felix: unsung heroes of the Empire or nothing more than common thieves and murderers? The truth perhaps lies somewhere in between and depends entirely upon whom you ask. Seeking to undermine the very fabric of the Empire with their arcane warp-sorcery, the skaven, twisted Chaos rat-men, are at large in the reeking sewers beneath the city. Led by Grey Seer Thanquol, the servants of the Horned Rat are determined to overthrow this bastion of humanity. Against such forces, what possible threat can just two hard-bitten adventurers pose?

There are many secrets in the dark places of the Old World. From the cities of the Empire, where men huddle together in defiance of the darkness that sweeps across the land, to the vast, savage forests that house all manner of terrible beasts, everywhere you look there is a dark tale or ancient legend waiting to be unearthed. For the vampire Genevieve Dieudonné, several of these ancient horrors and blood-soaked nightmares are about to come to light, as she is plunged into battles for her life and her very soul across three linked novellas.

Publisher's Summary
A Gotrek Gurnisson novel.
When Felix Jaeger, a student, poet and minor political agitator, swears a drunken oath to a half-mad dwarf, it changes his life. Adventure awaits, as Felix records the mighty deeds of Gotrek Gurnisson, Trollslayer.
Listen to It Because: This collection of stories is where the saga of Gotrek began. Mutants in the forest, goblins in the mountains, a troll beneath the world - from these small beginnings came the greatest partnership in the Old World and a hero who has crossed realities and become a legend.
The Story: Gotrek and Felix: unsung heroes of the Empire or nothing more than common thieves and murderers? The truth perhaps lies somewhere in between and depends entirely upon whom you ask....
After fleeing the authorities in the Imperial city of Altdorf, Felix Jaeger swears a drunken oath to dour dwarf Gotrek Gurnisson to record his death saga. In the cold light of day, Felix's worst fears are confirmed as he learns that Gotrek is a Trollslayer - a dwarf doomed to seek out a heroic death in battle to atone for an unknown personal disgrace. Their travels throw them into a string of extraordinary adventures as Felix tries to survive his companion's destiny.
Written by William King. Narrated by Jonathan Keeble.

The start of Black Library's greatest series
A lot of the reviews I have seen shirk away from giving Trollslayer a 5 out of 5 because it is an 'episodic' story. Ordinarily that just means 'this is a short story collection masquerading as a novel' (much like 'Ghostmaker' of the Gaunt's Ghost's series). Trollslayer is certainly not a short story collection.
What this 'episodic' story is, is a masterpiece of grim, dark, oppressive fantasy fiction. Yes, some of the chapters are complete stories or mini-adventures in their own rights, but they are all a part of a much larger narrative within the book rather than just each chapter broken up by 'oh, this reminds of me of the time ...' Again ... I'm looking at the shoddy links in the Gaunt's Ghost series.
William King has, in this one book, achieved what many writers for the Black Library never actually achieve. They say they write grimdark fiction and they try to get that across with excessive gore and violence, but King gets that point across with beautiful writing, incredible scene-setting skills and the raw talent for not only writing, but creating, atmosphere.
Trollslayer has long been thought of a great entry point into the Warhammer Fantasy series and it wasn't until I re-read it that I see why. In this novel they introduce you, if not in person, but in description, to many of the factions within the Warhammer Universe and the delicate balance upon which most relations between factions hang.
Not only is this the novel to kickstart your Warhammer Fantasy adventure, it's the start of the series that will form one heck of a solid back bone as to any reader's understanding of the Warhammer Fantasy universe. Things like this are the main reason why Age of Sigmar will never reach the beautifully crafted levels that the Old World reached. There is nothing that wraps its arms around you and welcomes you to the world in that setting, there is only confusion.
I kind of went off-track there ... but reading a book set in the Old World just angers me that Age of Sigmar exists. Anyway, back to Trollslayer.
King creates very believable and enjoyable characters throughout, even those that feature as background noise to the main setting have the feel of men, women and children that you would expect to see in a fantasy world of this sort and it makes the whole reading experience easier.
The speech, a notoriously difficult part of any novel-writing experience, is wonderful and the banter between characters is not only easy and free-flowing, but believable and realistic. There are no pitfalls where the author just decides to throw in unrealistic/unhuman-like conversation solely to pad out the word count, nor is there the awkward 'character randomly explains plot by guessing stuff out loud to his companion' that is often a frustrating aspect of some fantasy novels I have come across in my time.
The long and the short of this review is: Not only is this a well-crafted and wonderfully written novel, it's one where everything just fits perfectly.
Having both listened and read Trollslayer, I can say that, for my money, the audio is a lot better (not an easy feat considering how much I enjoyed reading it). Jonathan Keeble is an absolute genius when it comes to fantasy narrating and I'll certainly be seeking out more books read by him, especially in this series. His voice work just makes this novel such an immersive and addictive experience. It's rare I wish for a novel to be twice as long as it was, but in this case I wish it were ten times as long.

Fantastic... Original awesome warhammer
These stories are just fantastic.
Lots of great battle action but the real strength are the characters and the great relationship between a dwarven warrior looking for the perfect death and the bard tasked by blood oath to tell the tale.
Undead warriors. Trolls. Orcs. Mutant cultists. What more do you want?
These stories are also 'grimdark' written over a decade before it was a thing. The best of that genre could learn a lot here.
Jonathan keeble does a great performance too. Similar to how I always had the characters in my head (which I must admit if a actor doesn't, admit often puts me off an audio book)
Hopefully audible will be adding the sequels as soon a possible!!

I been telling myself I will get around to reading all of the Gotrex and Felix stories for almost 30 years but thank to audible I've finally found a way to fit it in. This compendium of short stories is well worth a listen. Maybe an understanding of the Warhammer fantasy background will be helpful, but it's not essential.

Classic Gotrek & Felix
William King wrote some fantastic fiction for the Black Library back in the day. The 'Slayer' series of novels are some of the most fun reads that the Black Library has ever published. Trollslayer is an absolute must for any Warhammer Fantasy fan.
This is true grim dark Warhammer Fantasy set in the Old World. This is real Warhammer; not the absolute garbage known as 'Age of Sigmar'.

Brilliant! And the rest please :)
The books are amazing but to hear the first book Narrated by Jonathan Keeble was just as good!
Cannot wait to get the rest of the series if it’s released.

Rollicking fun adventure fantasy - give it a go.
I read this series of novels when they were first released many years ago. It’s been awesome to listen to this time around.
This volume features a series of rollicking challenges for our two heroes. They’re interlinked short stories.
Set in the dark fantasy universe of the tabletop wargame, Warhammer Fantasy Battle, the author creates heaps of action, horror, humour and thoughtful insights into the human condition. This makes the novels very open for a broad audience that may be interested in fantasy lit or adventure stories.
The target audience is definitely young adults on more the geeky side but books are so good they’re worth giving a go as quality bubble gum for fantasy fiction fans. Give it a go.
The narrator is superb and brings the Gotrek and Felix alive and convincing. No surprise as he also narrated the fantastic Under the Eagles series.
Thanks

Great read. highly recommended
The stories were well told and highly entertaining. This book gives the reader some great insight into the Warhammer Old World delving deeply into the inner workings of the empire.
The characters Gotrek and Felix are well written and relatable providing a real sense of humanity present in both of them.
Definitely give this a go if youre interested in the Old World, or just a fan or fantasy in general.

Classic Warhammer Fantasy
fantastic listen. Getting the second book. I really hope GW makes more audiobooks from the fantasy catalogue.
