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.... Once companions on the greatest of adventures, Gotrek and Felix have long since gone their separate ways. Felix, married and settled, secretly craves the excitement of his youth. And when the opportunity arises, Felix embarks upon what might be his final journey. As the chaos of the End Times engulfs Kislev, Gotrek and Felix are reunited, battling the hordes of the Troll King alongside Ulrika, Snorri and Max.

A bastardisation of the whole series
Reviewed: 20-06-24
This is the worst so far of the post King G&F series. It's like the writer hadn't even read the previous books. Gotrek is written and some toxic hateful wretch rather than the desperate and hard Doom desperate Slayer he's been built up to be. He's also described as smaller than several dwarfs including Snori when previous writing have himswelled with power from his god weapon. The whole listen was a struggle intermittently puncture by the horrible pronunciation of PRAAAAAG! by the narrator. Only worth listening to if you're desperate to complete the series like myself.

Story
Baggit is the fast-talking ratling with an eye for the big score. Clodde is the ogryn with a heart of gold and a head full of dreams. These abhuman deserters-turned-criminals operating in the city of Varangantua have crossed the wrong man for the last time—and now they’re on the run. At least, that is, until Baggit learns of a score that could pay their debts and save their skins—the Wraithbone Phoenix, a fabled treasure rumoured to be hidden aboard a voidship recently scheduled for decommission. But Baggit and Clodde aren’t the only ones with eyes on the prize.

Fantastic Fun

A much more grounded adventure by a couple of very fun and relatable characters; whilst still being very 40k!

Story
Baggit is a fast-talking ratling sniper with a greedy eye and loose morals. Clodde is an ogryn, a brute with a core of decency and a desire for a better life. Two abhuman deserters turned thieves, at large in the monolithic city of Varangantua, where only the tough or the ruthless survive. Having landed in debt to a savage crime lord, Baggit and Clodde end up in the crosshairs of the meanest, most puritanical sanctioner in the city.

Very well done and an enjoyable listen. Very classic British gangster vibes. little on the short side for the price though.

Great entertaining story. The narrator does a great range of voices and accents, though some are comically off for the mental image of the ork.

A superb production of a sci fi classic!

partial voice acting
Reviewed: 03-05-19
although unabridged only the abridged sections are voice acted. This can be very off putting as it changes mid encounter. Notably the barons and counts voice actors differ dramatically from the narrator and is switched mid way through one of their scenes.
