The Black Library is admittedly a purveyor of literature that would be considered pulp by those who have nothing better to do but sit about firelit studies and determine such things. Brian Craig is not a pulp writer. His works have battles yes, and at times they are exceedingly violent, but thats what Black Library is all about. The true book is a tale of realization, a study of motives and the passions that drive the forces at battle. In the Warhammer worlds Chaos is the undeniable enemy, but yet we never see things from their side. Pawns of Chaos explores the life of those who are sided with chaos and why they are not evil, and those people who serve the imperium and why they are not Just. The first reading left me a bit unsatisfied but after I began to think about the morals of the story I reread the book and was quite pleased by the tale. Be warned this is not the typical Warhammer Tale: Good party goes on quest to fight evil- battles ensue good triumphs more or less. This is so much more.
