I enjoyed this book. I am an Empire player of the tabletop Fantasy game, so one might say I would enjoy it no matter what... but it is well written, has some nicely developed characters, and is a fun story where you are kept guessing up until the end. If you are looking for a fun Fantasy book set in the world of Warhammer Fantasy, then this is one you may want to pick up.
