Skavenslayer — William King

"Beware! Skaven!" Felix shouted. In moments, swords glittered in the half-light of the burning city. From inside the tavern a number of armoured figures spilled out into the gloom. Felix was relieved to see the massive squat figure of Gotrek among them.

"I see you found our scuttling little friends, manling," Gotrek said, running his thumb along the blade of his axe until a bright red bead of blood appeared.

"Yes", Felix gasped, struggling to get his breath back before the combat began.

"Good. Let's get killing then!"

GOTREK AND FELIX are back in Shavenslayer, the second novel in this epic saga, set in the mighty city of Nuln. Seeking to undermine the very fabric of the Empire with their arcane warp-sorcery, the skaven -- twisted Chaes 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?
