The worlds of Warhammer are unimaginably vast and fascinating to behold, which explains why there are always plenty of new stories to be told about the characters that inhabit them – from legendary warlords to forgotten soldiers. Four more books are on the way to grow the boundless expanse of Warhammer lore, starring new characters and returning favourites.
Ghazghkull Thraka: Warlord of Warlords
Serving under Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka, the prophet of the Waaagh! and mightiest Ork warlord for ten millennia, can be a hazardous affair – as the newly minted Blood Axe warboss Slitta da Stabba is finding out. The momentum of Ghazghkull’s conquests is unstoppable, and when he chooses a Blood Axe world as the site of a climactic showdown with the Black Templars, even his own Orks start to entertain thoughts of taking down the Beast of Armageddon.
Caught in a mire of treacherous allies and vengeful crusaders, Slitta will need to choose which side he’s on, and fast. Join the Orks for another hellraising adventure in Ghazghkull Thraka: Warlord of Warlords by Denny Flowers, author of Grotsnik: Da Mad Dok and many more.
The Infinite and the Divine: Illustrated and Annotated Edition
The beloved Necrons novel starring Trazyn the Infinite and Orikan the Diviner – The Infinite and the Divine by Robert Rath – is back like you’ve never seen it before, with a glorious illustrated and annotated edition. This epic tale of two Necrons holding a grudge over thousands of years is an incredible adventure with hair-raising fights, courtroom drama, and witty banter aplenty. Now cut with author insights and new illustrations, this edition offers a fresh take on the story even if you’ve read it a dozen times (like us).
Chem Dog
The Savlar Chem-Dogs are a notorious regiment of penal legion troopers who earn absolution for their misdeeds only in death – a far cry from the glorious Imperial Guardsmen that Commissar Bastun Hasp was hoping to lead. Lumped with insubordinate and unruly troops that he views as little more than mongrels, Hasp must nevertheless lead his kill team through enemy-infested terrain to secure vital intelligence. But there’s a catch, he needs them far more than they need him, and eventually he’s going to have to start trusting the Chem-Dogs if any of them are going to survive.
Chem Dog is the first full-length Black Library novel from author Callum Davis, whose short story ‘Those Without Mercy’ also stars Commissar Hasp and the penal legions of Savlar. Check it out if you want a taste of what’s to come!
Grombrindal: The Legend of the White Dwarf
Few characters that stride the Mortal Realms are as mysterious as the legendary White Dwarf – or Grombrindal, to those who know him. His exploits send him far and wide to protect the realms of Sigmar’s faithful, and many of these adventures have been serialised in the pages of the (appropriately named) White Dwarf magazine. Now, they’ve finally been collected together into one convenient tome – Grombrindal: The Legend of the White Dwarf.
All of these books will be available to pre-order soon, and if you need any more impetus to whip out your copy of Horus Rising and get back into a reading mood, make sure to swing by the Black Library Celebration week, which is just around the corner and will be detailed right here at Warhammer Community.
