I am a big fan of Gotrek and Felix, William King did an amazing job with the first 7 or so books bringing these characters to life. When nathan long took over i was a little skeptical, i really don't like author changes i do enjoy how one tell's stories about their own creations. I must say though i was fairly impressed it wasn't the same but it was gotrek and felix. I have purchased every book written about them, although i don't buy the short stories, maybe some day i'll take a look.
This new author took over writting, a guy named josh reynolds, he did Road of skulls, it was a decent book but i could feel the character slipping away from gotrek and felix(it really is a decent read though). I have just started, City of the damned, by David Guymer...To say i'm disappointed in the first 30 pages would be an understatement.
Gotrek has hiden in a hole and asked the manling to help cause a distraction so he can stop hiding in the hole....
The next one was Gotrek got knocked over by a half a corpse being thrown at him... he defeated a bloodthirster!!! Some emaciated corpse can't knock Gotrek over!
When did Gotrek start wearing shoes? He takes his boots off and starts whining about how his feet are sore from the road..... WHEN DID GOTREK EVER COMPLAIN ABOUT STUFF LIKE SORE FEET??!!?
Does anyone else read these books and has read city of the damned? I must say it's very disappointing... and to top it off josh reynolds is coming out with another book in april of 2014....
Has GW decided to kill everyting that made their company awesome and just go the mass production route to make stacks of cash???? I do not recommend this book to anyone... i have not finished it yet... i'm not sure if i plan too either.

Hi!
I'm right there with you. I have read Gotrek and Felix since the first books came out. The recent stuff is terrible. I won't touch another one by that author.
