Zombieslayer (Gotrek and Felix Series) Book

Nathan Long's swansong to the Gotrek and Felix series is a doozy. It really feels like his perpencity for shoehorning zombies and zombie like things into his other works in the series has led up to this moment where he could go wild. The story comes out of the gates running, continuing off the cliffhanger from the previous Shamanslayer forcing our heroes and the remnants of their saviors into a hasty retreat. The stakes are upped massively when it is revealed that it is non other than Heinrich Kemmler reanimating the dead. Said stakes keep getting pushed higher and higher, as all the niceties of siege warfare are turned on their head due to necromantic sorceries, saboteurs, and Kemmler's best buddy Krell come into play and throw various skeletal spanners into the works. The imagery is suitably disturbing, and Long shows that he really has a soft spot for the undead. Overall, this entry was as wonderful as it was depressing and disturbing.
