Image craft,
By WoRm (British Columbia Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Grey Hunter (Space Wolf Series / Warhammer 40,000) (Mass Market Paperback)
The pictures this book paints are dynamic and form the feel of watching a film. This leads to an easy reading book that flows off the pages. Complaints about the ending are misfounded, subtle elements introduced when Ragnar gets acustomed with the Wolf Lords, come back into play when he himself is described as one. An exsellent novel for light and fun reading. Warhammer 40k Players will appreciate it only more.

William King needs to learn how to end a book,
By
This review is from: Grey Hunter (Space Wolf Series / Warhammer 40,000) (Mass Market Paperback)
The book itself was ok - I really liked the interaction between Ragnar and Sven, but damn, the ending just came up and hit you. It was like someone told him to stop the book at page 288 and when he hit it, he just ended the book. The whole premise to the story is "how did Ragnar become a wolflord without first becoming a Grey Hunter." Did he tell you this? No. There was a fairly lame plot device (like you'd see in a RPG) to get some action in, but there was little to none plot resolution at the end. I was really hoping King would improve on his endings from his Gotrek and Felix stories, but in fact, he's getting worse. If you liked the first two books, you'll probably like this one, but I cannot highly recommend it.

More insite into the Space Wolves,
By CTID82 (Kirksville, MO USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Grey Hunter (Space Wolf Series / Warhammer 40,000) (Mass Market Paperback)
I think that this was an excellent book. You learn a lot about how the Wolves are run, from the low ranking Blood Claws, to Logan Grimnar, the Great Wolf himself. I would have prefered more action though. There is a lot of developement in Ragnar's character though, and it makes me wonder how high he will climb in the Space Wolves.
