Hey /lit/
I'm a huge sucker for the warhammer universe, especially chaos and the Empire.
Any good novels or anything else I could read? Would love a tale about a witch hunter coming to a small village, infested by a chaos cult or something like that.
Also, what do you think of the warhammer universe when it comes to fantasy universes?

Pic unrelated btw.

Reason I'm asking is because I don't want to read a novel if everyone says its shit. And I will more than likely have to pay for it, which would be a waste if it's written by a games workshop intern.
Try asking in the sf/f thread as well
Have you ever heard of Jack Vance? I'd recommend his Dying Earth series.

It's a lot more fun to read about the universe on a wiki than to slog through novel of grimdark prose.
Ever read Sabriel? It's young adult fantasy novel about a "witch hunter" of sorts fighting against a chaos cult.

Haven't heard about any of these..
But is it really true that the lore is only good in small amounts, and that the actual novels are shit?
But I'm googling both of your recommendations now, thanks.

Might post in there, just thought /lit/ would have many opinions about warhammer. Good and bad ones.

I'm mostly a 40k fan and could recommend those and not fantasy, but yes. Most novels are absolute unreadable garbage. Lore is more often than not superior to novels.

Oh well.. Guess I shouldn't expect a good small story about a witch hunter eradicating chaos in peasant villages.

I have been trying to remember who this artist was for MONTHS. You have no idea how much joy you have brought to me OP. Thank you.
I'm sorry that I can not help you search for your Warhammer books as I do not read pleb shit.

What's wrong with weird!
Listen: The world is only decades away from the extinguishing of the sun. Technology is so old it has passed into myth and only remains as an obscure form of magic, which is also waning. It's strange, brooding AND fantastical!
Gotta expand your horizons man.

You're not a huge sucker, you're a huge cocksucker
