Famous grudges of the Dwarfs April 21, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
In the same way as the previous books `The Empire at War' and `Liber Necris' this book takes a look at one of the major races of the Warhammer World, in this case the Dwarfs, from the perspective of scholars from the Old World. `Grudgelore' book details five events from the long history of the Dwarfs presented as entries from the Book of Grudges. The events detailed are Gorfang Rotgut's raid on Karak Azul, the ravages of the dragon Mordrak, the War of Vengeance, the fight against Konrad von Carstein during the War of the Vampire Counts and the fall and recapture of Karak Eight Peaks. The book also includes sidebars and appendices detailing many aspects of Dwarf life, culture and language, as well as many of the units used in Warhammer.
Most of the events and subjects detailed in this book have been described elsewhere in other Warhammer books but much of the information presented here goes into far more detail than has been previously revealed. The book has been well written, being both funny and informative. The art presented in this book is also good, as you would expect from a Games Workshop background book but again many of the pictures have been reproduced elsewhere. This book is a must read for anyone considering collecting Dwarfs in Warhammer as it gives a nice feel for the nature and history of the mountain folk.
