The Dead And The Damned
A Warhammer novel. This episodic novel (ie each chapter is a separate short story, serving to destroy the overall
unity of the plot) features Badenov's mercenaries, a generic group of hard-bitten cynical veterans who wander around having
unlikely adventures. This book embodies everything that can go wrong with a Warhammer novel. The heroes are all
indistinguishable from one another, the villains are all Hammer-horror quality, the violence is detrimentally extreme, swearing
is added as if to excite young lads with it's naughtiness and the fall of a hero to the corruption of chaos is predictable
and cliched. It isn't even as if the story overcomes the failings, as the episodic nature means that each adventure
never has chance to develop beyond 'shallow'. The sort of literary trash that gives the genre a bad name.

If you liked Green:
Then there's plenty of mindlessly violent Warhammer novels available, but you might like to try William King's Gotrek
and Felix books in particular.
