Synopsis

The End Times are coming. In the warrens of Skavenblight, a new power is rising - the verminlords walk the earth and plan to lead the skaven to their destiny as rulers of the world. But for Queek Headtaker, the only destiny that matters is his own, as he plans his final assault on Karak Eight Peaks. In the depths of that ancient city, two rival kings - the goblin Skarsnik and the dwarf Belegar - prepare to meet the onslaught, while in Karaz-a-Karak, High King Thorgrim Grudgebearer presides over what he knows in his heart is the end of the dwarf empire. The Horned Rat rises, and nothing will ever be the same.
