Welcome
Hello and a warm welcome to
Trollslayer, the official Bill King website.
For those of you who don't
know, Bill is an author and games designer, probably best known as the
creator of the most (or should that be, least?) successful Trollslayer
in the history of the Warhammer Universe, Gotrek Gurnisson. Currently
Bill is taking a break from his Black Library work to concentrate on his
new non-GW Terrarch trilogy, which has sold in German, Czech and
Spanish so far.
Gotrek and his
poet-companion, Felix Jaeger are the central characters in a series of 'Slayer'
novels, published by the Games Workshop literary wing, the Black
Library and the newest one, Giantslayer
is out now. It involves a trip to Albion,
an encounter with a certain High Elf Arch-mage called Teclis and an
ancient artefact of the fabled Old
Ones. And, oh yes, there may also be
some Giant-slayage in there somewhere too...
In his time, Bill has
also penned a few 40K stories based around the Space
Wolves and I am pleased to announce that everyone's favourite Space Wolf,
Ragnar is back in a brand new adventure entitled Wolfblade. This new novel
sees Ragnar pressed into the service of House Belisarius, the Navigator
House first touched upon by Bill in
his Eldar novel, Farseer
and more information on the Wolfblades themselves can be found here
in a site exclusive essay written by Bill.
We are continuously
striving to improve the site and since its launch we have added several quizzes
to test both your Slayer and Ragnar knowledge, a gallery,
a special Authorised
column which is written by Bill, and an onsite Bulletin
Board where you can indulge in some
friendly discussion and even have your questions answered by Bill
himself on a good day!
Anyway, what else can I say about the author?
Actually, I won't say anything at all - thought it would be nice to
leave it up to the man himself. Take it away Bill!
Cheers!
