I loved the book, but I was a little disappointed about the ending. :( I really wanted to know what happened.

The best yet! Another great story by Will. King. It just makes you want to howl with excitement!

Absolutely fantastic.  It totally captures the idea of the Feral nature that is part and parcel of the Space Wolves, and yet also shows the Wolves' ability to dice in the ways of political intrigue with as much ease as the noble houses of a Hive World.  The combats are excellently written, and every part of the book kept me hanging on for the next chapter.  I cannot wait for the next one.

"Grey Hunter" is a story of leadership; where Space Wolf and Ragnar's Claw are tales of initiation and adventure respectively, the third volume reveals that Ragnar is indeed our beloved Wolf Lord Blackmane, and we watch as he learns what will be required of him not just as a warrior, but as a leader, forced to take risks and make sacrifices along the way.  Bill King seems much more at home with writing a full-length Space Marine story; Ragnar is led through a refreshing balance between furious combat and thoughtful contemplation.  The series gets better and better with each entry!

Awesome book...it was a good read and had lots of action and suspense. The thing that made me mad was how it ended so swiftly, not knowing what the great wolf will do to ragnar. I hope more of the series come out!

Grey Hunter is full of in-depth action, great descriptions, dialogue, plot, I definitely loved the various writing techniques that digs bone-deep into your nerves. Grey Hunter is grim, gory, pumped up with a blood boiling action that seems to captivate movie-like sequences. Hakon is great, Sven seems horrendously unstoppable, he is the best, so is Ragnar, valiant black-maned wolf warrior of the Space Wolves chapter. Grey Hunter's left me with an unresolved anticipation for Wolfblade (4th Ragnar Blackmane title).

I give 9/10 for it, absolutely a must-buy novel, William King shows his skills.

I would just like to say that i think this book is the best of the three books so far. What can i say, the combination of sven's filthy tongue and action makes for a very exciting book. I must say that if Bill King Kills off Sven then i will be severely peeved. anyways, i look forward to the next exciting chapter

From a perspective you can trust!!!!

Alright lets get straight to the point,... if your a Space Wolf Fan/player or have ANY inclination of good thoughts toward this series of books, THEN THIS BOOK IS A MUST READ!!!!

Put down that bolter and strap yourself in as this smells of a begining of a mighty epic!!!! You've grown with Ragnar through Space Wolf, you've tested your mettle in Ragnar's Claw, NOW things kick into high gear with Grey Hunter!!

THE ANSWER YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!! Or heck,.. a darn good read as it seems just to keep getting better.

I had to break my high mark here so here it goes,... gonna give this one FIVE howls as King gave me a swift kick to the solar plexus. Leaving me wanting for more.  GRRRRRRRRR

I thought the entire novel was great. Couldn't put it down. When is the next Space Wolves novel coming out. I can wait for it. Hurry I'm on pins and needles. Can't wait to see how Ragnar reclaims the spear for the Chapter. Sven will be mad he couldn't go.

As the others have said, this is the best book of the series. The plot is much tighter and the story flows well. Blended with the faster pace, we also see more detail on how the Chapter goes to war, including the internal politics between the great companies.

We also get a re-appearance of my favorite character in the series (near the end). Now the field is set, lets see what the future holds for Blackmane.

This is easily the best Warhammer 40K book King has ever written, and is, IMHO, only bettered by Dan Abnett's Eisenhorn books in Black Library's 40K line.

The writing is crisp, the action is fast and furious and the dialogue taut and occassionally funny. The battle scenes are epic, the Space Wolves are everything genetically enhanced super-soldiers are supposed to be.

8/10

Gonzales review was very helpful wasn't it! (not!)

Actually I liked Grey Hunter more than I liked Ragnar's Claw and I liked that more than Space Wolf.
