Trollslayer was AMAZING a complete surprise. Never really read any Warhammer fantasy book but it was really really well done. These were all originally short stories but since they are all following the same characters and happen after each other they hold together really well. Certain plot elements are things you may have seen before or will figure out the plot end early on, but the journey is so satisfying that you don't mind. The prose is surprisingly beautiful, and I love the core friendship between this unlikely duo.
