Inferno! Volume 1 by Nate Crowley, Joshua Reynolds, Steven Fischer, Mike Brooks, David Annandale, Guy Haley, Evan Dicken, Danie Ware, Peter McLean
4.0
Inferno! Volume 1 is the first in a new series of Black Library short story anthologies. The eleven featured short stories cover Warhammer 40,000, Warhammer Age of Sigmar, Necromunda and even Warhammer Chronicles (tales from the Old World), and come from the keyboards of Black Library authors both old and new – including three never-before-seen stories from Black Library debutants (not to be confused with debutantes).
Taken as a whole this is for fans who want to read widely within Black Library, who enjoy exploring the settings and who are happy to spend time getting to know new authors and new characters. The variety of storytelling on offer is both a strength and a weakness, providing the opportunity to get a feel for lots of different characters, settings, writing styles and ideas, but at the same time lacking a clear structure for readers to get their teeth into. Accept that, however, and much like the original Inferno! magazines this offers a tremendously enjoyable window into Black Library.
