Games Workshop and Black Library this week announced that they would be working with Cavan Scott and Tom Huddleston on a range of books, Warhammer Adventures, designed to introduce younger readers and gamers into the world of Age Of Sigmar and Warhammer 40,000.

Warhammer Adventures Book - Games Workshop

The first two titles will be City Of Lifestone and the Attack Of The Necron, focused on young adventurers making their way through these worlds on their own adventures whilst the rest of the world goes on around them.

There has of course been a massive backlash against these, but also resounding support as well. I think personally any chance to tell a new and interesting story within these worlds is worth exploring. Both the authors have also talked about their aims on Twitter and they seem very much on the side of accepting the worlds as they are, but being able to put their own unique spin on things.

I generally believe that if you're a parent with young kids who love these games, then why not give them a wider window into the narrative. They are going to be more encouraged to read if they love the subject...so let's see where these go before we judge them.

What are your thoughts?
