Rats, Rats, Thank the gods that it's rats,
because luck is a strumpet and life is a curse
and if it wasn't for rats it would be something worse.

[Maximilian Surjadi · Rating 4 out of 5]

It was an interesting read. It didn't give much new information, except for the legend of skaven birth. WHich I found very interesting.

I kinda hope it could give more lore on skaven's wonders, like tha Black Ark, Screaming Bell, Doomwheel, etc.
