Gotrek & Felix is one of the longest-running and most beloved series in Warhammer Fantasy fiction. William King created the characters and wrote the first several books, starting with Trollslayer in 1999. The series follows Gotrek Gurnisson, a Dwarf Slayer seeking an honorable death, and Felix Jaeger, the human poet who swore an oath to record Gotrek’s doom. They travel the Old World fighting trolls, skaven, vampires, dragons, and daemons.

King’s entries in the series are known for their dark humor and the odd-couple dynamic between the grim, death-seeking Gotrek and the reluctant, often terrified Felix. The early books like Trollslayer and Skavenslayer were structured as collections of linked short stories, while later entries like Giantslayer adopted a more traditional novel format. After King stepped away from the series, other authors continued it, but his original run set the tone and established the characters that fans still associate with the franchise.
