The appreciation that fans have for Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar isn’t just born of their experience playing the wargames themselves. Both of these worlds are massively enriched by the Warhammer spin-off media like video games and books. While the video games do a better job of recreating the rush of a tabletop battle, if you really want to dive deep into world-building, Warhammer’s vast collection of short stories and novels is where it's at.
With over 200 books published by Game Workshop’s Black Library so far, there’s quite a lot to get through and your bill can rack up quickly if you’re adding all the fan-favorites to your basket. If you want a headstart on building your Warhammer book collection on the cheap, this $18 Warhammer book bundle from Humble is exactly what you need.
Featuring $277worth of short stories and novels from celebrated Black Library authors like Dan Abnett, Aaron Dembski-Bowden, and Chris Wraight, this bundle is the perfect combo of stylish prose, brutal battles, rich lore, and great value. The only bad news is you only have until June 27 to take advantage of it.
Should you buy the Stories from the Worlds of Warhammer bundle?
If you have your eye on this book bundle, you’re probably wondering exactly what you’ll be adding to your digital bookshelf. Well, the good news is that both 40K and Age of Sigmar fans will find their interests very well represented across the offering. Whether you’re interested in exploring Horus Heresy-era lore or following the adventures of Warhammer Fantasy fish-out-of-water Gotrek Gurnisson, there’s plenty to love here.
If you’re familiar with Humble’s bundle system, you’ll know that there are three tiered bundles to choose from, each more jam-packed with goodies than the last. So, even if you’re not willing to drop the full $18, you can instead opt for the mini 8-item bundle for $1.
