Post by: McKnight on June 14, 2006, 05:36:20 PM
Hey guys, im just wondering if any of you have bought "The life of Sigmar" book? and if it is worth the money?
I am really interested in the Sigmarite church and diety so i thought it would be nice to have this book  :lol:

There was a topic some time ago about this book but I don't remember the outcome, or what the name of the thread was.  And using "Life of Sigmar" for the search would probably yield 1,000,000 posts...

I think it was this thread Clarkarias was refering to:

You might want to scroll through the book reviews too.

Try the book reviews thread.

I have it and it is a small approx. 6" x 4" hardish back book.

It is a series of Sigmar's adventures, with some interspersed line drawings.
Very Sigmar only orientated.
It's an ok set of tales but it is obviously set whilst he was alive and so gives info on the various tribes pre-unification.


If you want something with more Empire background, there are reviews on "Sigmar's Heirs" in the Library.

I have it! (yay)

Its verrry small - but an interesting read nonetheless - fills in most of the gaps between major Sigmarite events and also gives alot of background into the Empire's tribal origins.

Made me all patriotic like :)
