| Set 50 years in the future (so as to not interfer with the current fluff), just watch out for the gay ogre jokes!!! (so Andy Hall told me) |

From the back of the sample cover that was handed out promotionally at the Blood Bowl
Quote: Blood Bowl
He should have stuck to fighting dragons...
Welcome to a delightfully twisted fantasy world where humans, elves, goblins and ogres work out their aggressions not on the battlefield, but on the football field.
When sports agent Slick Fullbelly spots down-at-heel adventurer Dunk Hoffnung bringing down his lunch with a slingshot from a hundred paces, he's sure that his search is over. Slick works for the Bad Bay Hackers, and they need a new thrower. Dunk is about to be plunged headfirst into the fastest, meanest sport in history. Dunk puts down his sword and picks up a football...
Packed with madcap sports action, fantasy and adventure, Blood Bowl is pure gridlock carnage and insanity! |

I've thought about wanting a novel with Blood Bowl as theme and now here it is, soon at my door!!  I'll buy it for sure!
Hopefully it'll be good enough and that response is then good so they'll bring another book out (hopefully). |
