After reading Wolf Riders, I knew what to expect from Warhammer which might be why Ignorant Armies felt like a better compilation.
Although, it might just be a better compilation in any case.
I thought stories picked were pretty fun to read, and gave a really god insight into a dark, brooding world, a world full of magic and all sorts of evil that just seems to be everywhere. World I would not really want to live in.
As I kept reading something stroke a personal note, as I recognized Kislev territory being based on KievanRus, territories right next to it based on Viking lands of ages past and for some odd reason after having made that connection these stories just felt better. Message struck home.

Overall, if you're into Warhammer or enjoy a dark
fantasy, this is a good book to read.
