Blood of Aenarion
THE STORY
The twins Tyrion and Teclis are the greatest high elf heroes still to walk the earth. They are as different to one another as darkness and light.
Tyrion is an unparalleled swordsman, a superlative warrior and tactician from birth. He inspires courage and loyalty in those around him. Champion of the Everqueen, he is Ulthuan’s greatest protector.
Teclis’s gift is magic. The greatest natural sorcerer of the age, his power rivals that of fabled Caledor. Wise councillor of the high elves, Teclis was amongst those who first taught magic to the race of men and gave them the means to defend themselves against Chaos.
From their humble origin in the wild lands of Chrace, Tyrion and Teclis were meant for a great destiny. They come from the line of Aenarion, the first king of Ulthuan and cursed champion of that magical island.
When the Witch King Malekith learns of the twins’ existence their lives are imperilled and they are taken to Lothern for their protection and to learn the arts of war.

Bill King
Rated 5 out of 5 by Matt Black
Bill King for me is by far the best warhammer fantasy author. Day one purchase
Return of the King
Rated 4 out of 5 by Robert
One of Black Library's first superstars makes a triumphant return in this telling of the early days of Games Workshop's first special characters, Tyrion and Teclis. William King again demonstrates his deep understanding of the Warhammer world as he delves, not only into the twin's history, but into the mindset of the High Elves (and a shade into the Druchii). A special treat opens the novel as we see the creation of the elven Vortex through the eyes of Aenarion himself. The one downside of the novel is that it could use a bit more action, with most fighting being only glossed over.
Great Read!
Rated 5 out of 5 by Wayne
I received the book as a Christmas gift and being my first Fantasy novel I didn't know what to expect. Not only was it a fast easy read I have a new found fondness for the High Elves. King is a great writer and I'm ready for the next book....also I will be starting my first Fantasy Army based around Teclis and Tyrion!!!
