Ghazghkull Thraka: Prophet of the Waaagh! is a Warhammer 40,000 novel from Black Library, written by Nate Crowley. This edition (BL3310) is the deluxe hardback Illustrated & Annotated Edition, featuring new artwork and author annotations added to Crowley's acclaimed original text.

Of the billions of greenskins who swarm the galaxy, one name strikes fear into the hearts of humans and xenos alike: Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka. The Warlord of Warlords. The Beast of Armageddon. The Prophet of the Waaagh! With his tusks, fists and power claw he carries out the holy work of Gork and Mork, leaving entire worlds burning in his wake.

Mystery surrounds the true origins of this legendary beast. Rumours claim the mighty warlord was once nothing more than an ordinary ork, but how did he rise from lowly grunt to the biggest boss the galaxy has ever seen? Countless investigators have lost their minds trying to unravel the truth, but Lord Inquisitor Tytonida Falx believes she finally has the key: custody of the one creature who claims to know it all, Ghazghkull's own banner bearer, Makari the Grot.

For the first time, readers get a grot's-eye view of the inexorable rise of the greatest ork warboss since the Great Beast, told with all the chaos, violence and dark comedy that fans expect from a proper ork tale. It's a standalone story packed with action and a wickedly funny sense of humour, offering an unprecedented and deeply entertaining look at one of the most iconic characters in the Warhammer 40,000 universe.

This Illustrated & Annotated Edition presents the full novel in a beautiful hardback format, enriched with new illustrations and behind-the-scenes commentary from the author himself, making it a must-have for collectors and long-time fans of the Orks alike.
