I'm planning to read up a bit on the warhammer 40k world, what books do you guys recommend?
I've never gotten in to warhammer 40k but from the little I've read, It seems very cool and since we may get a series directed by Cavil, it seems like a good time to get in to it.
I would recommend the Ciaphas Cain series. Entertaining, at times humorous, but also knows how to create drama when necessary. Plus, Cain isn't written to be some sort of super protagonist; he always wins, but it's very often due equally to good luck as to his skill or tactical cowardice.
I read the first book in Gaunt's Ghosts and remember vehemently hating it. I just don't remember exactly why, except that I found the main character unsufferable. That's not a very good review, though, so feel free to ignore my hatred.
The first gaunts book was a bit wandering... the second, Necropolis I was in absolute love of, and the couple following books I was a huge fan of until several books later, around Traitor General, when I stopped following as closely due to life and how long the series had gone...
That one was on Vervunhive right? Prob my fav book in the series, second is probably the one where they're in that fortress and spooky stuff happens
Yeah, funny that its Tanith for only so long lol, the next couple books with the Sabbat crusade, the beatty, and Blood Pact stuff were so good, and ive just been so poor about getting around to reading the post Traitor General books :/ which is mostly on me… in the grim darkness of the far future nobody you like survives long :(
