So I finished reading the Knights of Bretonnia Omnibus. I bought it to learn more about Bretonnia and help me get a stronger desire to build and play the army (it was already there, I just wanted to enhance it).

And all I have to say is that after all that, I found myself rooting for the Beastmen, Vampires, and Wood Elves more than the Bretonnians!

So have any of you lost a desire for an army because of the Black Library?

Anyone know the order the Novels/Short stories fall in?

Picked this up over the weekend and I thought it was brilliant, the ending was superb! Anyone else read this?

Just curious as to the timeframe of this one i know its after reflection cracked and the crimson fist,but is it before the battle for calth or at the same time?

closing the thread

The more I listen to this audiodrama, the more I'm convinced the portal in the story connected to the Warhammer Fantasy universe. The description of the orcs could be the description of a WFB Orc. Anyone notice anything to either support or contradict this theory?

So it is finally out. I have not heard it yet and i will probably wait before listening to it.
Is the whole timeline **** -up fixed?

I'm thinking about giving black library a go, but I hear the quality varies, so I thought I'd ask for recommendations.

I'm a science fiction fan in general. I think some of the 40k background is interesting, and could potentially make good science fiction (but some of it is trash), and I'd like to explore the setting more.

I should say though, that I can't do bad science fiction. Whether its a film, a TV series, a comic book, or a novel, just being interested in the background, or the theme will not be enough to make me persevere if its poorly executed.

If it helps, some science fiction authors I love include: Iain M Banks, Frank Herbert, Phillip K Dick, Asimov, Ursula Le Guin, Heinlein, H P Lovecraft, Richard Morgan...

Should I try black library, and if so where should I start, and what should I avoid?

Ok guys and gals can anyone please fill me in as to the fate of Mr Zou ?

I really enjoyed the Bastion Wars trilogy but since then nowt, zilch finito. Is Mr Zou planning a comeback for W40K or is he finished, any info would be appreciated

Hi all.

I'm getting really excited about the possibility of a new Eldar codex in the near future and im looking for a book(s) to keep me going until release date.

Can anyone recommend some good books about the Eldar please? I've just finished "Masque of Vyle" which was great.

Just finished this one, can't say it was the best of the IG centred books Iv ever read but a good one none the less. Correct me if I'm wrong though but don't the Inquisition have a habit of "removing" the Guard after they have run into Chaos?

So im getting back into my only chapter I have ever known and loved :) the Black Templars!
Would like to get into their novels that BL have released over the years and was wondering what there are in the Templar saga?

So far I have compelled a list and please add to it as I am after the ENTIRE series of BT books:)

ARMAGEDDON OMNIBUS:

Sanctuary
Crusade for Armageddon
Conquest for Armageddon
The Relic
A History of the Most Honourable and Holy Solemnus Crusade

Bear in mind aswell that I am not into the Ebook stuff either, still love having a visual pages infront of me.

I was looking on Lexicanum through the Horus Heresy Series, split into different items: Novels, Novellas, Audio Dramas, and so on. Looking at it, I noticed the amount of Ultramarines material. While I am aware that the series is large, and that every Legion needs their time in the spotlight, I'm of the opinion of the amount of material done by them, and the stuff upcoming is a bit too much? I mean, in 40k, and I know this is different as it is 30k, everything is Ultramarines: the box art, the codex by Matt Ward, the movie they brought out, they had their own novel series (to be fair a lot of different chapters/legions/warbands got this, so less this I guess), and now the Heresy.

While I understand they played a part in the heresy, they weren't exactly crucial to it. I don't mind the Ultras getting a book and a few short stories in anthologies, or even showing up frequently as bit players in other books or being referenced.

The, I guess problem is the word, is that they are starring in an upcoming graphic novel (news to me, but I don't keep up to date on these things), Honour to the Dead, The Gates of Terra, Mark of Calth, Know no Fear, and Battle for the Abyss. Admitted, I have not read all of this, perhaps this is a rant, and I could be wrong/nitpicking/exaggerating what I type here, but it seems to be there has been more than enough written about them. I don't really know what willb e in the graphic novel, but did it have to be Ultramarines, in the Heresy, I mean C'mon, there's so much other stuff happening. As it stands there has been little or no mention of some Legions: Death Guard (there was flight and the Garro stuff, but nothing in too much details about the Legion, their fall, their turn, what they are diong now), or the Iron Hands (they got beat up in Fulgrim and mentioned a few times here and there), Salamanders (they do have a book coming out now, but mostly after all the above the Ultramrines got) and so on.

I could keep going on and on, but that wouldn't really help my point/argument any more, you get the idea.

Am I over reacting? Possibly. Probably. Anyone care to comment or discuss? Has Calth been battered enough yet without another story being set on it?

Simple question for those 'in the know' more then I. Is Rob Sanders doing anything further with the Excoriators? I am reading Legion of the Damned again and just really enjoy these guys, even a tie in to the Heresy would work.

First let me say that I have enjoyed the majority of the Horus Heresy books for what they are. However, I find myself losing interest in the series because it just seems to have dragged on for far too long. Anyone else share this opinion?
