I have finally started reading 40k novels, starting with... Apostle!

+ Lots of wacky warp woohoo stuff with equal dues paid to all 4 Ruinous Powers

+ Presents several compelling arguments against the Imperial faith

- More intriguing things happen offscreen than I would have liked

- Quite a few missed opportunities with regards to dramatic tension

You guys have any novel recommendations? I'm interested in Fantasy & AoS too!

There is an amongus hidden, somewhere. You may find it at your own peril.

God damn that art goes insanely hard keep it coming!

DapperDwarf

Gotrek and Felix for some fantasy or the Ghazkhul book for some 40K

Musicallysmug

Amongus spotted, what a cheeky carver

The Cron

I'd absolutely recommend reading The Twice Dead King duology. Its recently released as an omnibus and provides an interesting look at necron psychology. It's a pretty serious couple of books that are amazing if psychological horror (for the characters, not reader) is your kind of thing.

I personally reccomend Skarsnik. Great look into the different goblin and the orc fungal environment. Also I like how horrific and cruel this book make the orc and goblin be. They may not be as creative or deluded as chaos followers. But a kid that maliciously pull off the wings of a butterfly I still a pretty scary kid. The kid her being a goblin of course. Skarsnik himself is also pretty interesting as goblin but I won’t spoil more

As far as AOS books go, God Eater's Son and Gloomspite were winners in my book. Pun intended. For 40k, I liked Brutal Kunnin for making Ufthak both brutal and kunning

"Fren.... Do you have time to hear the word of Tomatora?"

Hado

NOOO! TORA THAT'S AN AGENT OF CHAOS! TORRAA!!!!

DGlover

I want to ask what faction you’re looking for, cause I’ve read a little of everything and got recommendations for each of them. Umm, Valedor by Guy Haley is my favorite Eldar novel. And Deathwatch, by Steve Parker, if you want Space Marines.

'Hey Fren do you have time to hear about the word of our lord and savior Small Tora God?'

I'm still working through the White Scars books, like Warhawk of Chogoris and Path of Heaven. The Infinite and the Divine, Gotrek and Felix, and Ciaphas Cain: Hero of the Imperium are the entertaining ones I want to try. The Betrayer is another, since I like World Eaters. Other people might have better recommendations, I'm only so far into the books.

For a second on my email when I saw the art I was like where's small tora!? But then small tora 😁

Tempura Person

Interesting, i do wanna get into gotrek and felix because the dynamic intrigues me

Tempura Person

We got the small tora legionaries printing out promotional t-shirts and coding the tie-in games

Tempura Person

No particular preference for faction, but i do like it when theres interesting character dynamics and banter

Tempura Person

It only takes a little while because tomatora's only words are "omg! Hi!!"

Tempura Person

Ah, another noah van ngyuen novel ive heard highly about... I'm reading elemental council now and its great so far

Tempura Person

I heard he has a cool squig fren, i simply must see

Sir Madman

My favorite 40k book is an Alpha Legion book called Shroud of Night, it really gives you a look on how the Legion operates and how the main character thinks that chaos is nothing more then warp damned lies.

The Cron

It has that and more, like a necron psychologist who thinks the main character is insane as well

Tempura Person

Yo i better check the gotrek and felix books out man

Sledgehammer

Fren, you must be wary he might like broccoli! Also the gotrek and Felix series is good fun for Warhammer fantasy

Kadmorane

Oh I can confirm the cool Squig fren Gobbla is the best

Tempura Person

Dont worry, the tall smora god is no longer canon, we made sure of it...

Cultist of Beera

why does the skull look worried? It's not like I'm gonna eat it or anything

Tempura Person

Its giving 🥺 It knows that the heretic small toramarine is precious and must be served

DGlover

Then by all means, check those out. Valedor involves characters from all walks of Eldar society, and the kill-team in Deathwatch is one of my favorites.

Bigsmile

Brutal Cunning! Fun ork shenanigans fighting the Admech tin Boyz! Prophet of da WAAAGH for an in depth look on how Ghazgkull became biggest boss and how he's in a hyper traditional relationship with Makari. And the Bloodlines novel for detective noir...... Also Gotrek and Felix if you like good books, 1st book is a collection of short stories, but it really picks up at the 2nd book. EDIT...... Ive listened and read too many of these damn books, Ciaphis Cain series.... EDIT EDIT..... Found the Amogus

Bob Bob

Pandorax is my favorite 40k book so I highly recommend it. Anything with Catachans, Grey Knights, Dark Angels, Huron, and Abaddon is automatically amazing IMO

Jaimas

Lords of the Night by Simon Spurrier has a goddamn amazing portrayal of the Night Lords.

Tempura Person

I got the omnibus on my reading list, cant wait to catch up
