Book 32 of the series. Loved it.
so-soBook 33. Anthology of short stories. Some of the short stories were great but some of these side characters I couldn't connect with.
pickYes! I finished this junkster! And volume three was intense, very intense. At the end I almost forgot to breathe. This time it often was hard to read a Warhammer novel, since in this one the decisions made by the ruling warriors were way too close to reality. Are we heading towards a Warhammer 40K reality? As much as I'm into this universe, I do not want this to become real. But seems like we're on our way there...

pickAnother compilation of short stories which i thought were awesome. I‘ve just loved this series so far.
pickThe second book in the trilogy is just as good as the first one. The authors really managed to work together and make the story work. I didn't so much care for the combat scenes, but for everything that happens before and afterwards. The characters and their development, the philosophical topics about war, power and religion. One might be surprised, but those books do have depth and ask important questions.
#DoubleSpin @TheAromaofBooks
pickThis book is my #DoubleSpin for September, but since it's actually three books pressed into one (more than 1000 pages), I'm going to read one book each moth, each being my #DoubleSpin until November.
The first books was Horus Rising, which is also the start of the Horus Heresy series. After reading a couple of pages I already knew this book isn't for beginners in the Warhammer universe. Way to many names and strange expressions. Happily, ⬇
panTerrible book. Couldn‘t connect with a single character. Couldn‘t say how this story moves the Horus Heresy along. The only thing I can say about this book is that it makes the point that sometimes people in war die to accomplish what is ultimately forgotten and for a purpose no one can remember. Great. I just saved you hours of reading. Move onto the next book.
pickThe first encounter with the White Scars legion and it didn‘t disappoint. An interesting exploration of doing the wrong things but for what you believe to be the right reasons. Can it still be considered loyalty if it‘s misguided? And can the resulting betrayal be redeemed?
