Finished all four books about Eisenhorn! And I think the last one my has been my favorite. The character constellations are different and more complex and Eisenhorn isn't the almighty, all-knowing hero anymore. Rather, he's an old and broken man and I did not expect that. There are even some funny dialogs in this book. Funny? Eisenhorn? 😄

The_Book_Ninja I‘m on the last one too. I agree, reads the best 1w

⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
I'm thinking about getting into Warhammer, so I thought I'd check out the books first ☺️ I was so pleasantly surprised with what a fun and relaxing read this was. Felix (a poet) makes a drunken oath to Gotrek (a dwarf who loves a good battle) that he will write a poem about his death. It's a good old good vs evil story with some great characters, exciting battles and laugh out loud moments

Some great short stories. Very enjoyable. And the Horus Heresy arc marches on.

Really fun book. Vulkan back in the fight for Terra. I really enjoyed it.

Nope, I don't think Eisenhorn is a very charismatic or likable character (at least to me), but I still enjoyed this third book about him. Maybe I just like his taste in women? Because I really liked those. The story itself is nothing new in the Warhammer universe and therefore perfect background noise. There were some scenes that really captured me, so it's a Pick.

Lot of battles which is fun. A little weird but still good.

So, my #BookSpin is Hereticus, volume 3 of Eisenhorn's adventures. And my #DoubleSpin is a tragic story, because I wanted to order volume 8 of the Dune series, which you see displayed in this picture, but the German edition is out of stock. And no used copy far and wide. So what am I going to do about my bookshelf?! I'm in shock right now.

PuddleJumper They'll release it with a cover that doesn't match your other ones and is like 2 inches taller 5mo
TheAromaofBooks Ack, that is the worst!!! 5mo
Jari-chan @PuddleJumper Right now I would be happy if there would be a new release. Even if I had to deal with the 2 inches... 😞 5mo
Jari-chan @TheAromaofBooks It is!! If I could get a secondhand copy, that would be perfect. But not even that is possible right now 😭 5mo

This audiobook was more background noise for me, while I was doing this and that. The story got more interesting after the 50% mark, so the plot maybe just needed some time to speed up. I for myself would've loved to spend more time with the female characters, because to me they seemed more interesting than Eisenhorn. I'm still curious about what's going to happen to him next.

Just as with my other Omnibus volume, I'm going to split this one up. For my #DoubleSpin I've read the first story, and have to say, even though it's interesting and makes me curious about the books, without the first volume of the series, it would leave me unsatisfied. Planning to read the next part in April.

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 9mo
