In need of new books
I have red a few BL books and want to buy more but i don't know which ones i should buy

Malakith,Shadow king,The entire Word Bearers serie,The first heretic,The malus darkblade books,Horus rising.

Fair enough to be honest, if you didnt really enjoy those then the rest isnt gonna greab you attention!
Tis a shame though!

I roll to disbelieve.I have only red two books of it and i was strugeling to get trough Horus rising and The first heretic was medium quality at best.
Hey you've got a fanboy on here already so you have to accept that someone else ain't a fan :grin:I roll to disbelieve.
Ah, naw, you misunderstand. I'm not saying it's impossible he didn't like The First Heretic, and somehow got it weeks ahead of the release date in the Netherlands. Of course that's possible.Hey you've got a fanboy on here already so you have to accept that someone else ain't a fan :grin:
But to dislike Horus Rising?
That is the claim of a madman. As evidenced by the disbelief several others have also already shown.
Even Dan-The Living God-Abnett isn't universally liked, personally I don't think Horus Rising was his finest hour either...it was obviously Sabbat Martyr which is without doubt the best BL book.Ah, naw, you misunderstand.

After seeing how many people like Battle for the Abyss the fact that we have someone on the opposite end of the HH appreciation scale doesn't surprise me.

Pistols at dawn, sir.
Pistols at dawn.
For shame, Pistols are a coward's weapon, Sabre or Rapier- those are the arms of a true Gentleman!

The best novel BL ever published is Legion, closely followed by Armour of Contempt and Ravenor Rogue.
Further disagreement will result in me crying.
Legion is possibly the best HH novel I've read to date, so I will allow some latitude for that claim and Armour of Contempt is a fine novel truly in keeping with the Gaunts Ghosts standard but it is still no Sabbat Martyr (Corbec for the sweet balls of baby jesus!).
Ravenor Rogue is another fine novel I, again, begrudgingly admit that but I'm terribly sorry, and I hope you have a box of tissues ready, SM is untouchable except possibly by His Last Command.

You both are wrong. Best BL novel is Titanicus though I must agree with you that Legion is awesome. It is easly one of the best HH novels. But that aside how can somebody like Battle for the Abyss?
LOL, DBC and Baron Spikey amuse me.:drinks:
....LET THE MADNESS BEGIN!. Battle for the Abyss is BL's finest piece, C.S Goto is BL's best writer, Dark Eldar are kind and caring, Orks are intelligent and the Chaos Gods victory is not inevitable!.I have only read two books of it and I was struggling to get through Horus Rising and The First Heretic was medium quality at best.
MADNESS!
Yeah thats me :wink:Hey you've got a fanboy on here already so you have to accept that someone else ain't a fan :grin:
Or just get Lightning Claws and Power Fists and go nuts, thats what i'd do.For shame, Pistols are a coward's weapon, Sabre or Rapier- those are the arms of a true Gentleman!
The best HH novel ive read is The First Heretic followed closely by A Thousand Sons, after that its a tie between Dark Disciple and Soul Hunter for my favourites.Legion is possibly the best HH novel I've read to date, so I will allow some latitude for that claim and Armour of Contempt is a fine novel truly in keeping with the Gaunts Ghosts standard but it is still no Sabbat Martyr (Corbec for the sweet balls of baby jesus!).

Colm Corbec is cool, but Lijah Cuu is cooler, sure as sure.
Still shocking though.Even Dan-The Living God-Abnett isn't universally liked, personally I don't think Horus Rising was his finest hour either...it was obviously Sabbat Martyr which is without doubt the best BL book.

But neither of those are his finest moment for me. For me Abnett's best book is Malleus then Xenos. Abnett's Inquisitors are the best.
The Bequin Trilogy is in the future, and if Cherubael doesn't return with his witty gruesome banter and longing for Eisenhorn's painful death then im going to go insane!
I don't think anyone thought differently.Yeah thats me :wink:
I find myself in agreement with you once again.The best novel BL ever published is Legion.
ADB's fanboy and proud of it..I don't think anyone thought differently.
I should put that under my name, once I find out how.

One good book is storm of iron by Graham McNiellAs you might have noticed i prevere books with the 'evil' guys as main characters.
any sugestions are welcome.
Im getting into Eisenhorn and Ravenor novels next as Ive heard so much about them! Horus Rising is good but not the greatest IMO!Bring whatever you want. I'll have paid one of the crowd to hurl a throwing axe into your back the second you pull steel.

But then again, I dotn compare HH-novels with 40k-novels as they are completely different legues! Its like comparing football with a apple and expect results. :biggrin:Ok maybe not that drastic. But I mean they take place in different times and different themes are used. Favorit HH = Fulgrim. Favorite 40k is more difficult, so we have to break them down in categories as well (which army/race is used as the maincharacter, what series it is and stuff like that), and I bet you dont wanna read about that shite.
