Sramaker posted:So i should avoid The Road to Dune? Aaron Allston was great. Michael Stackpole was mediocre, although some if his stuff ranged from merely ok to decent. Crispin was ok. It goes downhill from there.

The main antagonists in Baneblade are Orks, and it's a pretty decent book.

Mr.48 posted:I personally think the inquisitor looks waaaay too young. Even with rejuvinant treatments, an Inquisitors (Lord of an ordo no less) should not look and act like a 17 year old teenager. It ends up giving off a very anime vibe which I don't think suits the setting. Everything else looked amazing though. The young guy was just an inquisitor, I think. The guy in red power armor was probably the Lord Inquisitor. What the gently caress was wrong with his pistols? In a setting with handguns that fire high-explosive rockets, that thing looked like it was set permanently on "flesh wound."

Arquinsiel posted:This is the first time you've heard of PETA right? They're the animal rights equivalent of the Westboro Baptist Church and run kill houses that pretend to be shelters because pets are "tainted". Not only that, but PETA will abduct your dog off your porch so they can kill it as a "stray."

SteelMentor posted:Answer my question, what the hell do you lose from the setting by letting Marines be women. The mockery. Warhams was meant to be satire, ripping into the ridiculous slabjaw beefchest SPESS MUHRINE EMPRAH EMPRAH UNF stereotype. You add women to that, you're treating it dangerously like legitimate fiction. Admittedly, modern 40k has been drifting in that direction, so whatever.

Cythereal posted:I'm reading The First Heretic for the first time in a while, and Cyrene's character really sticks in my craw. ADB can write female characters well, Betrayer is proof of that, but most of the time he strikes me as uncomfortably skeevy. Cyrene is introduced as an alluring 17 year old prostitute with years of experience and powerful lovers and is naked under her robe. Excuse me, that’s not pedophilia, but more properly termed ephebohahaha gently caress that noise, that’s stupid.

Eisenhorn casually cuts a chaos dreadnought in half. It’s an interesting contrast to how much trouble he had fighting one CSM earlier in the series.

My favorite part of Ravenor was the elite inquisitorial team coming up against their most brutal foe, and failing: the sheer grinding horror of clerical work in the Administratum.

I haven't been this excited about a book launch since dance of dragons. And look how that turned out! Thanks to you, this is how the book is going to end now: Warboss Gurm posted:Sunset found 'im stompin' in the grass, choppin'. Every waaagh was louder than the one before, and carried farther. By the time the moon came up 'e was crumpin' lousy gits. The more 'e rocked, the more 'e waaaghed, but the more 'e waaaghed, the 'arder 'e grew, and his bloodlust sent 'im charging to the fight to crump some more gits.

Arcsquad12 posted:I don't know what some of you guys have against the Text-To-Speech series. It's certainly less dour and depressing than a lot of 40K lore material. Because it treats the source material with as much reverence and seriousness as it deserves.

Cooked Auto posted:The last 40k book I'd probably ever reread would be Ben Counter's Daemon World. The concept is sound but all I can remember of it was that the ending came out of nowhere and was a massive flub at the same time. Was that the one where the grey knight talks an abominable intelligence into converting to chaos, so that it becomes a daemon he can stab?

Dog_Meat posted:I had that omnibus and honestly forgot that story even existed. A giant mutant train appears out of nowhere and opens the doors to its fetid interior in front of the main characters. “Get in, losers, we’re doing heresy.” The main characters board the train, and it drops them off on the World of Wombs.

rocket_Magnet posted:This is an excellent way to describe that book, spot on. I stopped half way through as I got fed up with it even though guillimans thoughts & views were gripping, reading the 3rd paragraph about the new type of marine with his new type of gun and how awesome it was got really old really quick. I just tuned out every part that was an obvious advertisement for little plastic men and it was ok. Really, though, the only combat scene that even stood out was that one chaos marine trying to go prone under a repulsor tank and getting squeezed out like a tube of toothpaste.

An inquisitor who repeatedly orders an exterminatus is actually in significant jeopardy of losing his job; an LAPD officer is only in serious danger of getting a month’s paid vacation.
