      Flight of the Eisenstein is pretty good too. But… none of the HH books have ever really grabbed me. 40k has some truly good pieces of science fiction (The Infinite and The Divine (probably the best warhammer book, I don’t even think that’s a contentious claim), Ruin/Reign, Flesh & Steel, Assassinorum: Kingmaker), but I was always kinda underwhelmed by the 30k stuff… idk what it was. Maybe the inevitability of the setting?

        Dont forget all the fun Ork/Red Gobbo books. Mike Brooks is a treasure. Definitely agree on Infinite and Divine too.

        But yeah a lot of HH is pretty meh even if youre into it.

          Oh jeeze yeah, Brutal Kunnin’ was so much fun. I still have yet to pick up most of the other Ork ones, I remember Prophet of the WAAAAGH! being another one that’s just a genuinely good piece of sci-fi. Still have yet to read the Red Gobbo books, really need to get around to that one of these days. Savoring the good fiction, I suppose…
