The only one i have heard of is horus heresy and going by one poster he said it was the best sci fi book hes read let alone WH40K. Everyone else agree, and als what else is there to read?

HH is one long series, GG is several story arcs.

HH is progressing at a pretty steady rate (2 books a year)

Which one should i read first?

My copy of Horus Rising came today, only managed to finish reading chapter 2. So far this book is brilliant, i know ive hardly read anything but this is something special

Almost finished Horus Rising, only about 90 pages to go. This is a seriously awesome book, even if you dont like WH40K this book will have you wanting more.

If I were to start reading these, what order would I get them ?

Space Marine / Terminator books are the ones that I would read.

Horus Heresy is the first one i read and i love it, its seriously awesome

bakes0310 · 6 Jan 2011 at 15:42

About a 120 pages away from finishing Galaxy In Flames, ive ordered the next one, ive just never been hooked on books before this is great.

bakes0310 · 21 Feb 2011 at 17:33

Im nearing the end (100 pages left) of book 4 The Flight Of The Einstein. I have book 5 Fulgrim on its way.
Still amazing series so far, and i dont think theres been a weak book yet. My favourite one has to be the first one so far Horus Rising.

bakes0310 · 23 Feb 2011 at 13:37

Finished The Flight Of The Einstein lastnight, really enjoyed it.
Postman didnt bring Book 5 Fulgrim so hopefully it will be here tomorrow.

Also you can preorder the latest book named Age Of Darkness, which is out May 12th. Ill probably be only on book 7 by then
