![]() It was more thoughtful and considerate than I was accustomed to for a 40k novel. I’d been reading Warhammer 40,000 tie-in fiction for a short while but this was my first exposure to the Dark Angels. In any case, ANGEL EXTERMINATUS is not the place for newbies to start.Ī long, long time ago in a galaxy… here… I read ANGELS OF DARKNESS by Gav Thorpe ( Amazon). ANGEL EXTERMINATUS is also a prequel of sorts to several of Graham McNeill’s books set 10,000 years after the Horus Heresy two of my favorite 40k books: STORM OF IRON ( Amazon), DEAD SKY BLACK SUN ( Amazon) one of my least favorite: CHAPTER’S DUE ( Amazon). ANGEL EXTERMINATUS is perhaps most closely tied to the fifth book in the series, FULGRIM ( Amazon), also written by Graham McNeill. It’s been ten years since Black Library began publishing the Horus Heresy and a lot has happened since the opening trilogy. The books are penned by multiple authors, and all of the books are connected by larger events and characters but not all are necessarily sequential. The most recent Horus Heresy novel I’ve read, ANGEL EXTERMINATUS by Graham McNeill ( Amazon), is the 23rd book in a series that is currently on its 37th installment. Now I’m back with a vengeance and there is a surplus of new material to gorge on. I’m a Warhammer 40k fanboy (I have the Imperial Aquila tattooed on my chest), but I’d taken a few year hiatus from the universe. ![]() Or, more accurately, a Warhammer 30,000 reading binge as each of the five titles I’ve devoured in the past month has been set in the Horus Heresy event series. ![]() I’ve been on somewhat of a Warhammer 40,000 reading binge of late. ![]()
