Awesome. Thanks guys.

Nagash is love.
Nagash is life. (Or death rather.)

Gaunts ghosts is great; as are any Eldar centric novels.

Space Marines are so over the top it isn't even funny. Especially Grey Knights and Wolves.

If you like Warhammer Fantasy and elves, try Guardians of the Forest, Defenders of Ulthuan and its sequel, Sons of Ellyrion (I've only read the first two); Guardians is amazing. There are also the Gotrek and Felix books by William King, but - and this is just me - the way it's written kinda throws me off.

Also, going by the Black Library website, it looks like Games Workshop is closing out the Warhammer Fantasy series by introducing the End Times arc. Does anyone know if the story will continue afterwards?

Didn't we already have the End Times with Archaon? If I remember correctly nu-Sigmar died, the Orcs won, everyone agreed it was a bloody good fight and life went back to normal (i.e. Chaos and death everywhere).

The Soul Hunter series is amazing. The Night Lords are the most badass legion to exist.


Space Wolf isn't bad either. Both of those are definitely worth checking out. The Horus Heresy series, too, as others have said.

Storm of Chaos and Archeon was defeated by Valten- Sigmar Reborn.

'twas Grimgor Ironhide who put down the foul Lord of the End-Times.

Skaven killed Valten after the fact.

Wasnt much of a lord of the end times.

Idk, Sigmar was pretty strong too.

Would recommend the Sigmar trilogy .

I don't like it, completely shatters my illusion that Sigmar was the 2nd or 11th Primarch :-(

Lol , i liked that idea too.

But alas both are dead and only the Emperor knows why.

The Emperor and goodness knows how many others who keep dropping infuriating hints that we know will never, ever be confirmed.

Grabbed everything from Gaunt's Ghosts, so I should be engaged for a good amount of time.

I read a couple but Imperial Guard didnt really interest me, did love the Commissar Cain series.

I can see an Ork series being a lighthearted, over-the-top action thriller featuring liberal use of sunglasses, 'Xplosions, motorcycles, reckless driving, vehicle collisions, brawling, insane combat maneuvers, and... Orks jumping out of dropships several thousand feet above the ground [Without parachutes]; drinking beer while they fall and determinstic roars louder than Mel Gibson, screaming "Waaagh!!!"
