            Dan Abnett’s Gaunt’s Ghosts is a good series too, as is both Eisenhorn and Ravenor (I never read the third part because it came out after I’d stopped keeping up with 40K, but I assume it’s just as good).

              Oh yeah I wanna get to some of these classics later on. I just started reading stuff that I was really into like the Ork books from Mike Brooks. Im currently reading the Nightlord Omnibus since that had a lot of positive buzz and Chaos is like my 2nd fave thing after Orks.

              I do like the Imperial side of things especially Mechanicus and Sisters but I basically just got back into reading last year and I have been busy with other books as well.

              On a different note I did enjoy Bloodlines quite a bit its basically a 40k book on a hiveworld that follows a detective working a missing person case (JUST IN 40k) gives a ton of insight in the daily lives of hive worlders which is nice. Bloodlines takes a much closer look at the civilian life in 40k . Feels also super noir, was fun to listen to jazz while reading it. Theres a bunch of newer 40k books that follow a similar footpath. Its basically detective stories in the 40k universe.
