Unremembered Empire

Like I said, in my opinion. My opinion is only mine. It does not speak for anyone else and what it says does not make anything fact.

 

I'm aware of that. I'd be delighted if Vulkan Lives turned out to be a cracking good novel. I'm just pessimistic based on the authour's track record

I like the cover. The primarchs are finally big enough for us to see emotion in their faces other than the usual generic grimace of martial rage or Fulgrim's trademark smirk. I think it actually helps to sort of further the story. The shading and highlighting seems a little weird too. Especially the big dark blot right between Sanguinius and Guilliman. Looks pretty...like the sun is setting...on the imperium. Or maybe it's just shadows from all those ships parading by overhead. In any case I think the size and scope of everything is just right for 40K. Let everything be larger than life.

 

Could be worse. Could be Matt Ward. Or Gav Thorpe. Or C.S. Goto. At least(in my opinion) Nick Kyme and James Swallow seem to be hit and miss.

Never liked anything by James Swallow. He managed to make the Blood Angels, potentially one of the most interesting legions/chapters, bland and boring. I couldn't finish Nemesis or Flight of the Eisenstein.

 

Nick Kyme...I like Fall of Damnos, everything else he's written has been a miss. Promethean Sun, The Core, and his Salamander books are absolutely awful. Promethean Sun is especially lame...Jurassic Park/DinoRiders vs. Astartes. Bland, uninspired prose...no interesting characters, juvenile action, just terrible

Agree - I literally fell asleep when reading FtoT + he made Sanguinius look like a grand goody Mary Sue....Nick Kyme is  so, so.....I really liked Vulkan lives....

I've done the test like ten more times.....got Rogal Dorn ten more times

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the Emperor might be trying to tell me something.....

He's telling you to eat a Snickers. Because when you're hungry, you act like a heartless PITA. But when you're better, you look like this
