Inquisitor Kravin Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 With the diversification of the Heresy across different media (hard copy, ebook, audio book and audio drama) and story length (novel, novella, short story, quick read) and the many different plot strands I'm finding it difficult to keep track of what I've got, what I've read and where it fits. Can anyone direct me to a good resource to help with this? If not I may attempt some sort of catalogue/timeline of how the stories fit together and how to obtain those you don't have.

Chaeron Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Have you seen the Black Library's own? http://www.blacklibrary.com/our-ranges-horus-heresy.html It's obviously a 'suggested' chronology, but may be useful in your quest. I think Deathfire and Cybernetica have yet to be added, so I don't know whether it is fully up to date. Would certainly be a good place to start.

Jareddm Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I prefer Sviox's timeline. It's quite overwhelming at first but it does a really good job piecing together different story arcs, as well as including all the Forgeworld Horus Heresy events. http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/293105-horus-heresy-timeline/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inquisitor Kravin Posted August 11, 2015 Author Share Posted August 11, 2015 Well that's awkward. It appears I commented on Sviox's work in June 2014, commented again months later with apparently no recognition that I had commented before. Now I start this thread. Great work Sviox.

Inquisitor Kravin Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 Started work on my own, not as good as Sviox's but the act of compiling it helps me digest it. The BL listing appears to be missing Sedition's Gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Deathfire and Cybernetica have yet to be added, so I don't know whether it is fully up to date. Would certainly be a good place to start. So after a couple of days of exhaustive searching I've expanded BL's own 110 book list to 156. Mostly this is just because I've listed short stories from anthologies like Shadows Of Treachery individual rather than as a single entry for the anthology, but I've also dug up a few that genuinely aren't on BL's list because they aren't available from BL now. The most obvious are those from The Imperial Truth and Sedition's Gate limited anthologies but some are more obscure, e.g. Luna Mendax that is buried in the BL Anthology 2013/14.

Tymell Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 My own attempt at keeping track of it: https://rateyourmusic.com/list/Tymell/the_horus_heresy_series__a_reading_guide/ I'm in the process of re-reading many of the novels (or listening to the unabridged audios, just for something different) to iron it out further, and also have a word document recording any and all references to timescales/dates within the series (including the Forge World books).
