Sometimes, at least, we see justice done.

Really? Mortarion ended up on this list and The Dark City didn't?

The Dark City was probably harder to get, if my experience is anything to go by.

I discussed this in the other topic. I think a lot of people consume these via audible, and it's probably cheaper to do so anyway. The Dark City is easily available there.

 

Either way, even if that is the case or not, it's clear thar this book has been missed by the majority of people.

 

When someone complains about how the lore in the current setting is bad, but they haven't read the brilliant "Vaults of Terra Trilogy" or "Watchers of the Throne" I begin to despair lol

If it was as good as the Vaults of Terra, I would have no concerns for the future of the setting for sure.

This was sold out immediately, many people missed out yeah.

Even though I narrowly went for Sanguinius' Primarchs book, I'm happy to see Echoes take it, since it was also a fantastic read.

 

But Garro: Knight of Grey and Mortarion beating out The Great Angel is just ludicrous.

Surprised the The Vincula Insurgency didn’t feature higher. I absolutely loved this book. A fantastic addition to the ghosts series.

Not a single Warhammer Crime or Horror entry made the top 10? Well, screw you, mainstream, those books are some of the most fun to be had with BL.

Wraithstone Phoenix, Bookkeeper's Skull, Gothghul Hollow, they're all cracking reads.

 

But I guess this is also why BL/GW do so very little to push those imprints anymore.

 

...and how Garro was even allowed to be on the list, considering how recent an entry it is (and how disappointingly dull), I'll never understand.

Of the ones I read, which were very few lol, I voted for "Sigismund: The Eternal Crusader". I really liked learning more about the Templar and Dorn's right hand man from his early days in Terra to his time at the Triumph of Ullanor. I especially loved his duel with Sevatar.
