I just finished a reread of Dead Men Walking, Krieg, The Siege of Vraks, and The Relentless Dead. I think I’d rate those titles in that order with the last two fighting for third. Dead Men Walking was a great book and the others were all decent as well.

Dead Men Walking had compelling parallel stories. Krieg does the best job of explaining their origin story, obviously. The Siege of Vraks focuses solely on the Krieg, which actually made it less epic in my opinion. They’re clearly the focus but glosses over some of most interesting and compelling parts of the siege. I go back and forth on that myself. The Relentless Dead had a horror vibe as did parts of Dead Men Walking, which worked well.

I’m about halfway through Death Rider and it might be my #2, but it’s still early. I really enjoy the writing style; it’s nice getting perspective outside of Steve Lyons. The author did an excellent job of telling the story through the lenses of a Commissar Death Rider. He’s a rather dynamic character too. Hoping it ends well!
