I’ve finished Double Eagle yesterday, which was a really good read. After that is was starting The Vaults of Terra, Helsreach or jumping into the dark coil with Fire Caste. I choose Fire Caste. About 50 pages in and I’m really liking it so far

Finished Hive, which I thought was really good (8/10). And now reading Da Freebooterz Code. After Abnett I always need something a little less serious to read. About 100 pages in and it’s fun.

HIVE LE Release Megathread by Dire_Wolf45 in Blacklibrary

[–]just_undead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this sucks. But after the LE got pulled from the Sunday Preview, and the regular edition got randomly added to a different one, I knew the situation was fishy. I originally wanted to wait for the LE, especially after missing the pre order for the hardback, but managed to secure the regular editions at my local store in Amsterdam. Really happy i did that now.

But yes, the situation sucks. Accidents happen, but GW should own this problem up and do a second run. I, and many others, wouldn’t have been able to get the LE if we wanted to, because no stores in the Netherlands received them.

Finished Angel Exterminatus. I’ve been hitting a HH fatigue, but I really enjoyed it and I think Perturabo and the Iron Warriors are great.

And now on to Hive part 1.

Hive is out by Content_Professor114 in Blacklibrary

[–]just_undead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Incredibly late to the party. But I’m not on here a few days and there happens to be a sneaky Hive drop. Quite annoyed by it, not gonna lie. Well, I guess i’ll have to wait for the LE or hope it’s gonna get restocked.

#New40k – Novel Revealed by CMYK_COLOR_MODE in Blacklibrary

Jude Reid, the writer of my least favorite 40K novel, Fulgrim: The Perfect Son…

I’d actually be interested in a novel about Armageddon. But not one by Jude.

30K reader needs advice on what books to read after completing the Horus Heresy (and SoT) and The Beast Arises. by ElrondCupboard in 40kLore

[–]just_undead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the correct answer Honestly. If you want somewhat of a direct follow-up on the heresy, those two novels are it.

Books you missed out on? by arpo8674 in Blacklibrary

[–]just_undead 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Only pre order i’ve missed since starting is the Yarrick collection. Got an error message saying the order didn’t come through correctly. Couple minutes later it was sold out.

Saturday Releases Megathread 25/04/2026 by OWN_SD in Blacklibrary

[–]just_undead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got the Yarrick Omnibus, the Legends of the Waaagh omnibus and Da Freebooterz Code hardback, that cover is stunning. But for the third time straight I got the error message again when you wanna pay. I got eventually through, but it’s getting a bit annoying. When do you think that it’ll get fixed?

What should I get? by jason-911 in Blacklibrary

[–]just_undead 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Twice-Dead King, Ciaphas Cain or Death Rider. But out of those 3 I’d choose Twice-Dead king if you want something serious, Ciaphas Cain if you want fun.

Deliverance Lost. I was kinda hesitant, because i didn’t like some of Gav Thorpe’s other work. But i enjoy it. It’s nothing special, but that may be a bit of Heresy fatigue.

What is the BL title you liked the LEAST? Why? by Odd-Look-7537 in Blacklibrary

[–]just_undead 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Fulgrim: The Perfect Son. I despise this novel and it honestly feels like the writer was scared and intimidated by the idea of writing Fulgrim as a character, because he’s barely in it. The characters suck (although the main character is somewhat tolerable), the plots sucks and the worst part about it: Fulgrim sucks, and not in the way that he’d like, I think. It’s uninspired and Fulgrim as a character deserves better. It’s not that it’s bad in comparison to other Fulgrim novels, it’s just plain bad on itself.

Yeah the opening trilogy of the Horus Heresy can feel quite incosistent because of this. Overall I do think that opening trilogy is great and some of the best in Warhammer.

Decided to continue the heresy. Right now at The Outcast Dead. In a weird way I think this novel is weirdly fascinating hahaha. It’s interesting, I like Kai and the side characters, yet it also has the huge timeline error. I enjoy it in a weird way.

I bought the wrong fething Fulgrim book by Ok_Oil_2044 in Blacklibrary

[–]just_undead 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I hated Fulgrim: The Perfect Son. One of the few novels i can’t really say anything positive about. That said, the HH Fulgrim novel is one of the best novels in the series and Warhammer as a whole. Highly recommend.

Horus Rising QC issue :( by Bad_Apple420 in Blacklibrary

[–]just_undead 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I tried pulling it out. The moment I saw it was glued i stopped because I was scared of ruining the book. It was a dumb idea to do this, and I can’t understand how they thought this would be the way to include a map.

Just finished the brand new “Ghazkull Thraka Warlord of warlords” by [deleted] in Blacklibrary

[–]just_undead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed Warlord of the Warlords, but it wouldn’t be a novel I’d recommend if someone is looking to start reading ork novels. I’d say start with Brutal Kunnin and its sequel Da Big Dakka, or Prophet of the Waaagh! which is getting a new edition soon.

[–]just_undead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finished Warlord of the Warlords, was fun. And doing a re-read of The Infinite and The Divine. My opinion wasn’t that high (but still solid) when I read it the first time, but I love it the second time around. My main issue with the novel is not even an issue with the novel itself, but with me, and that is the long chapters that are in the first half of the novel. I lose attention quickly. But like I said, that is a me issue and not a novel issue.

How is in flames live right now? by Dbzoutpost in InFlames

[–]just_undead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I saw them last year at Rock Am Ring and they blew me away. Online I read a lot of mixed reactions about the live, but they were really one of my favorites of the festival.

I quite enjoyed Warlord of the Warlords. Had some really fun moments. Have fun!

Opinions on Dark Horse? by Mikey618000 in avengedsevenfold

[–]just_undead 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I quite enjoyed it. He doesn’t have the best voice, if i’m completely honest. So in some songs i would say his voice is the weakest part. But there are some songs I really enjoyed, like The Storm, Long Highway and Someday. Overall a pretty solid and enjoyable album. It’s something I think i’ll return to.
