First up are The Shiva Option by David Weber and Steve White, The Redemption of Althalus by David and Leigh Eddings, March to the Sea by David Weber and John Ringo, and March to the Stars by David Weber and John Ringo. This will eventually be my first exposure to Mr. Weber, which should be interesting.

I've already read the last four, they were the first ones I read as soon as the package from Amazon arrived. They are from the Horus Heresy series, based on the tabletop game of Warhammer 40K. Trust me, they're good :)
Well, now that is a good list of books!
ReplyDeleteI've considered reading the 40K novels, by the way. Never have, but they have cool covers!
You'd love them. It helps if you're familiar with the background of the game, but even if you aren't, they're still great reads.
ReplyDeleteI have a rudimentary understanding of the game world, so I think I could figure it out. We'll see!
