Dem BosainI started to watch the last season. About 15 minutes in I realized I just didn’t give a shit.
I’m glad I gave up after season 2. I kept waiting for something important to happen, but all I ever got out of it was poorly written family drama.
I mean these are just the prequel. You knew how it ended before you even started.
RozaŭtunoThat’s how I handled most of the New Jedi Order books, the mainline Star Wars Legacy books that take place after that, and also the Dune books by Brian Herbert and KJA.
The Star Wars books at least sound good in outline form. I’m not about to spend any time reading them for real to find out otherwise. The latter day Dune books, OTOH, sound like absolute shite even in the summary.
Assuming you mean Supernatural, while I didn't care a lot for the Leviathan storyline, I'm glad that I made all the way through since it picked up again after except the very last episode which I didn't care for. Ending on the second to last episode would have been perfect for me.
season 5 was suppose to be the true ending, because of kripke, he gave up after people wanted to continue it. outside of 8, and 11, every other season was pretty bad. also jack was apparently shoe-horned instead of using jessie turner as the anti-christ in the show.

Yeah, I just hope we get a adaption of the water 7 arc. I also hope they just skip skypea, cause that one of the weakest arcs. If we ever get Marineford, it will probably be a disappointment.
There’s a crap tone of duplicates?
Seems so.
TomMaszThe Owlcat game is pretty cool
My method was to play Warhammer: Total War with a friend who knew all of the lore and constantly ask him stuff about the armies we were fighting.
As a person who’s not into the table top games, but loves the lore.
I watch/listen to a few channels:
WesHammer - www.youtube.com/channel/UCSDj6ttwzj2sr464jDdg_pA
He does a short introduction (on camera), then the rest is audio with relevant artwork and some video from the games.
Aside from the usual deep’dives into the various factions and popular characters, I enjoy his Grim Dark Story Hour vids. These focus on creepy (horror) short stories from random Warhammer books, where Wes does some voice acting as well.
The Sleepy Hollow - www.youtube.com/channel/UC86zNGwCUt5gBnizRSWSLuA
Warhammer lore (and game lore). It’s meant to be for helping people get to sleep. But I listen to it during the day. If you do use it for sleep, watch out for the super loud Youtube ads that play in the middle, if you don’t have Premium or use Peertube.
There are a lot of other Youtubers that do good content as well, like Arbitor Ian etc.
The top two are my recommendations.

Warhammer lore content made simple. My videos designed to be fun and engaging for veterans and newcomers alike as 40k can be pretty daunting and dense. I break the big complicated stuff down into simple easy to understand videos and do my best to make learning about the grim dark fun! I am a massive 40k nerd and have been deeply engrossed in this universe for almost 20 years.
For 40k, I've been watching a lot of bricky (also does non warhammer stuff so I've linked a specific video) and krakduk. (does the annoying youtuber voice, if that gets on your nerves it might not be the channel for you)
There is also the lexicanum for everything 40k, old fantasy, and age of sigmar.

vaultdweller013Also if you want to watch funny series with a disappointment of an ending (FUCK YOU GW) Warhammer TTS is a good place to start. Though some warning the team that did that are now doing a series based on World of Darkness set in North Norfolk England, they also have a Mage campaign set in the same setting but it takes place in Norfolk Virginia.

I would recommend The All Guardsman Party as a pick up along the way experience.

PsaldornI got suckered in because the first book was by Dan Abnett, and I ran out of both Eisenhorn and Gaunt’s Ghosts, so Horus Heresy sounded like a good idea. I read about a dozen of them before I realised the poor quality of most of them outweights by investment in the story and gave up.
Yeah… Dan Abnett is the pretty much the only writer keeping the black library from being a huge pile of trash.
They didn’t expect the successful of the first few that made the times best seller list, thats like massively more than they expected to sell, so they increased the planned number and the quality dropped massively as they expanded to the authors to suit.
If you read just the best books you’d still get the same favour but cut it to about 20 books or so, including the best ones in the Siege of Terra that are the actual ending.
Any suggestions to the better ones? I’ve been wanting to branch out into the books.
Thanks!
I’ve read only first 14 books and the first one - “Horus Rising” is the best. “The First Heretic” is also pretty good, it’s doing a great job explaining Lorgar’s motivation.
Cool. Thank you!
I think this list is pretty close to the best books, you can jump off with series based on your favourite characters like Garro if they click for you: booksreadlisten.com/best-horus-heresy-books/
Couple those with the Siege of Terra but skip may be the first wall (as I detest Thorpes writing) and Mortis as its a bit boring.
People might say that way spoilers lye, however the ending was main lore even before the series started.
Neat, thank you
turdcollector69I started but quit because there’s too much. Do you know where I can find a condensed list? I can handle 10-20 books, I can’t handle 60
Try this one for the best books, you won’t have all the plot lines but the main plot was decided decades before the series even started
I’ve dislocated my shoulder fourteen times. Somewhere amongst those dislocations, I had a surgery to stop it from happening again. (It didn’t work.) However, the surgeon apparently forgot to write a prescription for the kind of medicine that one would usually have after having a shoulder sliced open. As a result, I didn’t sleep that night and, as a further result, I read the entirety of a Warhammer book.
(I’m not actually sure it shows up in this stack; I think it was a witch hunter series. Most of what I remember is some nemesis severing the tendons required to smile.)
Anyway, I haven’t dislocated my shoulder in a while - whether due to surgery or fortuity I couldn’t say - but the above is all that comes to my mind when I think of Warhammer books. Also, I now have three tiny scars about my shoulder.
That could be a couple different ones.
But, Inquisitor Gregor Eisenhorn had his ability to show emotion severed during interrogation by an enemy, and due to that person’s ineptitude at torture, he lost the connection for some nerves in his face. I’m reading that series now, having started several books too far into it and finding a ‘you’re the clone of other character from the first few books’ and needing to restart so I could get the full context
I’m sorry for explicitly disregarding your username, but there are multiple books in which Eisenhorn (thank you for reminding me of the name) has his expressions disabled?
I am not far enough to know if it happens an additional time, or if he ever gets them repaired. In the book I read first (supposedly 7th in the series, by mistake) it seemed he could make some expressions but that takes place a while after the first book in the series that I’m wrapping up, where it has just recently taken place.
The first book is called Xenos, at least that’s where I’m reading that covered the paralysis part.
