No pure ice worlds here, nor planets with twenty alien species speaking one language. Also, unlike the SW universe, we see planets and travel between them that makes sense. With the exception of a ill placed lightsabre energy sword, most of the tech in the world didn't seem out of line. Let me assure you that the praise I will be giving this series is in respect to other tie in novels(looking at you Star Wars), I know full well that this is not going to appeal to literature snobs.įirst of all, the world works. All three books contained(and the two short stories) were a first person narrative of Eisenhorn, a inquisitor who searchers for influences of Chaos though the galaxy. Luckily you need no knowledge of the WH4K world to start, what little background that is needed is dropped in ways that didn't piss me off. But Abnett was fairly consistently named as a good writer of fun sci-fi, so I gave this a go. This is my first run of the Warhammer Universe, something I didn't think I was interested in.
