I can’t say I feel like his prose is mind blowing, but with novels like Storm of Iron and A Thousand Sons I can’t not include him.įinally Peter Fehervari and Robbie MacNiven, in my opinion, do a good job really hammering home the darkness of the setting and deserve more attention if you want some comparatively less well known works. If you’ve read the wiki and Lexi I imagine you’d be able to jump into the Heresy relatively easily. There are other authors I might put in here based on personal preference or from previous eras, but you can’t go wrong with anything by those five.Īnd of course there’s the Horus Heresy if you want a long term multi-author series. This list is far from exhaustive in terms of good BL writers, but if I were going to make a top Warhammer novels list these guys would take up a lot of it.ĭan Abnett, Aaron Dembski-Bowden (if I spelled that correctly), Chris Wraight, Guy Haley, and John French are pretty clearly, at least in my mind, the best writers in the setting at the moment. More personal and haunting, but less oppressive. Abnett’s work has its own style, but it’s just as dark in its own way. It sounds like you’re mostly interested in authors? Really all of them emphasize the grim dark to a degree.
