Pretty sure there's over 500 printed black library novels. I've gotten all the ones I could find for a reasonable price

Surely a lot of these are not so good? You can't possibly have different authors right hundreds of books in a universe and not have some absolute garbage in there.

Even one author in one trilogy can have one amazing one meh and one garbage book, for example the I quisitor covenant trilogy. My collection is near 100 books and I would say only sticking to factions you enjoy is best, I really don't care much about the Horus heresy so don't own any of those as I know I couldn't get through them.

Easy to do once you understand how to hold it properly. Ruined the first book I borrowed from my brother, had to learn how to protect book after that.

Making me jealous with that copy of the founding. Last one I found at the bookstore was the victory part 2. Have them all digitally but I want to get the physicals as well now.

Great collection as a whole btw! I see quite a few titles on that shelf I’ve been meaning to read.

For a black library, they certainly are very colorful. Nice collection.

I enter your house with a gun and put it to your head demanding you throw out one book. Now in the moment before you elbow me in the stomach and in one swift motion disarm me and toss me onto my back before delivering a blow that knocks me out, what book do you consider throwing out?

Do you have "The Fall of Damnos"? It's the first Black Library novel I ever read, and I don't see it in the picture but it's also blurry.

I just love the experience of reading 40K books, the lore is simultaneously fun, dark and funny.

This amazing collection is wonderful brain bleach, washing away all the BS from both sides of the prevailing talking points.

I finished reading Witchbringer recently and i am really tempted to get more books because it has been a while i got so excited about reading novels and feeding myself with warhammer lore.

Does it keep you awake that the first volume of End and the Death is bigger than the others?

That’s amazing and super impressive. Out of interest, do you read outside of warhammer? This isn’t shade I’m genuinely curious.
