Just finished "Fulgrim" and I would like to sue Games Workshop and mr. McNeill for the emotional devastation of how things started and ended between Ferrus and Fulgrim

Hey, Warhammer mutuals/followers/random people seeing this, what is your opinion on Fulgrim (book) from the beginning of Horus Heresy series?

Would it be a good entertainment and provide me quality content of Fulgrim (dude) and/or Emperor's Chidren as a whole? Preferably content I can meme like there is no tomorrow.

Or am I looking forward to disappointment?

Crys Reads Horus Heresy: False Gods

Started: 24.12.2021

Finished: 07.01.2022

Previous book: Horus Rising

And now for the assortment of my deranged notes. I am excluding some quotes I wrote down in Russian and might mix up names a bit where the translation is very different from the original:

Can't stop thinking about this "so what if traitor Primarchs went to play some DnD-like tabletop and it was exactly like you would expect from people who are already chaotic murderhobo gremlins IRL" scenario from Fuzzverse

So, I finished False Gods yesterday and the main emotion I have for now is "Horus, you giant anime walnut"

Yes, of course, why to use giant cathedral-bearing battle robots of doom you were using extensively all other days to shoot at the obvious trap, no, we must get closer and stab them with our space swords in glorious melee.

This is how you get stabbed and die a horrible death.

In his defense, after Loken brought this up he at least tried shooting at stuff with giant battle robots, but only a bit.

I slap his balding head. Twice.

I can't believe Sindermann accidentally summoned a daemon by reading Erebus' head scribbles out loud.

Is everything about this guy just a massive haha, screw you to the world?

Okay, this moment in the False Gods with Horus introducing Mournival to Petronella.

While they were wrestling Torgaddon so he will not tell a joke about damn bear again. With Loken specifically holding Torgaddon head under an elbow.

Amazing. The gift that keeps on giving. The most epic "behold... My friends!" moment imaginable.

Crys Reads Horus Heresy: Horus Rising

And now for the assortment of my deranged notes:

Horus Rising - finished! Now onto the False Gods.

And some time later I will go over and make post of my notes regarding the book too. I posted some of these, but not much.

And like, yeah, this is not some big analysis, more like "here is a fun joke Horus said!" or "here comes Erebus and here comes my ache to throw hands with him!" or "and yet again we are shown human civilization that has reasonably calmer tits compared to Imperium!"

Adeptus Custodes standard issue Guardian Chain-spork. Gold-plated, obviously.

Am I going to elaborate? Who knows

Lucius "Hey, maybe Emperor made those giant murderbugs and set them loose in the space so we will have strong oponents to fight with"

Vs

Saul "Surely those murderbugs who open power armour like soup cans and move so fast they outpace Astartes sense must understand human superiority over them. Maybe they are jealous?"

Fight

My biggest pet peeve with reading this Russian translation of Horse Hearsay for now is that they insist on writing out all those number designation for fleets and planets by words.

Which means that I am dealing with passages like "четыреста двадцатый и шестьдесят девятый флоты идут к планете сто сорок двадцать три" on a regular basis while reading and then it would be important for plot, but I am sorry, I have one braincell and I can barely remember actually interesting details.

Like Horus' secret club poking fun at Abby Not Yet Despoiler.
