The Ultramarines

Post by Mr. anderson »

Well... I just finished the first three books and I must say, Mr. McNeill has done some good writing there. I was quite impressed. The novel displays the 40k universe as dark as it is supposed to be, though it doesn't convey the sense of utter corruption and hopelessness the GW fluff does. Quite good reading, really. The book actually made me think that Space Marines, though sadly boring in the game, are pretty darn cool 8) Certainly the writing is better than the Ragnar Books, even though they are reasonably well-written too. Anyone else read them or have any thoughts about them?

HUZZAH!
When I think of something witty, I shall put it here.
