I've read The Great Work by @guyhaley.bsky.social and it's a belter. Flips backwards and forwards from Heresy days to the "present". Lots of little surprises and a conclusion to one of the minor mysteries of the 40K.

The Cawl books are great and got me (slowly) started on a mechanicus army. Probably on the more lighthearted side

Great Work is okay, but the sequel is brilliant.

Wasn't so much a fan of Angron, but then daemons rarely do it dor me.

If you've read Wolfsbane, half of Great Work is a direct continuation of it. The other half is a direct continuation of the Scythes of the Emperor anthology.

Angron is not really about Angron. It's about the World Eaters and how they do (and don't) function in M41. Still quite good.

Alas, nowhere near Wolfsbane on my HH reading, though I know one needn’t go in strict order after the first ones. Good heads up, thanks Jared!

Yeah it's one of those things where the flashbacks in The Great Work seamlessly continue a plot thread in Wolfsbane. A lot of new folks don't realize this, read Great Work first and get shocked reading Wolfsbane going, "wait a minute, I know this event!"

Sweet, I appreciate the insight! I’ll definitely keep that in mind before I crack into Cawl 🤘

Angron book, dont expect lots of Angron and you will not be deflated. Good book otherwise.

I prefer my primarchs as background characters, so that sounds perfect!
