About the Author This omnibus edition follows the career of Uriel Ventris through three novels and two short stories. The Ultramarines series is one of the best selling sf series in the 40K universe. Osthoff Good choice for those new to the Warhammer 40K novels ) I have been a great fan of the Warhammer universe, both Warhammer Fantasy 40K, for many years. Having finally decided to read some of the novels, I browsed the possible selections and ordered a few. I was unable to do any tabletop gaming with anyone because of my busy schedule and this was just the thing to slake my battle lust Uriel Ventris makes a magnificent central character and is fleshed out well. ![]() As others have said, the stories are fast-paced and keep one interested in the action. A lot is packed into the tales and it was a joy to read them. The first story in the omnibus, Nightbringer, is an excellent overview of much of what the Warhammer 40,000 universe is like; skilfully incorporating many elements that those that are familiar with it know and love. My only criticism is the ending of that tale is a bit rushed, like it is wrapping up loose elements, where it really doesnt have to do so for the story to end well anyway. Beyond that minor criticism - which is just a mechanics of writing nitpick and does not affect the enjoyability of the rest of it - I would recommend this book to anyone that likes this genre, especially those new to the Warhammer 40K novels. I will be reviewing a few more of the Black Library books that I have read since this omnibus, soon. Hail the Emperor Burn the heretic, purge the xenos Guy Love Ultramarines Omnibus two parts great, one part average. Yes, I liked reading the book and found the Ultramarines fairly interesting. I had just finished reading the compilation of short stories in the Let the Galaxy Burn omnibus and saw several crossover characters in this collection of novels. As I learn more about the W40K universe, I think it makes the overall story line more interesting but could also lead to confusion as to why certain characters are in a story (i.e. The gang in the second story). The first story was very good as mentioned by other reviewers and I thoroughly enjoyed the lawful good aspect of the Ultramarines coming up against a very evil space god during a corporate civil war. In this case I liked how the Ultramarines found themselves working with other Space Marines that had completely different world views. Very over the top planetary destruction scenes, but thats what makes W40K so fun to read. The third story was by far the weakest and apparently had multiple crossovers of stories that I was unaware of when I read it.
