Horus Heresy: Tales of Heresy by Nick KymeI never would have read this book if a friend hadn't suggested it. At first reading, the stories seemed bogged down by the vivid descriptions that litter every page. But as I continued reading, I discovered that these descriptions allow the reader to quickly become immersed in the world without the hindrance of a lengthy introduction. (By the time the characters were introduced, I felt like I knew them personally) Each story has different characters in different situations. The stories aren't openly theoretical, but each reveals something about human nature and our need for meaning in our lives, the need for a god, and a need for a purpose.Pretty profound, but never boring.
