So today, I mean, like I said there’s so many things I could’ve [covered, that I could have] tapped into in the word I said Lord do you just make it easy and so, finally, I believe this is the word of the Lord. I want you to love me - love me, please! It’s a good word. In Judges 4:1-4 I’m going to talk about Deborah. I’m going to talk about Jael.

Turn Any PDF into an Audiobook | Saturday, 11AM
Hi, my name is PK Gulati. I’m the founder of the Assembly. If you’re here, you’re probably watching an Assembly workshop. We do these workshops every week and these are prepared by the Assembly team in Dubai. These workshops cover ideas from data sciences, hardware design, automation, robotics, drones, and all the other exponential technologies that can you can think about. The idea is for us to learn more than what curriculum teaches us and we are trying to bring people to start working with their own hands with these technologies, which have the capacity of changing the world.

Episode 1: Horus Heresy | Grim Dark Book Club
hi there my name is ivo lettercast and welcome to my podcast grimdark book club this podcast is for anyone passionate about the grim dark fiction genre from the horus heresy to the winds of war when it does finally come out we are going to dissect all of it expect a new post each month that dissects and reviews a new book and my current project is actually to read every book in the horus heresy series it’s over 50 books but don’t worry for those of you who don’t like 40k i promise i will be sprinkling in plenty of books from other fandoms and i also won’t be reviewing every single book in the horse hersey series only the ones that i thought were like absolutely fantastic and worth spending the time to really break down and talk about um of course i really want to review stories that we all enjoy so please if you have any suggestions make them subscribers are automatically entered in a drawing to win a free book every month so yeah that is everything let’s get started today we are reviewing the first three books in the horus heresy which are horus rising false gods and galaxy in flames and i’m doing all three together because i think they actually work better as a single book than us three separate ones and the reasoning for that is because if you ask me this is my personal opinion the first book in particular is ridiculously slow and very dense and kind of dry it’s like a scone it’s like if you’re eating a scone and you don’t have anything like jelly or jam or lemon curd to put on it so you’re just kind of like sitting there chewing and chewing and chewing and your mouth is really dry um but it’s all super important and it’s basically the exposition that sets up the rest of everything it’s a very important book i didn’t want to skip that book and i wanted to review the second and third books so i figured let’s go ahead and mush them into one so each of these books was actually written by a different author we have in order dan abner graham mcneill and ben counter and their writing styles are actually pretty distinctive when you like read them one after the other but each of these guys end up returning to write more stories in the horus heresy so their voices end up carrying through pretty far um into the whole book series and honestly my favorite out of the three was ben counter i’m not sure if it’s just that he got the better storyline or the um more exciting part of these three books or if it was his actual writing style um but i will say i didn’t always appreciate the way in particular uh dan abnett wrote female characters um and again this is all just me talking basically about the books right and my feelings everybody has their own opinions and i would love to hear them um but let’s get further into the breakdown kind of of what these books are what are they about so the genre the entire horus heresy series is classified as grimdark surprise surprise welcome to the grim dark book club even though um in my opinion you wouldn’t exactly know that you are reading a grim dark story until the second or third book in um unless you already knew about warhammer um but that brings me to their intended audience so we all know that black library only really started taking off in the past 15 years or so so it could be assumed that the audience for the stories were initially meant um to be people who already knew about warhammer and who really just wanted to get deeper into the lore obviously that’s changed especially within the past 15 years or so maybe even less but for those of you who are subscribed to the warhammer newsletter they’re pushing the books a lot more and i like that that makes me excited because that’s the type of stuff that i’m into games workshop they really want to get more people excited about the universe excited about playing and painting and building and really being a community and black library is an excellent means to reach people like me who are less interested in actually playing the game and more interested in reading the stories of the people who exist within the 40k and age of sigmar universes and watching the games be played and of course with all of that in mind like all the information i just gave you these first three books really were geared toward um the adults who enjoy reading science fiction and grim dark fiction with a militaristic theme like that kind of boils down every just about every book in the horse heresy series is it is grim dark it is science fiction it has um a militaristic theme some of them could technically be like breach into the horror genre and we’ll get into those obviously i’m going to be touching on them because i love horror i would say flight of the eisenstein fits into that actually pretty well but the books are also especially geared toward people who want to find out exactly what happened in pre-40k times that led to things being the way they were or are now in the 41st millennium so let’s go on to my rating of these books so overall i actually give these first three books a collective 6.
