Our reviews of Dan Abnett's work
Blood Pact
by Dan Abnett
A late Gaunt's Ghosts novel. Abnett moving the series into a quieter and more political register.
Double Eagle
by Dan Abnett
Warhammer 40,000 air-combat novel by Dan Abnett. Yes, really. Yes, it is much better than that description suggests.
Gilead's Blood
by Dan Abnett
A Dan Abnett Warhammer Fantasy novel about a doomed high-elf swordsman. Abnett doing brooding tragic-hero fantasy. Better than most expected.
Hammers of Ulric
by Dan Abnett
A 1990s Warhammer Fantasy with Dan Abnett, Nik Vincent, and James Wallis. The Cult of Ulric, three knights, the Empire in winter mode.
Ravenor
by Dan Abnett
Dan Abnett doing far-future psychic-investigator novels in the Warhammer 40K universe. Tighter than the Eisenhorn books before it.
Riders of the Dead
by Dan Abnett
Dan Abnett alone, doing a Warhammer Fantasy Kislev novel with cavalry, undead, and the kind of fantasy steppe writing the form rarely allows.
Straight Silver
by Dan Abnett
A mid-period Gaunt's Ghosts novel. Trench warfare on a barely-habitable Imperial world. Dan Abnett doing WWI in space and meaning it.
Titanicus
by Dan Abnett
Dan Abnett writing the Warhammer 40K novel that nobody asked for and that turned out to be one of his best. Giant war-machines, factory cities, and an honest piece of social fiction underneath the metal.
