a warhammer 40k by dan abbnet
pretty good dan abbnett is a pretty darn good comic book writer but he also writes many books my warhammer knowledge is limited to a pc video game i played way back called warhammer dark omen. i know nothing about warhammer 40k. but havent had much trouble following or getting acclimated to book and its setting.
the reader martyn ellis is quite good

I read the novel a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it, although I briefly played/collected the tabletop models casually in my youth I have little interest in the gaming side of warhammer, but I find the lore quite interesting, as you enjoyed Horus Rising I'd recommend Abnett's Gaunts Ghosts and Eisenhorn 40k novels, Abnett has also written a couple of Who novels and audios I think.
I read somewhere that Big Finish is one of the production companies used to record some of the Warhammer audios.

The Horus Heresy is, in many ways, the Foundation myths for the 40k universe, and the first five books/audios are the foundations for what is now a FORTY book series. My preferences are for Flight of the Eisenstein (which establish a massive ongoing storyline) and Legion, which introduces a number of important players.
