00:00:00.000 Greetings you proud sons of the Empire! Today I have a book recommendation actually, or several,
00:00:16.020 talking about the Horus Heresy in the Warhammer 40k universe. So here's the books I've read so
00:00:22.200 far in the series. Looking rather glorious in all actuality. And the best one of those is Fulgrim.
00:00:33.120 So it looks like this. Highly glorious and now you think like oh why would I want to read science
00:00:42.720 fiction when I can read something about self-improvement or philosophy or economy etc.
00:00:47.580 I would actually say that these books are, first of all they're a great motivation. Like you want to
00:00:53.820 kill it in the gym because you want to be a big juicy Astartes warrior like a space marine. But
00:00:58.620 they are also so epic. Like this was the first science fiction books I read and I was like okay
00:01:05.880 cool I'm gonna give it a try. And good god I love the books so next culture stack might just be to
00:01:13.980 return to the Warhammer 40k universe just because of the epicness. And also I would say that there is
00:01:20.220 a great philosophical element in the books which gets you to think. Especially in this one. Especially
00:01:27.600 if you're into bodybuilding etc. With physical perfection and everything like that. This was
00:01:32.700 one of the best books I've read just because of that. Just because the conversations in the book
00:01:37.540 I was like thinking all the time expanding my own mind via the thoughts in the book. So um
00:01:43.780 I wouldn't view the Horace Heresy as just an epic saga. I would also view it as something that you can
00:01:50.900 draw inspiration from and expand your own mind with. Yeah it's not philosophical work or self-improvement
00:01:55.940 per se but great motivation and great way to get you to think and just you know the epic scale of it all.
00:02:02.500 So yeah really really fascinating books. Fascinating as fuck actually. Really love them. And there are
00:02:09.540 like 30 of the books so I'm looking forward to continue reading them. Now I have some other books
00:02:14.740 that I read right now before I return to that universe. But yeah really solid books. I can
00:02:20.020 definitely recommend them. Great motivation. Great motivation for our current situation in
00:02:25.220 in modern Europe as well. So yeah get into it. Great recommendation right there. And who am I?
00:02:34.340 I'm the god emperor of mankind xoxo. Boom!
