Book 68 is "My Brother's Keeper" by Tim Powers.
Moving on to the next book for this year, and it’s something a bit different. I have quite a few books on my shelves already where Grant Morrison is the author, but they are all graphic novels, unlike this traditional novel. I’m only a chapter into the story and I’m already buying copies for some of my nearest and dearest to go in their Chrimbo stockings

This is my first “dark” romance. I may have laughed more than the author intended….

Book 61 (Siege of Terra 7): Echoes of Eternity
The first half of the book makes some jumps to the past and shows some details about a tragic friendship between a Blood Angel and a World Eater; meanwhile a lot of blood and death happens when the loyalists attempt to flee behind the last wall, the fnal major defensive position.
And at some point I realized the loyalists just experience what hundreds of other planets made through when they denied to become part of the imperium. Among them two primarchs fight knee deep in death to hold out just a little bit longer, knowing that in the end it might not make a difference.
I explicitly loved how we learn a bit more about the Skitari and the relationship between space marine and their servants and also the weird effects of the warp on the lost souls on the traitors ships. The book is full of these small details, which made it worth reading, though the first half did not catch me as much.

Part One: ALL DADS ARE MOTHERFUCKERS
📖🦉✨Promising!
In fact, after some scene-setting short chapters, gets nicely gory.✨ 🦉 🩸
🦉 is pleasantly on page 42.
Book 60 (Siege of Terra 6): Warhawk
In contrast to Mortis we experience how some soldiers inside a tank accompany the White Scars on the final(?) sortie against the lions gate space port. Sounds similar but actually a lot different.
Still we have many different things going on, and I am unsure whether it is a good thing the authors try to put in that many story archs. Sometimes there is the impression that some things are just there to be pushed through the story.
Maybe it is the burden of 60 books, where no one knew how to bring it to an end, and now the decision was made not to wait any longer. In general I liked the book though, because after Mortis I guess any book will shine.
