RIGHT - Sorry for having to reup - as someone rightly pointed out, annoyingly left blank space at the opening of the video. SO now - a big video today talking about Eisenhorn, and also showing off my Siege Studios Eisenhorn mini. I just will add also that for this I wanted to focus on the core 3 books for material even though there are others which touch on elements of Eisenhorn - just wanted to clarify that. Condensing all of that into one video was still quite the challenge so I hope it comes over well enough, big thanks to all your support - any appreciation in the likes is a big thanks from me :D

Just so you know Luetin you are single handedly responsible for piquing my interest in warhammer lore, thank you for the hours and hours of entertainment you offer through all your hardworking, your videos are a cut above the rest.

This video is Rated E for Exterminatus.

Eisenhorn's battle with the Titan, and the subsequent binding of Cheraubael was honestly one of the most grimdark things I have ever read.

[Lordradost]

Last time I was this early, the Eldar were still discussing consent and foreplay.

Edit: read these books and Ravenor's. Amazing stuff

The Emperor's light between all of these Nurgle attacks

[Alaztor]

My favorite hero of WH40k series... he even questions himself after speaking with a friend, that he never have stopped to think how RADICAL he had become during his long and grim journey whilst fulfilling his holy duty.

Thanks for pointing out that Inquisitors are not the psychopaths many say they are, Luetin, I’m glad others can see they are as varied as mankind itself and their struggle is monumental.

Eisenhorn is the perfect introduction for the 40k universe to the public. I'm so nervous and excited

[dmitriygryaznov]

Personally, at the end of the books I SUDDENLY realized that Eisenhorn had been drifting towards radicalism for a long time, but I only acknowledged this very late because I was distracted by Eisenhorn trying to survive or solve some other matter at hand.
Which I think indicates a "fall from grace" story very well handled.

[deluisserrano]

I remember just shying away from from 40k just because of how thick the lore is. This videos have singlehandedly brought into the 40k universe

[claeswelinder]

In particular, I appreciated the portrayal of Eisenhorn in The Magos, the only story in the series where Eisenhorn is not the storyteller but is instead described in the 3rd person view.
This was excelent done by Dan Abnett.

[Kskage]

Eisenhorn is the greatest inquisitor stories, next to ravenor.... All hail Dan Abnett

[thomasboys]

The audiobooks were amazing. Highly recommended and Toby Longworth makes a great Eisenhorn.

[qadamov]

My favourite Eisenhorn moment was in the transport headed for the second assault on the tetrascape when he sees the young soldiers have added the inquisition emblem on their uniforms. Real cool moment of silent gratitude to him for handpicking them.

[BDR]

Ah, it is good to have such grand content in such plague driven times!

[StarboyXL]

"The Magos" is my favourite Eisenhorn novel, mostly because of the ending and its reference to Lovecraft's "Hastur" in the figure of the heretical mastermind "The Yellow King". I can't wait to see if Dan ever follows up on that and leads us to the heart of the conspiracy that Eisenhorn sold his soul to unravel.

Your videos are something special - I first got into 40k when I was 12 years old ..38 years later and you have brought me back to the fold brother. Thank you

Remember to pray to the Emperor for his intervention on Terra against the Nurgle sent evil.
