I finished Titanicus, and I have to talk about it (no spoilers)

I miss writing on this subreddit about the books I have recently finished, I used to do it so much a few years back, and discussing these books with other people always made me happy

So, That Title isn't very commonly known unless you're part of the Warhammer 40k Lore Community.

Titanicus is a book from the Black Library, written by Dan Abnett (a famous 40k writer), about the Collegia Titanica, specifically the Legio Invicta. They're, in the simplest most crude terms, Giant War Machines that wage wars for the imperium of mankind. The book is split between different POVs from the simple inexperienced army officer to the captain of a task force, and from the leader of the forge world under attack, to my favorite character in the entire book, Lord Gearheart: The Red Fury, and the main Princeps (Driver/ CPU) of the main war machine (yes, they fuse humans with war machines).

If you've never read 40k lore, this might seem very strange and incoherent, but this is the perfect chance to get into it. The world-building is immaculate, there are different POVs from various characters, the action is fierce and impeccable, and the climax leaves nothing to be desired (except for a certain person).

You will struggle a little bit in understanding what most words mean, but just google them and open "images" and it'll explain itself fairly quickly.

This is my first time reading a 40k book that doesn't have Astartes and Space Marines in it.
I didn't enjoy the multiple POVs much because I just wanted to follow Gearhart, but it was alright in the end.

Again, if you want to get into this world, either read Helsreach or Titanicus; World sieges are amazing in this universe.
