Dan Abnett

Dan Abnett is the most popular author of Games Workshop paper book publishing division, the Black Library.

Series include Gaunt's Ghosts (an amazing starter book for people getting into the 40k fluff), Eisenhorn (fantastic) and Ravenor (OMGAWESOME-ICRIEDBUKKETS).

Dan is known for fun action writing and rampant sodomy of Warhammer fluff, like Imperial Guardsmen toting around Autocannons the size of a howitzer. His characters are very well developed and are distinctive and orginal; he can write a god-damn action scene better than any; the areas Dan describes sound achingly beautiful; he's a versitile writer and.... Look, he's won tons of awards for his stuff, many believe he's the best Black Library have got, he's written around 20 for them and each one is brilliant.

His graphic novel Imperial Gothic is pure sex.

Dan Abnett has also teamed up with another BL author Mike Lee to make the Malus Darkblade warhammer fantasy book series.
