Are the novels good? I'm not interested in any of the tabletop stuff but I'd love to have a shitload of books to read.

I think some of them are pretty good! My favorites are the Ciaphas Cain series and Eisenhorn series. Gaunts Ghosts is also good if you want a more serious military read.

I finally got round to listening to a bunch of 40k stuff, I've read some in the past but not a lot and it's been a while. I started with the ciaphas cain series, it's somewhat comedic at times and the main character reluctantly gets into situations thanks to his heroic reputation. Lots of fun. Now I've been going through a bunch of Dan Abnett's stuff, eisenhorn and gaunt's ghosts. They both take themselves a lot more seriously. There's like 11 cain books and 16? Gaunt's ghosts books. It's all down to preference but I've been enjoying the guard-focused books a lot.
