They are good when you have been used to Black Library's much more recycled lore of 40k. Not really and that's coming from a hardcore fan. Sorry for the rambling, but, have any of you read these books? Can they be considered good? because as I said I'm a total fanboy of this stuff. The whole series feel like they're trying to put out as many books as possible (they're over 30 so far) and going into unnecessary detail instead of making a good and consistent story.

For example, the eleventh book, Fallen Angels, is a direct 'sequel' of Descent of the Angels, the sixth (!!) book, which introduces a semi-parallel timeline and different characters from the previous books. What I can tell is that the timeline of the series is utterly broken, going back and forth, and resuming half-told stories from 2 books ago. I don't think I have the judgement to discern between good and bad literature. I've read several fantasy and science fiction books, but mostly modern best-sellers. but are they good from a literature standpoint? I enjoy them because I'm a sucker for the 40k universe. I've read 11 books of the HH series so far.
