$2 is an absolute steal for this book. Anyone curious about starting the trilogy should take this opportunity while it lasts!

Finished reading The Worst of All Possible Worlds, last book of the Salvager’s trilogy by @alexwhite.bsky.social
To say these three books are my favorite I’ve ever read is to seriously undersell it. How lucky I am to have gotten to experience them. If you have the chance, absolutely read them.

VERY excited to start the last of @alexwhite.bsky.social ‘s Salvagers Trilogy. Bittersweet to know this will be the last adventure of the Capricious’ crew I’ll read.

Thank you! I started with Chaos with Thousand Sons, and have an affinity for Tzeentch, but the Word Bearers are tied for my favorite legion with the Iron Warriors and Night Lords.

A Dark Apostle, holding up a large book wreathed in sickly green flames and holding forward a large rod that serves as both badge of office and primary weapon. On both shins and the power pack are speakers to amplify his voice as he chants dark invocations and foul prayers to his Dark Gods.

Post image One of his Dark Disciples, a man with his arms chained across his chest like a straight jacket, securing a large plinth to rest the Dark Apostle’s book on. Most of his face has been replaced with a speaker to further amplify Solandath’s orations.

My Dark Apostle, Solandath Vorodak, who constantly vies for power to command the war and with Kallibrax, Avatar of Ascension. Lightly altered using a 30k Praetor helmet, meant to show Solandath’s vanity. #warhammer #warhammer40k #chaosspacemarines #darkapostle #miniatures

A Chaos Space Marine, using his ability to manipulate the Warp to float rather than walk, wielding a staff with occult symbols, a Chaos icon with skulls engulfed in ethereal flames, and holding one such enflamed skull in his left hand.

More decorations, including a fur draped over his shoulders with feathers intertwined, bones, stones with runes, and scrolls around his waist, and 4 trophy skulls tied to his waistcoat hem.

Close-up of his helmet with a skull motif, and a necklace of a bird skull, teeth, and a stone with a rune carved in it.

The head of his staff, with a very occult motif of a horned skull with glowing eyes, some stones with carved runes, a tooth, and a small Chaos star tied on a string to opposite points of the staff head.

The model that I first painted as a Word Bearer and started me on my favorite army, a Kallibrax, Avatar of Ascension. A Master of Possession, and in constant conflict to lead the warband with Solandath Vorodak, my Dark Apostle. #warhammer #warhammer40k #chaos #chaosspacemarines #masterofpossession

A little hard to see, the tip of his tail has a little mouth lined with teeth and a tongue sticking out, my personal favorite detail of him.

A collection of skulls and a severed, decaying head, trophies taken from previous kills.

My favorite part (aside from the small tail mouth), his half-bird, half-monster head. A small beak flanked by 4 eyes (2 on either side), mildly bejeweled tentacles like a mohawk, and a lower jaw lined with pointed teeth posed mid-scream with a demonically long tongue.

Figured since I put “paints” in my name, maybe I ought to show some of my minis, starting with my favorite model thus far, V’kesh Fatetwister, my daemon prince of Tzeentch. #warhammer #warhammer40k #chaos #miniatures

Please, don’t be sorry! Your plots are gripping and thrilling, characters so fleshed out and memorable, and you always pull off surprises expertly! Every twist and turn in Big Ship had me re-reading in shock, and I love to hate Dorian in Cold Forge. Seriously fantastic work ❤️

Just finished A Big Ship at the Edge of the Universe by @alexwhite.bsky.social
Absolutely fantastic, and can’t wait to read the next two. Between this one and Alien: The Cold Forge and Alien: Into Charybdis, they’re easily my favorite author I’ve ever read.
