This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

You get a lot out of rogue trader, it's a pretty solid start. As for the books, I would not start with the Horas books because despite the fact that they are canonically the first books you kind of need to know a bit to understand what is going on.

Eisenhorn and Gaunt's ghosts are to two best introductions. Not a lot of xenos in those ones, but you get to see the scope of both the Imperiam and Chaos forces.

Also, it's okay to cheer for the ghosts.
