- In this video I will take a look at The Ultimate Guide to Warhammer 40,000 by Guy Healy and Gavin Thorpe published by Dorling Kindersley. This is a lush and weighty tome of a book, that delves deep into the background, lore and history of one of the most iconic fictional universes ever created and then some.
Weighing in at over 330 pages, this book features hundreds of high detail and close up images of the famous Eavy Metal teams outstanding painted models that have graced the covers of books and magazines over the years and covers every faction so that there is something for every 40K fan.
This would make the perfect Christmas gift for the Warhammer 40,000 lover in your life and is currently available at a huge discount from Amazon at the link below.

Dodged a bullet, I wanted a lore book
Doesn't look like there's as much lore here as I'd hoped. I really wanted something for people new to 40k, not just telling us what's on minis.
Not much history either, because it's only the newer models.
I would struggle to call this an "ultimate guide" in any form.
It's more of a glorified catalog.
@@dallan7736 As I mentioned above I think that this is just to test the waters as you don't get two writers of the likes of Guy and Gav just to do filler stuff so heres hoping.
This is great for new people to 40. Eases them into the lore, and explains what is what. After this people can pick up a codex for the faction they like, some minis and paint , or pick up some books.
Thanks for sharing!
Should be called a guide to 40k miniatures- would be good for dk to release a book focused on the lore from heresy to now- I know he did release a glossy on Horus heresy but a simple guide to now is needed - this feels more like the Lego book do did
Hi Barry I think that this is just to test the waters and more will be coming out too be honest.
Ordered mine a couple days ago.
Great review!
I hope they make a book like this for AoS
my amazon says it doesnt come out until the 29th of october. How did you get yours so early?
seems to be out in the eu already weirdly.
Hi it came up in my Amazon recommended list and I ordered it and arrived the next day. Hope you get yours soon
So a book filled with painted miniatures that's normally used as filler in other books ....this is seriously the most newb of the new book .....could gleam most of the data from going through the GW website.
No real artwork or lore ...
This is beginners guide rather than ultimate guide
I think it is just to test the market as you don't get writers like Thorpe and Healey and just do very little with them. I think that the plan is to see how well the book does then expand and maybe introduce more lore.
It's $40 on Amazon Canada.
