I see, thanks for the response! The problems/consequences I was referring to were based on a post, I think even in this exact community, about someone who had bottom surgery and was having lots of trouble with it, from the hospital staff during the initial recovery being absolutely unfamiliar with it, to having to concoct their own cleaning solution to avoid infections and bad smells. It made me pretty concerned.

I hope you don’t mind me asking, but on the topic of MTF SRS, are the “consequences” as bad as they’re made out to be? I’ve heard stories about having to dilate daily for years, surgeons not being able to agree on how to take care of it in the long run, leading to infections, and so on. It made me pretty cautious of it, even though I think it sounds pretty cool in theory.

Not Horus Heresy, but I’ve also been having fun with the Fabius Bile Omnibus by Josh Reynolds and The Night Lords Omnibus by Aaron Dembski-Bowden. In general, heretic novels, at least the ones I’ve read, have a higher quality on average than the loyalist ones. Xenos ones can be fun too, Infinite and Divine, Twice Dead King, Ghazghkull Thraka, and Brutal Kunnin’ were all fun. The best loyalist one I’ve found so far was The Fall of Cadia, but even that’s mostly just big good guy shoots big gun at big bad guy. Might as well read Ork books at that point, they’re at least having fun. Actually, that’s not quite right, The Great Work is also a good loyalist one, although I’d have preferred more Cawl and less Primaris Marines.
