I want to order one of the Eldar bOoks, but I'm not sure which, is their a big difference between path of the seer and warrior? If so which should I order, or any other good Eldar/Dark Eldar books. Preferably including prince yriel or duke sliscus

If you do put unrelated, please say which unrelated book, thank you

Seer is the sequel to Warrior, AFAIK.

None of Gav Thorpe's series ("Path of the...") will feature Duke Sliscus or Yriel.

They revolve around the occupants of alaitoc craftworld.

Path of the Warrior was book one. Revolves around Korlandril, an artist who becomes an aspect warrior. Introduces the other characters (Thirianna and the Ranger one who start out as his friends - until he alienates them)

Path of the Seer is book 2. Revolves around Thirianna, a former aspect warrior (Dire Avenger) who joins the witch path as a Warlock/seer.

Path of the Outcast/Ranger/Scout/backpacker on gap year will be book 3.

Yriel is a primary background character for Iyanden (different craftworld, outlook and position in the galaxy. Also still recovering from being nommed by Tyranids).
Duke Sliscus is a minor supporting DE character and they don't even have any novels yet (except where they might be bad guys who get used as target practice).

Oh well I learn something new every day. So are there any books concerning Yriel and Iyyaden?

I dont know of any books with Yriel in it. Maybe some of the Imperial Armor books has a little story on him? I dont know cuz I've never read any of them.

However, I can highly recommend "Path of the..." books, especially Path of the Warrior. If you're going to read them, I think you should read them in the proper order.

So Warrior then Seer, got it.

Edits because I can't spell

And I read somewhere about something called Midnight on the Street of Knives concerning DE, is that any good?

Path of the Warrior gets a bit overboard with the hyperbole and can drag, but overall I found it an enjoying read. Beware, there isn't much action though save towards the end.

I see, I tend to like the faster paced books more. Tbh i dont give a rats ass about Eldar culture, it just seemed like it would be good
