There's a short story about him in the anthology Let the Galaxy Burn. It's pretty good.

He's also in some of the Horus Heresy books. He's a minor character, the equerry to Angron. He's not quite the Betrayer yet, but there's a couple of good moments with him.
When he goes nuts on Istvaan III was one of the more memorable parts of Galaxy in Flames.

The wrath of kharn in the let the galaxy burn anthology. It focuses on kharn and his world eaters assaulting a slaaneshi cults temple and shows how devoted to his god kharn is

yeah in the second one it's not quite as obvious where to look for him. I dont want to ruin it because it's kind of a surprise when it happens...

There is a new one coming out about him in October, Chosen Of Khorne.
Deep within the Eye of Terror, the followers of the blood god Khorne war amongst themselves to win their patron’s favour, and for the right to lead a new crusade against the Imperium in his name. Argus Brond, berserker champion of the old World Eaters Legion, has called upon his old comrade Kharn for assistance – surely, this legendary warrior will break the deadlock and secure victory for him? But Kharn, known with good reason as ‘the Betrayer’, is far more than just a crazed killer, and his own agenda will always come first...

Pretty funny plot line if you ask me.... Silly Argus.... Kharn doesn't pick sides.... well kinda. He picks which side he'll kill first

Just to give you an idea of how Kharn acts, here's an exchange Kharn has with a Slaanesh cultist (it's been a while since I read Wrath of Kharn but the exchange goes...)
*Kharn storms into a throne room*
Cultist: Welcome to the Heart of Desire. What do you wish?
Kharn: YOUR DEATH!
And his personal warcry seems to be "death is upon you!"

There's a few entries about him in the CSM codex as well. A memorable one is him throwing the lower half of a Berzerker's body at the champion of that unit after cutting the pesky top bit off.

Arguing with some people is like playing chess with a pigeon. You can play the best chess in the world, but at the end of the day the pigeon will still knock all the pieces off the board and then gak all over it. |
