I have really been into he space wolf stuff lately and was wondering if maybe we could start a list of all the books related to them. I really would like to learn as much as I can. So if you all wouldn't mind listing what you know of that would be great. Thank you all.

Although I heard the legacy of russ stuff will be put into one book after the series ends so you may want to wait for that.

Also does anyone know if there are any kind of break outs for chapters. I would love to see what the numbers were like for the death wolves

The Space Wolves have never successfully founded a Successor Chapter. Their geneseed does not permit it.
All of those other Chapters with "Wolf" names are either just using the word "Wolf", perhaps paying homage to the Space Wolves, or just thought it sounded cool... but are not actually linked to the Space Wolves in any tangible way.

It is best to be a pessimist. You are usually right and, when you're wrong, you're pleasantly surprised. |

There was one attempt at making a successor chapter: The Wolf Brothers. They...did not end well. Genetic instability or something ended up destroying the chapter and SWs have never tried that again. Their Great Companies are akin to small Chapters within the greater Space Wolves "legion" as it were.
