Anybody recommend any books I can read that have lots of orks action? I'm into orks but can't seem to find good books with them in it. 40k universe of course.

From the Dark Angels POV, but The Purging of Kadillus has a lot of Ork action and a good read IMO

The book 15 Hours is IMO a must read for all 40k fans.

Beast arises series is a pretty major story dealing with Orks.

Guy Haley is my favorite author when it comes to Orks.

Rynn's World does a good job of showing the savage and horrifying nature of Orks (which is the side the people in the 40k universe get to see, the humor part is all from Orks and reader's' perspectives, IMO).

The Beast Arises series has tons of Orky goodness. I'm still working my way through them, as there are a lot and the non-ork parts are a slog for me.

The Sanctus Reach books are about the Imperium trying to fight off an Ork Waaagh! and I've been enjoying them. Evil Sun Rising by Guy Haley is in there and that is my favorite Ork story yet.

Baneblade by Guy Haley is a Baneblade crew fighting Blood Axe orks. It is quite good.

Deff Skwadron is a great comic. I think is free online.

Lots of people love Fifteen Hours. I thought it was decent, but not great.

Helsreach is another one that lots of people love but I thought was just okay. (I'm mentioning these because so many people love them, so they probably are good and I'm just picky.)

There have been Gaunt's Ghosts and Ciaphas Cain novels with Orks as the antagonists, but I read them so long ago that I can't remember if they were any good.

The Beast Arises series.

Ciaphas Cain 'Death or Glory' is a pretty decent read where the antagonists are Orks.

Siege of Castellex has the Orks invading a planet run by the Iron Warriors, it's a good book I thought. It doesn't give any Ork perspectives though.

Not a lot of modern stuff. But the old codex and gorkamorka rule books have some good reading. Try and find a guy on the Ork forums called Dim. He has some pretty well written ork stuff.

Deff Skwadron is a comic from the perspective of the orks. It’s well-written and a fun look into the mind of an ork.

Thanks for the info. Read the comic yesterday and enjoyed it tremendously.
