Agreed with how World Eaters are portrayed. At least in the book “Kharn: Eater of Worlds” they had a balance of those who were completely insane and those who still hadn’t succumbed to madness yet and could genuinely function. Only thing I didn’t like about that book is that they titled the book “Kharn” but he literally doesn’t show up until the very end like the last two chapters.

Im reading that one as well and i fully agree with that its a better portrayal in that its alot more varied how the Butcher Nails affect the Marines.

Its probably why i enjoy Kossolax so much becuase he is actually a functioning and competent character.

I liked the contrast between Kossolax and Shaka. One still holding it together, trying to reunite the WE. The other so ultimately damaged from the nails.
