No, just a novel written by someone who ... well, as Rath said in the other post, there are no good guys or bad guys in W40K, just different factions, each with their own definition of right and wrong. Mr Counter's biggest failing here is perhaps forgetting, or not realizing, that the entry-level perspective that Chaos R Teh Ebul becomes more complex, more involved and more ambiguous as you move deeper into the concepts of W40K.
I think it just comes down to that comma in "died, or worse". If it was "died or worse" it would make much more sense.
Utterly. It was going to make me laugh wherever it turned up, but when it turns up describing a dropship full of Space Marines ... oy, heh.
I think it's less that he doesn't believe it's there [since it very definitely is, and won't fuck off no matter what anyone does] but more that he believes it is all-deceiving, never presenting an honest, sincere or benign face ... so ... basically ... he thinks all Chaos is Tzeentch.
