I know I posted this on [URL="https://www.reddit.com/r/40kLore/comments/c5caop/full_horus_heresy_series_timeline_interactive/"]reddit[/URL] (r/40klore) but I wanted to share it here too. Want to get as many suggestions etc as possible.

Note: SVG lacks the cool cover photos on hover- Not sure if I can get around that. It also lacks a proper zoom function / control. This shouldn't be an issue for mobile users. Jpg is a worse version of that, but still functions good enough.

I wanted to make a chart that not only covered the entirety of the series but highlighted the important reading order of the major story arcs. I wanted a chart that was [somewhat] interactive, in that you could search, see cover images, and I wanted to include links to the wiki for each book to get a bit more info then you would from the chart. The emphasis, again was reading order for the major story arcs and eventually how they come together... it's not necessarily meant to be totally spoiler free though it does work that way. It's just not exhaustive. The overall layout is basically governed by the arcs themselves, as they relate to each other. that's basically the only thought process to layout- the only importance was readability and the least confusing sequence of arrows basically. lol.

Spent at least 20 hours putting this together, using a few different charts and a little of my own research. The charts that I drew from were good but were either not up to date and/or didn't have everything I wanted.

Now I will certainly admit I haven't even read half of these yet so please if you have corrections, post! I will fix. I still have a bit more to do, mostly in adding more of the short stories and ensuring everything is there. Also as a forewarning I'm not sure how it views and works on other resolutions, especially on phones... but it should work better than a flat jpeg that old charts were. Again, feedback welcome.
