Dan Abnett is a fantastic writer, and looking forward to his books is what kept me chugging thru 'the slow books' of The Horus Heresy. If I had some way to prove it I would claim that he launched the series single-handedly. Although I haven't read it in awhile, I remember Legion being my favorite from the series. The Eisenhorn/Ravenor stuff is probably my favorite work of his overall.

If I might make a return suggestion, Use of Weapons by Iain M. Banks is a fantastic high-tech / futuristic / philosophical-introspection-type-space-opera. If that's a thing. (Unless 'Player of Games' sounds more like your thing.... I consider it to be a better intro book to the series... but I'll try not to dissolve into that discussion O.o)

Seriously all of his books in the HH serious are stand outs, Legion and Prospero burns are both very different but individually brilliant.
