I remember seeing a Warhammer 40K book in my high school that I’ve forgotten the title of. It was about a space marine (an Ultramarine if I remember correctly) that had been sent back in time a 1000 years trying to get back to his own time. And there were Orks involved, too. If anyone knows the title of this book, I’d be greatly appreciative if you were to comment it. Thanks.

Maybe others LLMfoo is better - but not getting any strong hits involving time travel and Orks.

I don’t really trust LLMs, since they tend to hallucinate stuff.

It’s just a tool. You don’t necessarily need to put your life in its hand.

Would you happen to have an approximate year?

Book or comic/graphic novel?

We’re relatively confident it’s 40k and couldn’t be something else – maybe Starship Troopers ish?

Paperback book. Seen roughly around 2017-2018. Definitely Warhammer 40K. Had the Space Marine on the cover I think holding his weapon, probably an axe.

Malodrax by Ben Counter

Check if that might be it. The story involves a “time gap” - but not necessarily time travel.

Nope. That’s not it.

Rules

Keep it civil.
No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
No contemporary politics, no political debates. This is a space to enjoy the hobby and get away from the doomscrolling.
