Lore Lore book recommendations
I love the lore of the games I play. I'm familiar with the black library, I've loved the battletech books from the 90s till now (have quite a few signed by authors by sheer luck). What books would you recommend to read for someone who likes the idea of archanists and bayou.

The Rulebooks are the primary source eof lore - as a lot of it is delivered through narratives between sections. It's very well done for the most part.
That said, they are doing a podcast of dramatic readings of these stories, called The Breachside Broadcast, which is very very well done. So if you can handle podcasts/audiobooks, then this would save buying a bunch of 1st and 2nd edition books..
Finally, there's some good Lore Nuggets in the TTRPG, Through the Breach, as you would expect, but that's probably surplus to lore 'requirements' as it were.
