I read a good (well pretty good as i read the entire book! ) about a kid that was a message runner for a guy that had Nurgle in it. Other than that I usually stick to the 40K imperials...Might be worth lookin into but it was a good to OK book....

you could try Riders of the Dead - its from the point of view of an Imperial Knight that hooks up with some Kislev Winged Lancers vs Chaos - its by Abnett and is pretty good.

most Fantasy books tend to have Chaos in them in one form or another so most are worth a go

Ambassador Chronicles is the best fantasy read that I've had. Set in Kislev and follows a retired Empire general mostly but there is a Chaos incursion a few short parts with the point of view of the Chaos warlord that are cool and good amount of chapters dedicated to a Chaos tainted killer. Some critics claim that it reads a little slow i.e. not enough action but what is going on is really great character development.
