Description

Now that news of Horus' treachery is in the open, a time of testing has come. Some Legions have already declared their allegiance to the Warmaster while the loyalty of others lies firmly with the Emperor. As Horus deploys his forces, loyalist Astartes learn that a massive Wordbearers fleet is heading to Ultramar, home of the Ultramarines.

Unless they can intercept the fleet and destroy the mighty battleship that has been sent to reinforce it, the Ultramarines may suffer a blow from which they will never recover.

Disappointing.

I started the horus heresy books after the inquisitor series, which I thoroughly enjoyed, ran dry.

Alpha Legion was a fairly good one and I looked forward to the rest.

After Battle for the Abyss I don’t have that same eager feeling to get on to the next one.

It was “bolter porn” at its most dull. Author used the same descriptive framework over and over. The amount of times I heard “for every one enemy, two more came, for every two, four sprung up!” Or “using his attackers momentum against him he flung “x” across “y” and into the “z”” or the worst.. at one point a space wolf is having an internal thought monologue about some shit he cant believe, then the paragraph ends and it goes into the internal monologue of an ultramarine who said ALMOST the exact same words…. These, among other more minor gripes made it all feel poorly written. Even in my own amateur writing I try to mix it up and keep it interesting.

Some of the voices were quite bad, in my opinion. And on the other side they barely seemed to vary. Space Wolves had a subtle Norwegian accent, aside from that and anyone who was wheezing and sputtering they all sounded the same. I did like the space wolves voices, that is a plus. Just seemed to fall short on a lot of other aspects.

I am of course spoiled having listened to Toby Longworth all through the inquisitor series. That being said, bequin was a different actor ( Helen Keely, she killed it imo) as was the voice actor for Alpha Legion, who also did a good performance.

Anyway, maybe Ill try the next heresy book anyway, I would like to get through it but if it’s more of this sort of authoring I probably won’t make it.

This one is a winner.

After a few slow burn stories, this entry to the HH is a great fast paced palette cleanser full of fighting, warp horrors and questionable Scandinavian accents.
The plot is fun and has feels like it directly continues the HH plot line.
It’s well written and fun.

My only complaint is that the main antagonist makes a few stereotypical villain mistakes like assuming the heroes are defeated when he could have just waited an hour and been sure if it. These happen a few times.

Meh

It’s the first horus heresy book i had to re-listen to chapters cause i was falling asleep on it. It stretches too long to eventually not bring anything to the serie.

Know the power of the Word!

Great book that covers a number of different legions and provides an intoxicating account of ship to ship warfare in the cold reaches of space.
