Publisher's Summary:
In the immediate aftermath of the Word Bearers' attack on Calth, survivors from both sides were driven into the subterranean arcology shelters by the tortured Veridian star.
While their primarch Roboute Guilliman had planned for many seemingly unthinkable eventualities, the Ultramarines now face a new war in the underworld - could Steloc Aethon, renowned captain of 'the Honoured 19th' Company, be the one to lead them to ultimate victory over the traitors? Perhaps, if he can master his own bitter desire for vengeance....
Members Reviews:
Great Book
Great book for someone who has been reading WarHammer for many many years.
Terrible and inconsistent
There is a wide variance in how weapons affect one target vs another. A joyless slog.
Hardcore henry on paper.
Non stop action. A delightful read after being subjected to "The damnation of pythos" or whatever it's called. Also known as "the author has no idea how to write space marines and will subject you to Twilight levels of self absorbing crap."
Five Stars
Product arrived on time and as described
Tiresome and flat with little passion for the characters written about.
With how the majority of the Horus Heresy books have gone I expected great things from this book as well. As the saying goes in Warhammer 40k: "Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment".
The book is half the size of the other books while holding the same price point, while this is not necessarily a bad thing as quality can more than make up for length of story... it did not. Which brings me to the second issue: the characters are flat. It is hard to differentiate one Ultramarine from another as they are all written exactly the same with no inspiration put into the characters one bit. The writing itself is fine and clear but the lack of passion put into the pages made it an excruciating read to get through.
If you have kept up with all of the main Horus Heresy books and have loved the story so far I would have to advise on not reading this one. If you are a collector then go ahead and buy it, just don't waste time reading it for your own sake.
