Publisher's summary

The Great Crusade that has taken humanity into the stars continues. The Emperor of Mankind has handed the reins of command to his favoured son, the Warmaster Horus. Yet all is not well in the armies of the Imperium.

Horus is still battling against the jealousy and resentment of his brother primarchs, and when he is injured in combat on the planet Davin, he must also battle his inner daemon. With all the temptations that Chaos has to offer, can the weakened Horus resist?

A brilliant reading, as the first one.

A delight to listen to, if the writing was in my opinion weaker this time. Nevertheless, a very enjoyable audiobook.

Great story

I did not like how from Horus Rising, to this book Horus changes from being so humble to headstrong over a matter of days. I think this is mostly just this author's view of Horus, as it is present from chapter 1.

good listen

good story, I would like to know a lot more and I wish it was longer as there are a lot of questions left open for more or less the reader to choose.

Required listening

McNeill and Longworth have excelled themselves. Words do no justice to their efforts in making the Heresy come alive.

Strange turn of character

The direction GM takes Horus makes very little sense after reading Horus Rising. He goes from a calm collected strategist on a quest for leaves to a warmongering madman who disregards all of his trusted council and turns to chaos on a whim abandoning whatever few admirable traits he had left by the end of the book.
