Beautiful and heartbreaking

My only real experience with warhammer and the HH came from this trilogy so I had no idea of what was to come. Phenomenal writing with characters you actually care for and narration that brings it all to life. This as with Horus Rising and False Gods was one of my favorite audio books.

Good book building up the story of horus heresy.

builds the setting of the horus heresy. It's a bit slow to start, but builds well and has a great finish.

The Turning Point

Assuming you've read books 1 and 2 in the Horus Heresy storyline this is where the proverbial ish hits the fan. Fantastic writing and superb voice acting as expected from this series. Just don't expect any joy at the end of this book.

Shorter than I'd like but jam packed.

Man. This is it. Tragedy. Horror. It was well sorter than I would have liked but it was totally worth it.

i got to say it's very reminiscent of Revenge of the Sith's Order 66.

BETRAYAL

The story in this title was a bit shorter then the one before, but it contains so much more gritty, heart pounding action that you just can’t put it down. The decision to be loyalist or traitor really comes to a new light in this title. It is fantastic all the way through. Never at any point was I disappointed that I wasn’t given enough details. This was the best one yet. I have one complaint, but will keep it to myself because it’s a spoiler. I don’t hand these out often 10/10. Spectacular read.

Epic

The story is phenomenal, the characters have great depth, and the narrator is fantastic. I'll be starting the next book as soon as I submit this.

I enjoyed the story a lot and the reader too but..

During the interludes between parts the music that plays is at a much higher volume then the reader and it's terrible and jarring.

Thrilling actually

Pacing is a little weird, but I think that’s because of the setup from the previous book. Otherwise this was actually excellent. I love the characterizations of all of the characters by Toby Longworth. He stays true to them throughout all of the books I’ve listened to so far and it builds a really great image of them in your mind.
