About this listen

The Horus Heresy Book 53

War is unleashed on Beta-Garmon as the armies of the Emperor attempt to hold back the tide of Chaos in the last major clash before Horus reaches Terra itself - and the God-machines of the Adeptus Titanicus are on the front line.

Read It Because: The long-awaited and much-teased battle of Beta-Garmon is here, and with armies of Titans clashing in brutal no quarters combat, Guy Haley has crafted a remarkable tale.

The Story: Horus’ armada gathers, and he has defeated all enemies sent against him, even the Emperor’s own executioner. One barrier remains before he can strike for Terra and lay waste to the Emperor’s dream.

The Beta-Garmon system occupies the most direct and only viable route to the Solar System and Terra. To break it, Horus assembles a war host of incredible proportions and Titans in untold numbers. To lose here is to lose the war, and Horus has no intention of turning back. But the Imperium understands the importance of Beta-Garmon too. A massive army is arrayed, comprised of near numberless army cohorts and a mustering of Titans to challenge even the martial might of the Warmaster.

Titans fight against Titans as the God-machines of Loyalists and Traitors alike go to war. This conflict will be like no other before it, a world-ending battle that will determine the next phase of the war.

Beginning of the End

While not the last Heresy novel the breaking of Beta Garmon was so pivotal to the story! I am a huge fan of titan conflicts and the Blood Angels! So having them both star in this was amazing. Getting to see the different plot points come together from before like Horus’ wound from Leman Russ’ attack in the Vengeful Spirit. Very excited to read the conclusion of the heresy and the siege!!

Great depth in many places.

I was rather disappointed about only 1 thing, when the HUGE Titan battle happened... it was too short. I would of expected like 2 chapters of that battle, instead it is far too simple, especially when other battles are explained fantastically.

Interesting for its titan lore

A good story, a couple of superfluous primarch chapters (needed more or none) but otherwise a good read

Love it!

This book is the epitome of total war. From Nanobot warfare all the way to Imperator titans, this book is war unhinged & unrestricted.

And a lot of personal strife and conflicts added too

Diving into the grains of the machine cult.

While this is not the entry level parlance dictionary into the heresy you might be looking for:
The premise that this is supposedly 'the worst book of the Horus Heresy' seems to be predicated on it following a Marshall Sorority within the mechanicus and collegia titanica.
As we get a deeper look into the world of the dark mechanicum, the intercollegiate politics of the crusade and biological childrearing within the cult. All the while fleshing out the khan, dorn sanguinius and Malcador and giving us a last check in with both horus and legio Mortis.
I can only surmise that the view that this book focuses solely on missable characters could only be sourced from someone either wilfully overlooking, or being entirely ignorant of the Transhumanist nature and implications of that within the mechanicus. As well as the importance of the primarchs involved in the conflict.

A True Masterpiece

This is one of my all time favorite Heresy books. It is such a good look into the Titan legios and how chaos titans came to be. Additionally this book breaks down the battle for Beta Garmon. I can’t praise this book enough, it is truly one of the best. Legio first.

The Legio walks

Haley gives us a different take on the battles of the heresy; more human stories with some light seasoning in the usual suspects of primarchs and space marines. Keeble does well with a broad cast of character types without going over the top.

If you want more varied pacing, grander scale battles, and more human concerns as a refresher in your heresy reading, along with a couple chuckles: ✅

If you want space marines and transhumans smacking each other For a few hours (totally valid): ❌
