About this listen

A Great War is coming, and it will engulf the Imperium of Man. The Space Marines of the Alpha Legion, the last and most secretive of all the Astartes brotherhoods, arrive on a heathen world to support the Imperial Army in a pacification campaign against strange and uncanny forces. But what drives the Alpha Legion? Can they be trusted, and what side will they choose when the Great War begins? Loyalties are put to the test, and the cunning schemes of an alien intelligence revealed, as the fate of mankind hangs in the balance.

This is one of the better books in the Horus Heresy series. Dan Abnett is a masterful writer and he shows us his strengths in this book. David Timson also did great work and he tells the story well.

Great writing and great voice acting

love this book! a good precursor to the events that take place beautifully written and read. I had given up hope for David Timson after Fulgrim but after hearing him read this rendition I can cleanly state he is an excellent audiographer.

Good espionage read, start had me thinking what was going on. But the 2nd half of the book was where it all came together.

Dan Abnett has once again outdone himself- the twists and turns of this story are amazing, the characterisation is wonderful. It’s great to find ourselves viewing things from the perspectives of Imperial soldiers, rather than Astartes, as it gives us another lens to view this universe through. It contains enough intrigue, twists, turns and reveals to be truly fitting of an Alpha Legion novel.

So a great book that still to this day has me scratching my head as to if the Alpha legion is loyal or not.

Still can’t work out if they are loyal or not
