About this listen

In the aftermath of the Dropsite Massacre at Isstvan V, a battered and bloodied force of Iron Hands, Raven Guard and Salamanders regroups on a seemingly insignificant death world.

Fending off attacks from all manner of monstrous creatures, the fractious allies find hope in the form of human refugees fleeing from the growing war and cast adrift upon the tides of the warp. But even as the Space Marines carve out a sanctuary for them in the jungles of Pythos, a darkness gathers that threatens to consume them all.

As grim dark as it gets, a nice reminder that not every story has a happy ending. Also the emperors children are still degenerates.

The FLESH IS WEAK.

I was hesitant to get this one based on others reviews but thought it would still be worthwhile and I was happy to be right

Much better then I thought

I love WH40K and the Horus Heresy series, but I must admit, to my lasting shame, that I couldn't finish this one. Conflict or enmity between characters seemed pretty flimsy, and there's a lot of drawn out combat sequences in a story that ultimately doesn't seem to go anywhere fast. Fortunately it doesn't comprise part of the overarching Heresy story and so can be safely skipped over. Disappointing overall.

Not one of the best
