Story
After seven long years of conflict, the Horus Heresy nears its end. But now, as the Warmaster Horus marches on Terra to rip his father from the Throne, the seat of the arch-traitor’s power lies empty. Cthonia, a world once dominated by brutal murder-gangs, is occupied by the Emperor’s praetorians—the indomitable Imperial Fists. For the Sons of Horus, this outrage demands a reckoning.

Story
The Shattered Legions crew of the Sisypheum, broken and at the end of their endurance, find themselves divided - torn between following their resurrected captain on a suicidal mission or obeying orders to return to Terra and rejoin their Legion brothers. Following a series of garbled messages intercepted by the Kryptos, the divided warriors descend to the shattered surface of Luna. Here, their bonds of loyalty, duty, and their devotion to one another will be tested as ancient horrors of the earliest days of gene-manipulation are unleashed, and a long-buried secret is revealed.

Story
Of all the Emperor’s sons who fell to Chaos, it is perhaps Magnus the Red whose tale is the most tragic. Sanctioned because of his desire for knowledge, chastised, judged, and shattered to his very elements – there is much for the Crimson King to feel vengeful for. Yet revenge is not the only thing that draws him to Terra alongside the Warmaster’s besieging armies. He seeks something, a fragment, the missing piece of himself that lies within the most impregnable place on the planet – the inner sanctum of the Imperial Palace.

Fell times have come to the galaxy. Cadia has fallen, destroyed by the onslaught of Chaos. A Great Rift in the warp has opened, and from its depths spew daemons and the horrors of Old Night. But all hope is not lost… A hero, long absent, has returned, and with him comes the wrath of the Ultramarines reborn. Roboute Guilliman has arisen to lead the Imperium out of darkness on a crusade the likes of which has not been seen since the fabled days of the Emperor. But never before have the forces of Ruin amassed in such numbers, and nowhere is safe from despoliation.

Story
The Night Lords were once among the most potent forces of the Imperium, Space Marines who used fear itself as their weapon. Now, cast adrift from the Emperor's light and hunted as heretics after their monstrous betrayal, the Night Lords clad themselves in symbols of death and fight the Long War, bringing pain and terror to all who worship the corpse-god of Terra. A summons from Warmaster Abaddon sends these rebels on a dangerous journey that leads inexorably to a conflict with the Emperor's chosen warriors, the Blood Angels.

Story
Supreme Grand Master Azrael summons Lazarus and his Fifth Company to honour an old debt on the Knight world of Reis – a planet upon which the warp has set its hungry gaze. But Lazarus is not so sure Reis wants to be saved – its Knights are long lost, its governance is dogged by political strife, and internecine conflict hampers the world’s defence against an ancient evil. An evil which, like Lazarus himself, refuses to die.
Publisher's Summary
The Siege of Terra Book 1
After years of devastating war, Horus and his forces have arrived at Terra. But before they can set foot on the Throneworld, they must first break the defences of the Sol System.
Powerful fleets and cunning defences bar their path - but can anything hope to halt the advance of the Traitor armada?
Listen to it because:
The final act of the long-running, best-selling series starts here, with a brutal and uncompromising look at the first stage of the Siege of Terra, the war to conquer the solar system. Armies will fall, heroes will rise and legends will be written....
The Story
After seven years of bitter war, the end has come at last for the conflict known infamously as the Horus Heresy. Terra now lies within the Warmaster’s sights, the Throneworld and the seat of his father’s rule. Horus’ desire is nothing less than the death of the Emperor of Mankind and the utter subjugation of the Imperium. He has become the ascendant vessel of Chaos and amassed a terrible army with which to enact his will and vengeance.
But the way to the Throne will be hard as the primarch Rogal Dorn, the Praetorian and protector of Terra, marshals the defences. First and foremost, Horus must challenge the might of the Sol System itself and the many fleets and bulwarks arrayed there.
To gain even a foothold on Terran soil, he must first contend the Solar War. Thus the first stage of the greatest conflict in the history of all mankind begins.

I loved HellsReach and The Betrayor but this was a mess to me. No idea what was going on or who I was meant to be following.

Might come back and finish at some point but honestly the books abundance of action actually makes it more boring as there isn’t must in the way of politics or intrigue

Does what it says on the box
It’s more of the Horus Heresy, what’s not to love? It’s particularly nice to see Rogal Dorn and his Imperial Fists in the setting since they’re often absent from other Horus Heresy books being on Terra and all. I highly recommend listening to this while you’re painting or if you just want to hear about ludicrously big space battles.

What you expect.
This is a warhammer novel through and through.
The narration is fantastic, possibly the one of the best throughout all the warhammer novels.
The story is quite dull, slow and it takes forever to get rolling, when it finally does you're still waiting for... something, to happen.
It's pretty much what you'd come to expect from a 40k novel, the characters are mostly humans, who don't really do much, the main protags (the big boys on the covers) are sidelined, despite being way more important and way more interesting.
If you're excited to learn what is going on during the siege of terra, then you should read this, it's the beginning, but don't expect much more than that. This is the first book in the siege of terra, nothing more, nothing less.

Gets really good eventually
Stick with this one, it takes a few hours to get interesting but it’s worth the wait. All of it is a very necessary set up for the rest of the Siege of Terra.

Absolutely Boss.
Keeble nails the narration as always, his ability to change his voice acting as Daemons is something to awe at.
Loved the story and happy to hear some more action from Dorn as it's been too long! Bring on the epic HH battles as Terra is around the corner!
