"A solid story and a good read"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I just finished reading this and I really enjoyed it. the story doesn't cover much of the Space Wolves razing of prospero. Rather it covers all of the events leading up to it. I thought that Abnett found a really interesting way to follow this story and even has a pretty good twist in there. Basically it follows Hawser, a human from Terra (earth) who is more of a scholar/academic than a soldier, who finds himself working as a sort of journalist/sto­ryteller for the most feared legion of space marines known as space wolves.

That being said, I have read this book, and it's brilliant. The Warhammer 40K series is deeper and better than many people think – and it's also quality body horror.

Description

The Emperor is enraged. Primarch Magnus the Red, of the Thousand Sons Legion, has made a catastrophic mistake that endangers the safety of Terra. With no other choice, the Emperor charges Leman Russ, Primarch of the Space Wolves, with the apprehension of his brother from the Thousand Sons home world of Prospero. This planet of sorcerers will not be easy to overcome, but Russ and his Space Wolves are not easily deterred. With wrath in his heart, Russ is determined to bring Magnus to justice and cause the fall of Prospero.
