About this listen

After the horrors of Istvaan V, Horus declares outright war against the Imperium. In the shadows of the Emperor's Palace, powerful figures convene.

Their plan is to send a team of assassins to execute the arch-traitor Horus and end the war for the galaxy of mankind before it's even begun. But what they cannot know is that another assassin is abroad already, with his sights firmly set on killing the Emperor.

Heresy in safe hands

This book continues the breath taking Horus Heresy and doesn't disappoint. The view of opposition to Horus makes you question who is the enemy... as with all things its a matter of perspective... some nicely handled story threads you through to an exciting last few chapters.

Horus Heresy at its best

Assassin group hunting Horus and a monster made to hunt the Emperor makes for an interesting power struggle between the two leaders.

slow and dull..

i have been listening to all w40k books in order and this is the dullest so far... the story doesnt know if its a cop story or a "heist" story and then merges these two stories into the slowest and unintriguing story ive read so far.

A great plot

Loved delving into the secrecy of the assasinorum. Also anything involving Malcador and Valdor is a win for me :)

Brilliant performance

This book was really bought to life by the narration, maybe a little bit of fat could have been trimmed in the first half but it turned into what I found to be a riveting story with lots of action and dramatic events. highly recommend.
