Summary

Far out on the Eastern Fringe, the realm of Ultramar stands alone. Having weathered the Word Bearers' attack on Calth and the subsequent Shadow Crusade against the Five Hundred Worlds, the Ultramarines primarch Roboute Guilliman now draws all loyalist forces to Macragge as he contemplates a new future for mankind.

With the arrival of more and more fugitives from the war that has engulfed the rest of the galaxy, all distinction between friend and foe is lost - isolated from Terra by fearsome warp storms, is Guilliman making a bid for power to rival even the renegade Warmaster Horus?

Loved it, but I want more.

I loved it, the story was great, the performance was the usual amazing voice acting Iv come to expect from David Timson. My only criticism, while it was great story that had me hooked from start to finish, I don’t feel like the book moved the Horus Heresy story along vary far, which was disappointing. Looking forward to the next chapter in the Imperium Secundus arc.

Great interactions between Guilliman and the Lion

Great interactions between Guilliman and the Lion. Great performance too. Could maybe do with some more characters who could die, but overall really enjoyable.

An Enjoyable listen

Engaging throughout, offers some great insight into the motivations of both Guilliman and the Lion. My only complaint is that Sanguinius barely features despite being so prominent on the cover.

One of the best

Fantastic story, excellent narration.
A real treat for loyalist fans, even if like me you’re not a fan of perpetuals.

Paced like an action movie (or several)

There is a lot that happens in this book and it seems strange that so many storylines could progress simultaneously without messing up the pacing, but somehow it works! It's greatest achievement must be making Rowboat Girlyman a genuinely likable and "non-marysue" character. A great read if you are a fan of Conrad Curze, The Lion, Vulkan, Space Wolves or the 30k Universe's version of James Bond!

Loved it

It was great from start to finish, one of those books that make you go ”oh sh*t, only one hour left!?”. A lot of ultramarine focus ofc but also dark angels and some other great chracters from the series. I think it ties up some of previous books as well!
