Publisher's Summary
From out of the shadows of the Silent War, a hero emerges. Clad all in grey, an errant warrior of the Legiones Astartes kneels before the Regent of Terra, and accepts a solemn new duty - Battle-Captain Garro, once commander of the Eisenstein, now Agentia Primus of Malcador the Sigillite.
From the desolation of Isstvan to the halls of the Imperial Palace itself, he stands as a paragon of loyalty and protector of the innocent, ever ready to strike back at the traitorous allies of the Warmaster. But Garro is walking a path of his own, one that may lead him to question his own place in the Imperium...and what if he, too, should falter?
This audiobook contains James Swallow's complete saga of Nathaniel Garro in the Horus Heresy - the audio drama series is embellished and expanded in prose, with additional scenes to represent the author's original vision. This all serves as prelude to the events of the novella Vow of Faith, bringing Garro closer to his inescapable destiny as the first true martyr of the Lectitio Divinitatus.

Epic
Beautifully written origin of the Grey Knights from Garro's perspective and the best narration I have encountered so far. Brilliant.

Great!
Would of been better if the narrator used the ultra marine psyker's voice for Garro and vice versa.

Hand of the Sigilite
A great story, overall. A few parts where it struggled a little, but overall fairly compelling and some interesting twists and turns!
The voice acting was great, particuarly Malcador and the Assassin.
Nathaniel Garro remains a firm favourite of the HH series!

Enjoyable but often predictable
This next instalment advances the plot of the Heresy series in an enjoyable though often too predictable way.
At times the book shines. In depth characters and their involvement in their part of the saga often had me really enjoying it. Being able to predict quite easily what might happen next detracts from the enjoyment though. James is a great write but this didn't pull me in the same as his other novels in the series.
Narration was hit and miss. Enjoyable voices for the characters though general narration was quite monotone and emotionless.
Still a worthy listen. Still recommended.
Spoiler:
You finally find how Garviel Loken was found.

Meanders, as does the hero
Garo is one of the more interesting characters of the Heresy series. I was hoping this book would give the reader more insights and a nuanced perspectives to his character. It only partially succeeded. Garo wanders through the book, literally and metaphorically, yet reads as if single minded even in his supposed internal confusion and turmoil. Perhaps it was intented for him to remain enigmatic? I was left wanting a little more.

One of my favourites
I have read almost all of the horse, heresy books in the series by the different authors, and this is by far, one of the best, enjoyable, well read, and a story that keeps you wanting to know more and enthralled all the way through.

Superb
Another all-round winner. Superb job by everyone including writer and reader. Garro's continued story continues the adventure from previous books.
