About this listen
A Horus Heresy novel
Hero. Villain. Protector. Destroyer. Loyal. Fallen. Luther embodies the duality at the heart of the Dark Angels – but what is his story? Prepare to find out....
Listen to It Because
Get new insights into one of the key figures of the Horus Heresy, who shaped the destiny of the Dark Angels for 10 millennia, in a new novel by the master of First Legion fiction, Gav Thorpe.
The Story
Knight of the Angelicasta. Saviour of the Lion. Grand Master of the Order. Lord of the Dark Angels. Protector of Caliban. Chaos Heretic. Destroyer of Caliban. Sorcerer of the Abyss. Arch-traitor. Dark Oracle. First of the Fallen.
Can one man be all of these things?
Kept alive and imprisoned for 10,000 years, Luther is the curse and the salvation of the Dark Angels made manifest. None are so close to the heart and history of the Chapter as the man that embodies all that was great about the First Legion and all that is shameful about the Dark Angels. In his story is writ the tale of the Horus Heresy and the fall from Enlightenment in a single long life. Glory, honour, pride, shame and betrayal weave a tapestry of truth and lies that the Supreme Grand Masters of the Dark Angels have sought to understand and unbind across 10 bloody millennia. Luther claims repentance for his past deeds, but was it his sins that condemned the Chapter to its secretive fate, or should warnings from history have been more closely heeded?
Written by Gav Thorpe. Narrated by Andrew James Spooner.

intriguing
I have always found the Dark Angels like the Space Wolves to be the worse of the Loyalist legions. This story is an interesting insight which gives a hint that any sanity or purpose the legion/chapter had left it with the deaths of the last Caliban and Terran legionnaires. It will be interesting to see where the story goes from here.

Great background
Loved the performances but the story’s had no climax and were disjointed and seemed to have no tie in with the current setting but enjoyed the whole book overall

Weak storytelling ruins an otherwise excellent performance
Yet again Gav Thorpe proves he cannot write intrigue or mystery and relies upon a ‘tell not show’ method of writing. It isn’t enough to tell us a character is humble. It needs to be demonstrated. You can’t say a character is a brilliant warrior, you need to demonstrate it.
This isn’t a difficult concept yet in his dozens of published novels Gav Thorpe fails to improve.

Slow start, no real ending
Bitterly dry first 1.5hrs, does gain momentum however reveals almost nothing about The Fallen disappointingly or what actually happened to split the legion.
