About this listen

Reborn in body and spirit beneath Mount Deathfire, the primarch Vulkan gathers his most trusted sons and prepares for the final part of his journey.

The Legions shattered at Isstvan V have stalled the Warmaster’s advance across the galaxy, but fresh cracks are spreading through the alliance between the Iron Hands, Salamanders and Raven Guard, along with mysterious rumours of the return of Ferrus Manus. Haunted by a sense of destiny unfulfilled, Vulkan must choose between joining their war of vengeance against the traitors and following his own barely understood path all the way to the Throneworld itself.

Vulkan lives! The Horus Heresy is moving forward

Well narrated with memorable characters and a good story, it is a continuation of a long running series that would not make sense to people picking it up without the back story of the other books

A mess of a story

This book lazily wound up several storylines which have been evolving over the course of the series. It jumped from plot to plot to plot with little coherence, cheaply ruining everything set up beforehand.

Gripping

Another unmissable audiobook in the horus heresy series. The gripping journey of Vulcan and his sons attempting to reach Terra and hurdles they must overcome.

the heresy series is way over hyped

at this point I'm so far in a I'm going to finish the series but god has it been a slog. a series of stories about half realised characters that die just when they start to get vaguely interesting. I'm not even disappointed that this was a meh story I'm just numb to it at this point. eldrad was cool...... I'm a salamanders player so Vulkan not being a completely brain damaged lunatic was also nice

worst heresy book yet. voice acting great.

first review I've ever done on the heresy books. I'm up to this one. just finished it. keep away from this steaming pile.

a couple good vulkan bits. the rest completely forgettable. seems every book vulks in he ruins.
other than the one when night haunter fiddles him.

genuine review lads. skip this.

voice acting is great as expected from Jonathan keeble
