Publisher's Summary

As the traitors tighten their grip on Terra, Rogal Dorn must marshal the Imperial hosts to weather the storm. But not all of the defenders will survive the onslaught....

Listen to it because:

Dan Abnett returns to the Horus Heresy! Experience one of the crucial stages of the Siege, as Rogal Dorn and Horus match wits in a game of Regicide where the board is the Throneworld itself, and one wrong move could lead to utter devastation....

The story:

The Traitor Host of Horus Lupercal tightens its iron grip on the Palace of Terra, and one by one the walls and bastions begin to crumple and collapse. Rogal Dorn, Praetorian of Terra, redoubles his efforts to keep the relentless enemy at bay, but his forces are vastly outnumbered and hopelessly outgunned. Dorn simply cannot defend everything. Any chance of survival now requires sacrifice, but what battles dare he lose so that others can be won? Is there one tactical stroke, one crucial combat, that could turn the tide forever and win the war outright?

Incredible. Roller coaster

I was pleased with the intro to the story scene and the way the narrators performed (x2 which was excellently executed), so many books in the warhammer series it makes my eyes water .. but the scope of the written story was great I thoroughly enjoyed it. My favourite part was The white scars charge that was likened to an old cavalry charge ! I don’t have words for the brilliant scene and story that I absolutely loved hearing. Best audible book I’ve ever listened to😊

Best Siege of Terra book yet

This is by far my favorite book of the Siege of Terra series, so far. Excellent narration - I loved both of the actor's work. Mr Abnett: you did good work.

best of the series so far

the story, the action, the characters, all fantastic. i laughed out loud more times here then in the majority of the 50+ books. however I also had more than one gut punch and felt sorrow at other times.

An absolute masterpiece

The best in the entire HH and SoT series. Best in the whole 40k universe. An utterasterpiece of tension, strategy, war, and intrigue. The worst part was when the credits came

Best one yet in the seige series

I've enjoyed the seige series so far but this was a real step up from the last 3. Probably one of the best warhammer books out there.
