About this listen
Once the brightest star in the Imperium and always first among his primarch brothers, Horus has dragged the Space Marine Legions into the bloodiest conflict that the galaxy has ever seen. While their allies wage war on a thousand different fronts, the XVIth Legion descend upon the Knight world of Molech - home to the ruling House Devine, and a principle stronghold of the Imperial Army.
The forces loyal to the Emperor stand ready to defy the Warmaster, but just what could have drawn Horus to attack such a well defended planet, and what might he be willing to sacrifice to fulfill his own dark destiny?

Interesting and Enjoyable
This book delves into Horus' journey to Godhood in order to be able to face his father. Definitely worth listening too.

An awesome story and a return of fan favourites
The XVI legion is back and in prime focus for this story that centres on Horus and his Sons attacking Molech; a Knight World that guards a secret so powerful that the Emperor erased the memory of it from his Primarchs. It is this gap in his memory that motivates Horus to descend upon Molech. He believes that the Emperor gained his godly powers from the planet and plans to reap the same power for himself. At the same time, Malcador dispatches an elite squad of Knights-Errant to infiltrate the Vengeful Spirit in a potentially suicidal attempt to subvert Horus' march towards Terra.
Anyone who loved the first three books in the Heresy series because of the focus on Horus and his legion will love this book. Old characters return: Abaddon, Aximand, Loken, Qruze. And more, including a Death Guard warrior thought to be dead. There is plenty of dialogue between Horus and Mortarion, who has joined Horus' attack on the planet. But the best part is that we see the inner workings of the Sons of Horus now that a number of years have passed since the Heresy began. They have changed, but still retain similar personalities to what we remember, although they're far more uncaged. The interaction between Horus and his Mournival is also a welcome return.

Good stories with some old friends.
I liked this book a lot. No shade on the narrator. But I wish Toby Longworth voiced it.

Very theatrical
Horus steals the show with every line with his pure theatrics. I love it, superb

A Slog
The story is.... you need to pay the battle scene description tax to get to any story, drip fed you get some story advances and compelling characters but it's a lot of small interactions that are spread thin across the battle scenes that don't feel compelling.

Predictable, Pedestrian, Poor
Follows a predictable path with characters thrown in to get your interest but nothing more.
