Love this book after some of the slower novels that have been published recently, such a fear to tread and the weird such as Vulkan lives (bit fragmented for my liking). It was nice to read one of Dans novels. Although not his best work it's still up there for me. He is by far the best 40k noveli...
Félon (2000)
This tome sets the stage for the tremendous Angron-Roboute Gulliman battle (Lorgar Aurelian is there too, of course).A true moment of moments for the Heresy, as the Nails drive Angron completely over the edge, and Lorgar evolves him into Daemonhood in order to save (?!) him.I will always enjoy re...
Verlorene Söhne (2012)
The most misunderstood of the legions, A Thousand Sons provides an excellent tale of brotherhood and betrayal who showcase truly awesome feats of power. Definitely more human-like Astartes in the Sons, much to McNeill's credit. Their pursuit of knowledge and its preservation has me conflicted in ...

Mechanicum (2008)
Well, The Black Library apparently has its own STC on writing Horus Heresy books xD Though, the emotions are vastly varies for me while I've been reading through three recent books of the series, which were "The Legion", "Battle for Abyss" and "Mechanicum". It was like "Wow, that's splendid!" dur...
A Thousand Sons (2010)
Prior to this book, I had a neutral to favorable view of Magnus the Red. "Thousand Sons" demolished that and built nothing but contempt in the ruins. Aside from the disgustingly overblown verbiage used to describe the Primarch, his attitude and actions consistantly grinds my opinion ever lower....
