HORUS HERESY NOVELS RAVEN GUARD ATTACK.MARS SERIES
Anyone who loved the first three books in the Heresy series because of the focus on Horus and his legion will love this book. 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. He believes that the Emperor gained his godly powers from the planet and plans to reap the same power for himself. It is this gap in his memory that motivates Horus to descend upon Molech. 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. All in all it's a good Heresy story but with a mediocre execution.Īn awesome story and a return of fan favourites It felt as if it was glanced over and then the story moved on. One last gripe I have with this book is that it's climax was a bit disappointing in the way it was constructed, despite its major significance to the Heresy. This also means less time for character dialogue and development. Also I feel that too much attention was given to the description of warfare and battles, so much so that by the time any battles finish I had a hard time remembering what was the battle fought for. And by the time the story returned to an arc I was previously interested in, I had already lost interest in that arc (like for example Horus's journey to the endgame).

There are so many characters and character arcs that I had a hard time caring for any one of them. While advancing the Hours Heresy story, this book feels like it was rushed, or it was meant as a trilogy like the first three books. And second - the narator did really good job, but I just wish they have used the same narrator as for the first three Horus Heresy books, specifialy because of Garviel Locan character - he so much deserved the rough, tough voice he had in the first three book and he deserved it so much more with what he had to face in this book, it was very strange to hear him speak in "school-boy" like soft voice, the comparison of that voice difference was quite breaking the immertion for me many times. but well, I guess that is the point of "Choass" and their ways. Especially when Imperator titen fell, that felt quite cheap the way it happened and why. strange magic here, huge ton of luck there, coincidence over there, it happened so many times, that I just felt like "aaaagh, die already!". partly because it felt almost like "cheating" the way how they overcame obstacles. Even when I know, that Horus will survive, I wished so much many times that he just dies. But I have really rooted for the "good guys" and was sad to see so many desperate moments ruining their day and I really wished the "bad guys" just die, how can they survive so much. First - overall story is nice, I liked it. I usually don´t write reviews, but I have to share my thoughts on this one.
