solid collection of stories

Revisado: 09-02-24

this collection is likely most well known for the popular short story, The Ancient Awaits, but I wouldn't advise anyone skip any other story to get there. There are no duds here. All stories contain a satisfying peek into the mind, makings, or methods of a primarch.

I like stories about battles and sieges

Revisado: 01-25-22

this story has both of those things. I've also grown attached to Snorri Nosebiter. He's been a real solid, good dude these past 2 books.

enjoyable, just a bit jumpy.

Revisado: 01-20-21

Maybe it's just the style of the book but it seemed to go from set piece to set piece and sort of "yadda yadda'd" over the in betweens.
Some people might like that more than the alternative, more action, less traveling between towns. It caught me off guard how they'd just sometimes wrap things up in 2 sentences and move onto the next thing.

Great voice for Gotrek

ADB is a master

Revisado: 06-13-20

it is a pleasure to listen to the nearly poetic prose of Aaron Dembski-Bowden, particularly following even a good effort by Graham McNeil. A world where ADB wrote all the W40K books would be a much better one but, since we live in this reality, every book we are blessed to have him write should be enjoyed like wine in a world full of grape juice and vinegar.

worst 40K book I've ever wasted time on. SKIP IT

Revisado: 04-25-20

this book has convinced me that Graham McNiell uses ghostwriters. what a shit show. mild spoiler ahead.

the book gets Magnus' spirit visit to Terra wrong by 2 years and makes it make no sense then later tops itself in ridiculousness by having a fully armed and armored custodian lose in a 1 on 1 fight to a naked World Eater. This is C.S. Groto level writing. skip this book.

performance pretty good, story also pretty good.

Revisado: 03-14-20

I don't want to spoil anything, so i'll just say 1 of the characters is a bit of a Mary Sue, there are some parts with a lot of characters all talking to one character, but half of them aren't developed or unique enough to remember who is who, and certain people could have really benefited from an off-site, air-gapped, backup solution.
