Summary
A Horus Heresy audiobook anthology
When Horus rebelled against the Emperor, the ensuing civil war nearly destroyed the Imperium. War raged across galaxy, resulting in a struggle where death was the only victor.
Listen to it because:
Events from the Great Crusade and the early days of the Heresy are explored in a series of short stories covering the Space Wolves, Word Bearers, World Eaters, Dark Angels, Sisters of Silence, Custodian Guard...and the Emperor himself in a unique tale that will you have questioning all your assumptions about the Master of Mankind.
When Horus the Warmaster rebelled against the Emperor, the ensuing civil war nearly destroyed the Imperium. War raged across galaxy, pitting Astartes against their battle-brothers in a struggle where death was the only victor. But long before that, the Legions struggled with their identities and the demands of the Great Crusade. From battles with alien invaders to conflicts within a Legion, and even dealing with a wayward primarch, these stories show the battles fought as the Great Crusade draws to a close and the Horus Heresy begins....

Great stories, excellent performances!
I really enjoyed this audiobook. A very refreshing taste of different stories after other books in the HH series, which can get bogged-down with 16 hours passing for the same story.
Definitely grab this if you want something a bit different.

Gives character to the Heresy.
Enjoyable snacks of heresy. Not nesessary to read but gives the heresy some colour. Tales ranged from decent to exiting.

Short stories, BIG info
these may be short stories but you gain a sense of who these different characters are. Angrim for instance, more beast than man.

Interesting anthology.
The contents of this anthology are as follows;
Blood Games by Dan Abnett
Wolf at the Door by Mike Lee
Scions of the Storm by Anthony Reynolds
The Voice by James Swallow
Call of the Lion by Gav Thorpe
The Last Church by Graham McNeill
After Desh'ea by Matthew Farrer
A very interesting selection of stories, from various times of the Imperium.
A couple I found to be weaker than others, but none were bad. It will come down to personal preference as to how the listener rates each tale. For the record, I think The Last Church was a wonderfully crafted story, and possibly my favourite.
Very recommended for fans of 40k books.

Interesting stories
This anthology has been fairly interesting, a few great stories, others a bit less but still interesting.
- Blood Games: A nice view on the Custodes and at the beginning of the Heresy. Nothing fantastic, but a few good surprises.
- Wolf at the Door: One of the best of this book. The pride and honour of the Space Wolves is greatly portrayed, and the struggle of the Crusade it's well represented. The end really makes you feel the heaviness of the Imperium impossible task.
- Scions of the Storm: Unfortunately one of the weakest. The Word Bearer are a fascinating legion but in this tale they are not greatly represented. A decent plot but nothing extremely interesting.
- The Voice: The worst in my opinion. I listened to it 2 days ago and I barely remember what happened as it never caught my attention.
- Call of the Lion: Even though I love Dark Angels lore this story was a bit disappointing. It gives a great insight on the internal division in the legion between Terran and Calibanite brothers, but the development is a bit rushed. A good plot which unfortunately lacks a bit of character.
- The Last Church: Definitely the best, it is worth the whole anthology. A great look at the last days of religion on Terra and the painful irony of the Imperium in 40k as we get to know it.
- After Desh'ea: A very unexpected story about the most brutal legion, all based in a starhip (with the only exception of memories). I am not a great fan of the World Eaters, but this "prequel" into their birth really gives a lot of depth to this legion, and even more to Khârn.
Overall an interesting book. It slows the momentum of the Heresy a bit, but it is a great focus on a few elements of the lore which would go unnoticed in the great scheme.
The narration is great in all the stories, a pleasure to listen.
