About this listen

Since the earliest days of the Great Crusade, Sanguinius - angelic primarch of the IXth Legion - was ever among the closest and most loyal of Horus' brothers. But the Blood Angels have long kept their true nature hidden from the rest of the Imperium, and when the Warmaster hints that the key to their salvation may lie in the ruins of a conquered world, the sons of Sanguinius race to claim it.

Now, as the revelation of their betrayal dawns and the traitors' hand is revealed, the Blood Angels must face all the warp-spawned armies of Chaos, as well their own personal daemons, upon the blasted plains of Signus Prime....

Such a great book. Gareth Armstrong performs amazingly in this book. The story is gripping and keeps you wanting more. If you like the blood angels then this is the book for you. It delves into there backstory and explains a lot of lore of why they do certain things.

One of the best in the Horus heresy series.

Only picked this up years after release. I think it’s one of my favourites as it fleshes out the BAs whilst still having a good amount of action and surprises. Some of the other books i think drag out what should be a shorter story, this one was long but a lot happens.

One of the better HH stories
