About this listen

Siege of Terra Book 8, Part 1

The arch-traitor Horus Lupercal's forces have bombarded Terra and the Imperial Palace lies in ruins. With the Emperor's dream in tatters, he seeks only to rob Chaos of its ultimate victory...

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

It's the beginning of the ultimate conclusion to the Horus Heresy, and hope still remains for the Loyalists! The Emperor plans a gambit that could snatch victory from the jaws of defeat – but at what cost?

THE STORY

There is no way out.

The walls have fallen, the gates are breached, and the defenders are slain. It is the end and the death. After seven brutal years of civil war, the Warmaster stands on the verge of victory. Horus Lupercal, once beloved son, has come to murder his father. The Emperor, a shining beacon of hope to many, an unscrupulous tyrant to others, must die. The lives of uncountable numbers have been extinguished and even primarchs, once thought immortal, have been laid low. The Emperor's dream lies in tatters, but there remains a sliver of hope.

Now, at the final hour of the final day, the Emperor rises. With him come his Angel, his Praetorian, and his Captain, all determined to enact terrible vengeance. Yet the hope is slim, for the Warmaster sees all and knows all, and the ultimate victory of Chaos is at hand.

There is no way out.

I have read every book, short story and novella in both the Horus Heresy and Siege of Terra series and this is a fitting beginning to the end if ever I heard one.

Dan drops bombs in every chapter, despite Audible getting loads of the titles wrong, keeping the pace up whilst managing to weave another of very disparate threads into a complete and satisfying story.

As with all the other entries in this series Jonathan Keeble has been consistent, flexible and clever with his delivery.

for those of us that know where the story is going there are plenty of big new reveals and information drops. I can't wait now for part 2......

And so the end begins

Although I guess BL will make us wait a year since they are even more heartless than Kurze, so many little bits of lore and teasers in this novel, I really enjoyed and I know others will and some won’t, that is the nature of the Grimdark future

Part 2 please!

I was looking forward to this and I was definitely not disappointed with it. The story and atmosphere are brilliant it really gets the large battles and destruction happening around terra and the magnificent that is the throne. I would definitely recommend it.

I was left wanting more!
