Ce deuxième volume de la saga “Horus Heresy” est peut-être un peu moins bon que le premier, mais seulement à la marge. Cela reste un récit épique passionnant, avec des personnages charismatiques et intéressants à suivre. Le premier volume est une longue et captivante introduction du contexte et des personnages, celui-ci lance réellement le récit avec les débuts de cette fameuse Hérésie d'Horus qui constitue l'un des événements majeurs de l'univers imaginaire de Warhammer 40k. J'ai hâte de lire la suite avec le troisième volume que je vais commencer dès maintenant !
False Gods picks up a few months from where Horus Rising left off. While Horus Rising did a good job of laying down information about the main characters and their personalities, I found it to be a little too slow paced for my liking at times. False Gods picks up the tempo and does an excellent job of making Horus' gradual slide into treason seem believable and understandable.
