This great value anthology incudes the following stories from some of Black Library's most loved authors: Meduson by Dan Abnett The Noose by David Annandale The Keys of Hel by John French Unforged & Unspoken by Guy Haley Immortal Duty by Nick Kyme The Either & The Seventh Serpent by Graham McNeill Deeds Endure by Gav Thorpe Grey Talon & The Hand Elect by Chris Wraight Driven almost to the brink of self-destruction at Isstvan V, the Iron Hands now seek vengeance for the murder of their primarch Ferrus Manus. Gathering survivors from the Raven Guard and the Salamanders aboard any vessels capable of warp travel, these Shattered Legions wage a new campaign of annihilation against the traitor forces across the galaxy – a campaign masterminded by legendary warleader Shadrak Meduson. This Horus Heresy anthology contains ten short stories by authors including Dan Abnett, Chris Wraight, John French and many more. Also, in the novella The Seventh Serpent, Graham McNeill revisits the ragtag crew of the starship Sisypheum as they are drawn into a war of subterfuge against the Alpha Legion.
Reviews with the most likes.
The Raven Guard/Iron Hands marriages of convenience are becoming as tropey and boring as anything to do with Calth.
The Seventh Serpent might be the best story in the lot, but even then, you struggle to keep the cast of characters straight. Is it because it's too complex or really just that it's so hard to care about any of these interchangeable marines?
Move along.
