Book Reviews of Horus Heresy: Legion
Book Review: The 2nd most informative and Interesting Horus Heresy Novel
Summary: 5 Stars
At first I was skeptical of the book through the first 20-30 pages, the setting was just unfamiliar for a Warhammer 40k novel and I had seen almost no mention of any Astartes.
But that's what's truly great about it...
Dan Abnett writes about the Alpha Legion PERFECTLY. I was always critical of the Astartes Legions simply for their quasi-invincibility and extraordinary firepower and Dan Abnett, in an amazing book, turned all my presumptions and perceptions around! The novel is exhilarating and the Alpha Legion is easily the most interesting legion to read about. More than mere soldiers, they act more like spies and throughout the whole novel you rarely see them fight. Rather, they twist, manipulate, and discover secrets within the universe in order to gain mastery of their surroundings. They're not the Emperor's lapdogs like other legions are; rather, while accepting the Emperor and ultimately following his beliefs for the good of mankind, they are still critical of his Utopian ideals.
I don't want to spoil the story, suffice to say that it teaches you a lot about not only the horus heresy but the warhammer universe in the future as well.
5 stars, easily.
