“They see our light”, a bit of cosmic horror in my Warhammer media. This feels like a reference to the Tyranids, but I'm not sure. Even if it's not the story does fill you with just the right amount of dread to wonder if the civil war humanity is fighting is really that important in the cosmic theme of things.

As a story it's clearly just meant to be a set-up to another, it does this well while still telling a compelling enough standalone story as well. I enjoy reading from the perspectives of the more depraved legions and this story doesn't disappoint in that regard.

I honestly don't know how to feel about this story, the writing was fine but I feel like I neither learnt anything interesting or new about the universe, nor does it feel like a complete waste of time. I think I'll have to revisit this story later and maybe that'll give me more of an appreciation for the story (or the opposite).

This story perfectly shows the duty the Blood Angels experience, and how they perform their duties within the quirks and traditions of their legion.

Simply a perfect continuation of the previous story, if you're reading the Horus Heresy you definitely you shouldn't skip these two.

The premise of this story is really good, I love the execution and how it conveys the point it wants to make.
