Plattdütsch🇧🇪 living and reading in Kölle ❤️🤍 I always like novels which involve exploration and adventure. Big fan of that myself too when I'm out hiking.

    Really powerful story, especially considering it's only a couple of pages. Don't want to say too much about it because you should just read it for yourself.

    Well-written and engaging. Really enjoyed the portrayal of the nails and of the unwavering loyalty to the astartes had in their Primarchs, even without knowing them.

    Just a very OK story. Does not particularly stand out in any way but it's not too long so you might as well read it if you're interested in the World Eaters.

    Even though I tend to struggle keeping my attention with audio stories which means it was at least somewhat engaging. I think the voice acting in this is really quite good and carries what at times can be some mediocre (but not sub-par) writing.

    It's funny how some of the most interesting stories in this grimdark setting keep being the ones which put hope at their centre. This story does a good job of showing this hope, especially in a human way, even from the transhumans.

    Like several other Horus Heresy stories, the premise is better than the actual story. Way too much of the story is just people giving other people orders.

    Wow, what a great story, I wish it was a whole novel. Beautifully written and the first time I truly have an idea of what Mars looks like exactly in 40K.

    The decision that Land Raiders and Land Speeders are named for an actual guy called Land might be one of the silliest decisions in all of Warhammer literature. I did thoroughly enjoy experiencing the story in reverse, very interesting choice that paid of.

    I enjoyed the personal brutality in this story, really hammers home how brutal of a conflict the Schism of Mars was.
