A Great War is coming, and it will engulf the Imperium of Man. The Space Marines of the Alpha Legion, the last and most secretive of all the Astartes brotherhoods, arrive on a heathen world to support the Imperial Army in a pacification campaign against strange and uncanny forces. But what drives the Alpha Legion? Can they be trusted, and what side will they choose when the Great War begins? Loyalties are put to the test, and the cunning schemes of an alien intelligence revealed, as the fate of mankind hangs in the balance.

this was my second attempt to reading it, and ended up finishing it. first time I couldn't follow what was going on, lost interest, and dropped it.

Tried again months later and finished it. Ended up being a good one, just a slower burn up to the end, which was worth it.

It follows the imperial army mostly with some alpha legion on the side for a good first half of the book, then the second half was when things started to unravel.

Lots of people say that this book can be skipped but I say its worth the read. Its pretty much gives reason to the actions of the alpha legion.

The story can be be quite complicated at the start but once things start unraveling it becomes a fantastic read.

Hard to get into but is worth the trouble

Point form review

-humanized space marines (but they still feel super human)
-expanded on how the great crusade worked
-intrigue and backstabbing abound
-female characters feel a little like arm candy for the male characters

Would recommend for people who are interested in Warhammer in general and for long time fans. Very entertaining.

Intrigué and nuance in the 30th millenium
