After seven long years of conflict, the Horus Heresy nears its end. But now, as the Warmaster Horus marches on Terra to rip his father from the Throne, the seat of the arch-traitor’s power lies empty. Cthonia, a world once dominated by brutal murder-gangs, is occupied by the Emperor’s praetorians—the indomitable Imperial Fists. For the Sons of Horus, this outrage demands a reckoning.

Faced with an ork invasion of Piscina IV, the 3rd Company of the Dark Angels believes the threat to be minimal.

But Scout-Sergeant Naaman knows just how dangerous this foe can be, and when a renewed offensive takes the Dark Angels by surprise, the orks swarm towards Kadillus Harbour.

Story
After seven years of bitter war, the end has come at last for the conflict known infamously as the Horus Heresy. Terra now lies within the Warmaster’s sights, the Throneworld and the seat of his father’s rule. Horus’ desire is nothing less than the death of the Emperor of Mankind and the utter subjugation of the Imperium. He has become the ascendant vessel of Chaos and amassed a terrible army with which to enact his will and vengeance. But the way to the Throne will be hard as the primarch Rogal Dorn, the Praetorian and protector of Terra, marshals the defences.

Publisher's Summary
In the aftermath of the Dropsite Massacre at Isstvan V, a battered and bloodied force of Iron Hands, Raven Guard and Salamanders regroups on a seemingly insignificant death world.
Fending off attacks from all manner of monstrous creatures, the fractious allies find hope in the form of human refugees fleeing from the growing war and cast adrift upon the tides of the warp. But even as the Space Marines carve out a sanctuary for them in the jungles of Pythos, a darkness gathers that threatens to consume them all.

Mediocre Story, Lackluster Characters
Voice acting is superb as per usual in this series. However; up until this book, the Horus Heresy series has been if not exemplary, then quite good. There are a couple other books in the first 30 that are also borderline duds, but this by far is the lowest. Its not BAD, but unless you are a hardcore Iron Hands fan, there is nothing overly exciting about this novel, and without really spoiling it, the whole story ends up going basically nowhere.

Exciting, hopeless
This books ending is striking, the payoff is controversial only for those who don’t understand the purpose of the book. The grim dark reality of 40k really shines through in this piece, very good.

Fantastic Performance
the performance of the narrator is brilliant. each character has their own voice making it easy to follow along. the story doesn't feel especially relevant as part of the Horus heresy narrative, but it is a great self contained story giving insight into the Iron Hands legion

Good voice actor, flat story
I would say through all of the HH books I have read. This book is like the Battle of Abyss. The characters are kind flat. But it did grant me a 40k feeling of the glimpse in warp and its power. Other than that, I love the voice acting in this piece, superb work.

Painful
The story is written too simply, character profiles seem to be copy pasted from previous novels with no additional flavour.
This story lack any form of passion that 40k fans are searching for, it's another unessessary addition to the Horus Heresy that will leave you hungry for your money back.

I didn't quite love this one.
I normally like 40K.. However this book was a struggle to get through until about the last quarter. It has a very strong and climactic ending but I found the middle section fairly difficult to get through. Overall not a bad book but one I wouldn't have a second reading through.

A Lovecraftian Tale of Machine versus Flesh
One of my favorite of the Horus Heresy books so far in the series, this book follows a group of Loyalists battling for survival on a Jurassic jungle world. Dinosaurs, Demons and Demigods fight it out to the last drop of blood in this epic struggle for victory.
