A great continuation of the series, though not as strong as the first. Horus’ fall to chaos was a little too sudden and contrived. I mean, we all know Horus falls to Chaos, it shouldn’t be played as a “will he-won’t he?” Anyway, I liked this book as much the second time ‘round. Looking forward to the rest of the series.

Okay this one kept me on my toes! I really enjoyed the cult theme and conflation of power and religion. I stayed nervous reading though because it seemed like people were dying left and right and the gross factor was up 10x. The big bad space general's dream sequence was fun too
