Fallen Angels by Mike Lee
3.0
Like many of the Horus Heresy books Fallen Angels has a great blend of action, drama, and characters. Despite some extremely enjoyable moments; however, I don't think it quite fully delivers.
The first half is a little slow, as the split narratives of the characters are slowly revealed. The plot vamps up, and gets really exciting; however, it ends in a very quick fizzle, which was exceedingly unsatisfying.
Part of the issue I think with this particular book is it is really 2 separate stories which while related never tie fully together. This forces both stories to wrap up much faster then they needed.
Overall not a bad addition to the series, but not the most enjoyable either.
