Publisher's summary

After the horrors of Istvaan V, Horus declares outright war against the Imperium. In the shadows of the Emperor's Palace, powerful figures convene.

Their plan is to send a team of assassins to execute the arch-traitor Horus and end the war for the galaxy of mankind before it's even begun. But what they cannot know is that another assassin is abroad already, with his sights firmly set on killing the Emperor.

Worth your credit

Detail into the Assassinorum and very different, this title was worth it from beginning to end.

View of assassins

It’s a good look at all the different houses of assassins which is great. However the story itself is not great by itself.

Simply Amazing!

I haven’t even enjoyed a Horus Hersey book this much since I listened to Flight Of the Eisenstein! The narration was superb, and flowing from chapter to chapter. I found myself immersed in each of the characters, as Jonathan Keeble voiced them with such independence of each other. Truly a spectacular audible to download!

I feel giddy

Like a backstage groupie. Another tantalizing story to the HH.
I recommend it like I do ALL Black Library books.

Good side story for the heresy

Good side story. Does not advance the main plot. Can be skipped, but worth the listen if you like stories that do no focus on Space marines.
