The Horus Heresy, Book 50

De: Nick Kyme

Narrado por: Jonathan Keeble, Saul Reichlin

Born of the fiery world of Nocturne, the Salamanders believe in self-sacrifice and the sanctity of human life.

Their father, Vulkan, was raised on this world, a blacksmith's son from humble origins who became a primarch of the Emperor of Mankind and forged his sons into a Legion. Their saga is one of heroism, betrayal, tragedy and rebirth. They have returned from the edge of extinction more than once, forever embattled, never bowed, the Legion and their primarch the epitome of defiance in the face of adversity. Unto the anvil, born of flame.

soldiers voices all sound the same, was hard at times and while i like the voices its confusing after a time

A great compilation

the characters are well written and the performance was excellent. over all I was captivated the whole way through.

excellence

best salamanders story yet, really dwells deep into the story line. I highly recommend listening to this story.

If I hear Vulcan Lives one more time I may die.

Salamanders and iron hands exist to make raven guard somehow more interesting. I personally wodh I could make ankkke a raven guard and disappear.

Some recycled material

I’m not a fan of recycling old stories. While I can understand that it was done in order to set the tone for the final piece, I feel like it was a missed opportunity to explore new perspectives within that older material.

disliked one of the narrators

I noticed that I started to get annoyed with Saul Reichlin's voice. Vastly prefer Keeble

mediocre, especially at this point

This story comes after another plot advancement and stands to provide a bunch of precrusade and istvaan stories. the sons of the forge novella is the only one that was worth while and even still pretty lower mid tier as far as stories are concerned. It does circle back to Regulus so, I guess there's something worthwhile.

good but long

overall good. the last 2 short stories are the best. interesting to see what happens to a few side characters.

unnecessary storyline

not even the great Johnathan Keeble could make this book worth listening to. After 20 painfully dull chapters of Saul Reichlin's nauseating voice and unenthusiastic tone, I heard the voice of Johnathan Keeble. I thought maybe there is hope after all. I was wrong. Although, Keeble does an amazing job narrating this compilation of tales. You can skip this book entirely and not miss a thing. this a fever dream memory of events that have already been covered in other books. it's just fluff and filler.

Great!

I thought that the ending was perfect! Don't skip this one and remember Vulkan lives!
