Dropsite Massacre

The Horus Heresy

De: John French

Narrado por: Jonathan Keeble

A Horus Heresy Novel

Horus has revealed his dark plans, but nobody is prepared for just how far he will go. The force sent to end the Warmaster's rebellion doesn't realise they are heading towards a slaughter unlike anything the galaxy has seen.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

It's the deepest exploration so far of one of the most horrific battles of the Horus Heresy. You may know what happened during the Dropsite Massacre, but you don't know it all. It's far worse than you thought as the treachery is revealed.

THE STORY

Horus has rebelled against the Emperor by purging his and his brother's Legions, but what was supposed to be a secret act of murder has been revealed. In the Emperor's name, Rogal Dorn and Malcador the Sigillite dispatch the largest force of legionaries and primarchs ever assembled to end Horus' rebellion before it can begin.

But the loyalists, on their way to enact vengeance, do not know the depth of the betrayal they face. They will not be the perpetrators of a massacre, but its victims. The last hope of returning to the Great Crusade and the unity of the Imperium will die in the dust of Isstvan V, and those who survive will live in a new age of darkness.

Written by John French. Narrated by Jonathan Keeble. Runtime 11 hours and 27 minutes approx.

Quite good

You already know what happened. You’ve known it for years if not decades. So it’s quite a feat when your attention is held while the tail you know is laid out in detail.

And the details are quite good. The surprises, after all, are in the details.

LORE!

the amount of characters you get in this book is amazing! absolutely heart pounding the whole way through.

The characters were good

A great insight to some of the primarchs. A master plan that no one suspected and fills in plot holes from previous books. Highly recommend

good read

this is my first book introducing me to the 40K universe. from what I found online it said there were not a lot of books that are good for introducing this universe. but I found this book a good overall read I hade to Google some characters to get the bigger picture.

Remember Istvaan

Adds worthy perspectives to the Massacre. Kharn is present, and Angron has an interesting arc here also.
