Leman Russ: The Great Wolf

Primarchs: The Horus Heresy, Book 2

De: Chris Wraight

Narrado por: Jonathan Keeble

Many are the sagas of Leman Russ, Lord of Winter and War, most fearsome of the Emperor's primarch sons. At the height of the Great Crusade, his Space Wolves fight to bring the rebel world of Dulan to compliance.

Enraged by the defiance of the tyrant Durath, Russ has pledged to strike him down personally - but his brother Lion El'Jonson of the Dark Angels advises more caution. With the might of two Legions arrayed against Durath, tensions nevertheless run high, and the rivalry between the Wolf and the Lion threatens to engulf them all.

awesome

loved this book! part of the book was a bit slow but overall it was great and the end of the book was epic and awesome :D

Capital between Russ and the lion. epic.

I love the whole book. awesome story! well read. very memorable. excellent book for both beginners and veteran 40K fans

Fun brotherly rivalry

I don't know what this book would have been if Lion El wasn't in it, but this book is now a great brotherly rivalry story. Ending was great.

What makes a Barbarian king

This Novella is a framework story built around the making of a BLOOD Claw. The first blood claws of the Chapter rather than the Legion. An already interesting time frame to set a story in the Warhammer 40k lore. The story within that is told about the Space Wolves during the great crusade.

The Story set within the great crusade really establishes the culture of the legion during the time of Leman Russ. Still amongst the great companies are members from Leman Russ's war host during his time as a mortal man, before the coming of the Imperium to Fenris. The relationship between Russ and those members are different than the relationship of him and the space wolves turned as children. it's great to hear all those interactions.

I loved the Narration! Had I read this novel, I would have struggled with the name's, but just the pronunciation of the Norse words was great. Also, the voices for the various characters in the story are instantly recognizable and distinct.

This is my second audible book and I'm starting to fancy them.

Good even if you dont like Spc Wlves or Drk Angels

I'm not a fan of all that's written about Space Wolves, and ESPECIALLY all the secrecy crap with Dark Angels. But this is a good book that is not filled with Bolter Porn, and mostly just good character development for Russ and the Lion.

Great story.

Starts off slow, and is kind of like, I want to know about Russ, but it actually sets up the story very well. Very good insight into the sons of russ. Voice actor is excellent, he can really drive home the excitement in the story.

Excellent work

Another grand piece of work from both Wraight and Keeble. An especially insightful and enjoyable look into the relationship between the Wolf and the Lion.

The story of one of the most epic slap fights

One of the better portrayals of Leman Russ and the HH era wolves. Both Russ and the Lion come across as awesome but flawed characters. I'm getting a little tired of the genetic flaw troupe coming up in so many horus heresy books but it's not the focus of the book. As usual for BL the narration is great.

Fenris Hjolda

A great amount of character development for leman russ and the lion. The beginning grips you and holds you steady as the tale is told. The narration is great, as always with keeble. I feel at this point i just won't even need to mention his prowess. I don't like much of the space wolves writing, even as a fan of the wolves they do tend to come off a bit cheesy, and all powerful. This book gives the story of russ and a pivotal moment in his character. I can't say too much more without spoilers. If you are a fan of space wolves, or perhaps even more so you aren't try it out. It may give you some insight into the flaws and virtues of the wolves, and the reason they are what they are.

Narration on point

If you love space wolves you’ll love the team up of author and narrator. Mr Sacramento brings life to the story in every chapter.
