Publisher's summary

Driven almost to the brink of self-destruction at Isstvan V, the Iron Hands now seek vengeance for the murder of their primarch Ferrus Manus.

Gathering survivors from the Raven Guard and the Salamanders aboard any vessels capable of warp travel, these Shattered Legions wage a new campaign of annihilation against the traitor forces across the galaxy - a campaign masterminded by legendary warleader Shadrak Meduson.

This Horus Heresy anthology contains 10 short stories by authors including Dan Abnett, Chris Wraight, John French and many more. Also, in the The Seventh Serpent, Graham McNeill revisits the ragtag crew of the starship Sisypheum as they are drawn into a war of subterfuge against the Alpha Legion.

The last story was the best

Great book for iron hands fans but the end was a great way to finish it for filling in gaps

Wow!

This was a pretty solid adventure into the 40k universe. I was blown away by the pacing of the story, before I noticed I was inching up on 30mins left and was lamenting the ride was nearly over. It doesn't have a strong focus on the rest of the Heresy series, it's more like a spotlight being shown on the survivors of the drop site massacre and the effects on the greater narrative. Still, it's become one of my favorite books in the series. Give it a read if you love the Iron Hands.

Many boring stories mixed with nice ones

Anything involving Shuriken and Wheylin is instantly wonderful from excellent writing and charecter development. Many of the stories felt quite dull in comparison

Raise the Storm

If you’re an Iron Hands fan this is a brilliant work I enjoyed to the end I’m sad it actually ends in an awful salamanders novel.

Great pack of small stories

The book provides some great shorter stories about the shattered legions that fill in what they were dealing/going through.

It’s like red dawn but in space.

It was fun. But it’s not essential for your overall completion of the HH. Some of the stories drag on for far too long or shouldn’t be there at all.

Uncommonly bad

This is yet another short story collection, set in the aftermath of Isstvan and detailing the story of the Shattered Legions. Sadly, the overall quality is uncommonly poor, with several stories being more or less impossible to finish. Even the best stories in this collection only manage a dull mediocrity. This is unusual as I have found the other short story collections up to this point to have overall above average quality, there are usually some stinkers in every collection but also some true gems that pull the overall impression up. Not so with this one. Cannot recommend and will return.
