The Horus Heresy Book 53

War is unleashed on Beta-Garmon as the armies of the Emperor attempt to hold back the tide of Chaos in the last major clash before Horus reaches Terra itself - and the God-machines of the Adeptus Titanicus are on the front line.

Read It Because: The long-awaited and much-teased battle of Beta-Garmon is here, and with armies of Titans clashing in brutal no quarters combat, Guy Haley has crafted a remarkable tale.

The Story: Horus’ armada gathers, and he has defeated all enemies sent against him, even the Emperor’s own executioner. One barrier remains before he can strike for Terra and lay waste to the Emperor’s dream.

The Beta-Garmon system occupies the most direct and only viable route to the Solar System and Terra. To break it, Horus assembles a war host of incredible proportions and Titans in untold numbers. To lose here is to lose the war, and Horus has no intention of turning back. But the Imperium understands the importance of Beta-Garmon too. A massive army is arrayed, comprised of near numberless army cohorts and a mustering of Titans to challenge even the martial might of the Warmaster.

Titans fight against Titans as the God-machines of Loyalists and Traitors alike go to war. This conflict will be like no other before it, a world-ending battle that will determine the next phase of the war.

A God machine extravaganza

if you love giant robots destroying each other and cities and everything else.
and you also love Space Marines and the Warhammer universe you should buy this book

Beginning of the End

While not the last Heresy novel the breaking of Beta Garmon was so pivotal to the story! I am a huge fan of titan conflicts and the Blood Angels! So having them both star in this was amazing. Getting to see the different plot points come together from before like Horus’ wound from Leman Russ’ attack in the Vengeful Spirit. Very excited to read the conclusion of the heresy and the siege!!

If you like titans this is the book for you

Great buckets of delicious titan lore ooze from this work.
The narration is also on point.
Will ve re-listeling to this soon.

Great depth in many places.

I was rather disappointed about only 1 thing, when the HUGE Titan battle happened... it was too short. I would of expected like 2 chapters of that battle, instead it is far too simple, especially when other battles are explained fantastically.

Interesting for its titan lore

A good story, a couple of superfluous primarch chapters (needed more or none) but otherwise a good read

Love it!

This book is the epitome of total war. From Nanobot warfare all the way to Imperator titans, this book is war unhinged & unrestricted.

And a lot of personal strife and conflicts added too

flashbacks

overall I enjoyed the book. pay attention as you will find yourself in a flashback from time to time.

Hot Titian on Titan action

Amazing voice acting engages you fully into what it means to fight inside of a metal god of war. Voids go down and titans fall in one of the best warhammer novels I’ve ever listened to. The biggest Titan on Titan battle in the history of the empire of man takes place with two primarchs involved. If this doesn’t make you consider taking out a second mortgage to afford the Warlord model I don’t know what will.

Great listen for 40k fans

You don't have to be keeping up with any of the legislature to kind of pick up from here... but you should, at least a little caught up on the horse heresy to understand why this battle is important. other than that the narration was amazing the story structure was very intriguing.

First one I read in series

First on of the series I went to only cause titans but starting now with Horus rising
