Vulkan Lives

The Horus Heresy, Book 26

De: Nick Kyme

Narrado por: Saul Reichlin

In the wake of the Dropsite Massacre at Isstvan V, the survivors of the Salamanders Legion searched long and hard for their fallen primarch, but to no avail. Little did they know that while Vulkan might have wished himself dead, he lives still...languishing in a hidden cell for the entertainment of a cruel gaoler, his brother Konrad Curze.

Enduring a series of hellish tortures designed to break his body and spirit, Vulkan witnesses the depths of the Night Haunter's depravity but also discovers something else - a revelation that could change the course of the entire war.

Difficult to keep track of characters

difficult to keep track of the characters. voice actor had the same voice for most of them.

A good story

The story itself was really good. I think the trouble some of these stories are running into is the comparisons to previous stories, and ultimately I don’t feel the need to hear about Isstvan anymore.

Enthralling

Very good story! No holds barred on Vulkan's Torture. His Circumstances become more and more bleak and his Fatalities become more and more gruesome. Vulkan's Pain is unmatched. I will listen to this multiple times.

Great Story. Not Sure What Other People Read

I see some people trashing it or saying confusing. I don't get it. Yes there are multiple stories. But, not to the point where it's confusing. This was such a great story. I liked the view of Vulkan. All the stories were well written. This has actually been one of my favorites.

",it's also a hammer"

I really enjoyed the story structure and how the main characters were portraid, big fan of the entire series overall. this book was one of the better ones

Best Book of the series so far

Nick Kyme wrote the damn he'll of this book and upbto this book in the series, this is the best written one to date!

Other reviews are not accurate

this story is not hard to follow, dont listen to other reviews. it changes scenes fairly often but it's not hard to notice that if you're paying attention

Ppl think it’s confusing?

If you cannot follow the story look at the names of the reviewers and you lol know why. I wonder why they don’t like it? Amazingly narrated and written. Great story for any fan of HH and Vulcan.

Great insight into the minds of two of the most interesting Primarchs (IMO) with compelling side stories.

Listened to this right after finishing the Thramas Crusade Storyline and it was perfect! I loved getting a deeper look into the minds of Vulkan and Konrad Curze, two of the most interesting and different Primarchs.
The side story was compelling and well placed to break up Vulkan and Curze’s playtime. I especially enjoyed the flashbacks to Isstvan V dropsite massacre from the view of the betrayed Salamanders.
4 stars for performance because while it’s well done some of the voices were very similar which was a bit confusing at first.

Wow! Plot twists and immersive writing

I really liked the shifting perspectives between the chapters. The Black Library could have easily chosen to do these two intertwined stories as separate works but I’m glad they didn’t.
