Alpharius is one of my favourite characters in the 40k universe and its great to see him get a voice. One of the fun things about Alpharius, of course, is that you can't trust that voice, so an author can have fun without butting up against the existing fluff. This has come across well in Brooks' novel, which is a gleeful space opera that flys around the founding days of the Imperium throwing doubt on all sorts of knowns, messes with the known unknowns, and gives us some new unknown unknowns too!

Gehört zur ReiheThe Horus Heresy (Primarchs 14) Warhammer 40,000 (fiction) (The Horus Heresy, Primarchs 14)
Book 14 in the much loved series, "The Horus Heresy: Primarchs" Legends abound of the glorious - or infamous - deeds of the Emperor's sons. Yet almost nothing is known of Alpharius, the most mysterious of them all, for the Lord of the Alpha Legion is unparalleled in the art of obfuscation. Such are his gifts of secrecy and deceit that even his rediscovery has remained an enigma - until now. But when the tale comes from the serpent's mouth, where does the deception end and the truth begin? Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

Same as Valdor this book brings us back to the very start - it is end of Unification Wars, and young Primarch will soon start his lessons - taught not only by the Emperor but by his right hand. Role of these primarchs, their legion, tactics and the values they cherish they all have their place in the Imperium of Man. They are shadow-spear, blade in darkness - threat to all insurgents and enemies of Imperium in general - human or otherwise.
To say more would be to ruin the experience for other readers. The amount of lore is ... breathtaking. I just cannot wait for new books in this series. What I will say is that XX Legion is now one of the legions I am truly interested in. Views and analysis of their brothers, that scene with Valdor ...... man :)
Highly recommended to all fans of Horus Heresy (and W40K lore in general). I stand corrected, if you like stories of heroes bigger than life and covert wars in the future you need to read this. ( )
