Los Marines Espaciales son súper-guerreros creados por el Emperador de la Humanidad y los defensores últimos de la raza humana. Son intrépidos, devotos y fueron dotados de una sorprendente fortaleza física y psíquica.
Pero incluso estos guerreros no son infalibles, y algunos se han apartado del aura del Emperador y han jurado lealtad a las oscuras fuerzas del Caos. Ahora tendrá lugar una batalla que enfrenta antiguos hermanos, Marine Espacial contra Marine Espacial, en su esfuerzo por destruir al falso Emperador.

This was a hard slog. The Skull Harvest was well-paced, stupid nonsense with poor characterisation but lots of blood. Gauntlet Run was dull. Renegades was crap. Honour Among Fiends wasn't bad. Fires of War was unreadable. The Labyrinth was kind of ok but seems to exist in a different IP. Headhunted wasn't bad but needed an editorial polish. And They Shall Know No Fear was crap too. Nightfall was pretty good actually. One Hate was crap as well, a rare wet fart from ADB. In general I would say avoid this collection. ( )

Outstanding collection of short stories by various Black Library authors on the grim stories of the Space Marines. And They Shall Know No Fear...is the standout in this collection. Recommended for any WH40K fan..... ( )

“Heroes of the Space Marines” is collection of stories based around champions of both loyal and traitor Adeptus Astartes. Here we find Imperial, Salamanders (can’t wait for the Salamander trilogy – story in this collection is a true teaser), Chaos Space Marines (weird and terrifying bunch) and my favorite – Deathwatch of the Inquisition, Special Forces within already elite combat force.

Fight scenes are great but so are the characters – from merciless Chaos captains seeking ever more power (especially interesting is story of Sons of Malice) to devout Chaplain of the loyalist Crimson Fists on a mysterious mission.

All in all great collection – Space Marines are shown with all their fears and doubts and [of course] unquestionable commitment to the cause (no matter if they are loyal Imperial subjects or if they serve the forces of corruption).

Recommended, will keep you glued to the last page. ( )
