I know it's not 40k but shhh :P. So this is the first book in the fantastic Horus Heresy series. We follow for the main part,Captain Loken of the Luna Wolves and his story as his primarch Horus starts to stir shit up.
Maybe it's just me but every time i start reading one of these books it takes a while to get into knowing the characters, but once you do get into the swing of things you really will get attatched and you will end up loving the characters.
Dan Abnett takes the job of kicking this series off and manages to do so very will, he has a very, erm... educated way of writing. So it can feel a bit heavier at the start again but that is easily surpassed.
In my opinion you really should read these books if you're a fan of Warhammer 40k, as well as explaining alot of things you'll find in the other books, you will find about pretty much the defining event of the whole universe. So really it's pretty important.
Oh yeah a rating - 8.5/10
