Best so far -  |
Horus Heresy: Legion Review |
|
If you're wondering if Dan Abnett lives up to Horus Rising, wonder no longer. This could be the best of all the Horus Heresy series. It is a mysterious and engaging novel, definitely worth a read. |

A short review - |
Horus Heresy: Legion Review |
|
I will keep this short, to do anything else would be to risk revealing to much of the plot. As other reviewers have mentioned this book concerns itself with the secretive Alpha Legion and their human followers, or subjects (depending on how you look at it I suppose). The book is one fo the best in the series so far and for me had perhaps the best ending of them all. |

A different perspective to freshen the series - |
Horus Heresy: Legion Review |
|
Legion is the first book in the Horus Heresy series that is not centered either on the perspective of a future Space Marine or current Space Marine. The story is told from the perspective of an Imperial Army detachment, created very similarly to the Space Marines.
Like most most reviewers have stated, this book does get off to a slow start, but that is only because this book introduces new terms that are specific to the this Imperial Army detachment. There isn't any straight forward explanation for the new terms, so the reader pretty much has to figure it out as they go. Dan Abnett does help the reader out along the way, just not immediately. Once the reader's got the terms' meanings down, there is nothing else hindering the reader's comprehension. Legion has alot to do with duplicity as it does with straight forward action scenes. The action scenes are few and far between but the events between the battles will keep any reader coming back for more. I highly recommend this book for readers of the Horus Heresy series and for Warhammer 40k fans alike. |

Slow start, fast finish - |
Horus Heresy: Legion Review |
|
I agree with several reviewers who say the book starts out slowly. I had this book waiting for me when I returned from a tour overseas and immediately started reading, only to put it down about two chapters in. I admit that I was disappointed, as it was not a typical Dan Abnett story which normally begins with a quick and furious pace. I was intrigued by the setting- a desolate planet called Nurth, target of the 670th Expeditionary Fleet, led by Lord General Namatjira, a martinet whose success, like many weak but overly ambitious commanders, had been secured through the skill and blood of his subordinate units and their leadership.
I resolved to pick the book up a few days ago and give it another try, and it did not disappoint as the story went beyond what has become the norm for most of the Horus Heresy books: the descent of the Legiones Astartes into the depths of Chaos and their ultimate betrayal of the Emperor of Mankind. Other reviewers have discussed the book's strengths and weaknesses effectively enough, so I will just say that despite the slow start, Abnett recovers well and finishes with a flourish. I must say that I did not see the ending coming, and the Alpha Legion's reasons for joining with Warmaster Horus Lupercal are the stuff of what Abnett's great writing and imagination brings to the series. He's does well with his depiction of the Imperial Guard units, and I think his work with the Gaunt's Ghosts series serves him well. I also found his take on the Alpha Legion interesting and compelling; they are one of the traitor legions that little is known about, but after reading this book, you'll have a greater perspective and depth of knowledge about the legion and its primarch, Alpharius (not to mention the neat twist Abnett throws in about the primarch that I won't spoil here). While a good book for the series, I don't feel it is 5-star worthy, but is nonetheless a worthwhile read. I like it infinitely better than the previous book in the series, "Descent of Angels", but is not quite as good as Abnett's first book in the series "Horus Rising", or Ben Counter's "Galaxy In Flames." |
