About this listen
After the razing of Prospero, Magnus the Red spirited the Thousand Sons away to the aptly unnamed Planet of the Sorcerers, deep within the Eye of Terror.
Removed from the concerns of the galaxy at large and regarding the Warmaster's unfolding Heresy with cold detachment, he has dedicated his hollow existence to the preservation of all the knowledge once held in the great libraries of Tizca, should mankind ever seek such enlightenment again. But his sons can see the change in their primarch - he is a broken soul whose mind and memories are slipping away into the tumult of the warp.
Only by returning to the scenes of his greatest triumphs and tragedies can they hope to restore him and allow the Crimson King to be crowned anew by the Ruinous Powers

A cinematic experience
Best book so far. It feels like it just keeps getting bettet everytime I go through this book. The book feels like a movie, no dull moment. The pace is great and the story is well detailed.

Fantastic read
I always felt sad for the Thousand Sons as they were loyal and got screwed over and have always wondered why Magnus decided to fight his father.
Wonderfully detailed story about Magnus and what makes him tick.

Another classic from the Horus Heresy series.
Really enjoyed this, great story and great insight into the Heresy Ahriman and Magnus. There were times it felt like it was a bit meandering, but everything snaps back to an explosive climax.

Good story
A good story really well told. Its a bit one sided with the thousand sons being competitively easy to dispatch and inferior to the other astartes, which given this is a thousand son specific book, is a bit annoying. But definitely worth a credit.

Great......
.....but also flawed. Definitely not one to miss in the Heresy. Great narration as always. Story just suffers slightly in the middle before building to a fairly swift resolution.

Wonderful
The story of Magnus and the thousand sons is a favourite of mine in the WH40K universe and Graham McNeill's superlative imagination and writing brings it entirely to glorious life. the voice performance was superb also, I admire these performers greatly.

Good story though a little frustrating.
While it IS a sequel to thousand sons and prospero burns it is a very slow one. Not a bad book but it didn't grab me as much as it could have. Also Keeble gets some of the names wrong and pronouncements seem off.
