The build up is far too long, in my opinion, even though the payoff is incredible. If I ranked just, say, the last one-third of the book I would give it a 4 or 5 star rating. You really have to stick with a lot of what seems to be unnecessary stuff to get to that point though. ( ![]() A good book, but not at all what I expected. Need to work on tamping down what I think a book will be, but in this case this book was billed as "A Thousand Sons from the Space Wolves point of view", and I was very much looking forward to it. About a third of the way in I realized this was a very deep, very introspective book on the Sixth Legion and their motivations leading up to the last 40 pages or so where the battle of Prospero is finally revealed. Having to go back and study some of the difficult parts to read REALLY slowed my reading down. Good premise by Abnett, but fair execution. Reading the last 40 pages was great, but I was also thinking "where was THIS for the last 400 pages?". Still enjoyed the Space Wolves back story, though. Although set in the standard Warhammer 40k wargaming world from Games Workshop, this book and the books in the Horus Heresy milieu takes us almost 10,000 years into the past where Horus rebels against the Emperor. In Prospero Burn, Abnett gives us a tale of the Space Wolves, the Executioners of the Space Marines and the Imperial Conservator Karl Hawser who travelled to their home world to investigate the strange society there. The Wolves take him in and he learns that not all that looks savage is necessarily as savage as it looks and he finds that his life had been a lie almost as far back as he could remember as he and the Marines are manipulated into creating the ultimate rift... inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
