Eidolon: The Auric Hammer

The Horus Heresy Series

By: Marc Collins

Narrated by: Toby Longworth

A Horus Heresy Audiobook

Lord Commander Primus Eidolon has claimed many titles along the annals of his infamy. He is the Exemplar and the Risen, the Soul-Severed, and the Auric Hammer. Now, fallen far from his primarch’s grace, he carves a path to Terra, where the culmination of Horus’ grand heresy awaits.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Eidolon has been a key figure of the Emperor's Children Legion from the beginning. Now, on the eve of the Siege of Terra, he’s fallen far from grace and is facing a long overdue reckoning for his many misdeeds during the Horus Heresy. Can he come to terms with his tainted legacy?

THE STORY

Coaxed and goaded by the wiles of the warp – and an entity whose whispered truths stretch even his credulity – Eidolon finds himself stranded around the world of Tatricala, where the ghosts of his past haunt every fated step. Now he must choose which life he wants to lead… and how much of his soul he is willing to sacrifice for it.

If Eidolon cannot banish his daemons, then they will surely take him for their own.

The third legion given character

Standard heresy story, but a good view into the mind of a character that has been a part of the lore for a long time. Eidolon stands out as the only true “leader” in the emperor’s children rather than being just an eccentric with followers like Fabius.

Good

Good and good and good Good and good and good Good and good and good Good and good and good but most importantly a beautifully good

Great narration and excellent expansion on story and lore

Really great. Not much expansion on emperors children lore so it’s nice to get such a storh

Eidolon needs a Model on the Tabletop

It’s seems kind of obvious, Eidolon has been in the setting from the start and this book proves that with a little bit of focus you can bring a character to life. I think the writer perfectly captured what Eidolon should be to the Emperor’s Children. A force that directs the excesses of the legion as he desires and following his own arrogant path. GW please give him a model.

Shows Emperors Children at the beginning of their fall to Slaanesh

Very good story of Emperors Children. Still held together but already starting to fray. Like the progression from beginning to end.
