Nemesis

The Horus Heresy, Book 13

By: James Swallow

Narrated by: Jonathan Keeble

After the horrors of Istvaan V, Horus declares outright war against the Imperium. In the shadows of the Emperor's Palace, powerful figures convene.

Their plan is to send a team of assassins to execute the arch-traitor Horus and end the war for the galaxy of mankind before it's even begun. But what they cannot know is that another assassin is abroad already, with his sights firmly set on killing the Emperor.

View of assassins

It’s a good look at all the different houses of assassins which is great. However the story itself is not great by itself.

Story was good, production has issues.

The story was good but the way it was produced made you have to back up often as there are 3 story’s going at once and story reader would not pause between one sentence and another. So it would make no sense as times as he would run story thread into each other with so much a as breath. Topic A into B into C without pause or shift in voices or anything. Made it hard to listen to at times.

Good side story for the heresy

Good side story. Does not advance the main plot. Can be skipped, but worth the listen if you like stories that do no focus on Space marines.

Simply Amazing!

I haven’t even enjoyed a Horus Hersey book this much since I listened to Flight Of the Eisenstein! The narration was superb, and flowing from chapter to chapter. I found myself immersed in each of the characters, as Jonathan Keeble voiced them with such independence of each other. Truly a spectacular audible to download!

I feel giddy

Like a backstage groupie. Another tantalizing story to the HH.
I recommend it like I do ALL Black Library books.
