Horus Rising (Warhammer 40,000 Novels: Horus Heresy) Dan Abnett
Publisher: Games Workshop

Horus Rising The Horus Heresy Series Black Library Written by Dan Abnett Review by Craig Heap. Each of his Horus He also has a tendency to expand the Warhammer 40,000 lexicon, adding ever-more phraseology that will be used in many future novels by other authors. As the tittle Seriously, the Warhammer 40k universe are huge.. The series chronicles what is potentially the most important event in the history of Games Workshop's Warhammer 40,000 universe. Here is Horus Rising is the first book of the Horus Heresy Series. If, like me, you enjoy Warhammer 40,000 but were avoiding Horus Heresy then get into it (though I suspect I was alone in this); if you enjoy sci-fi but haven't tried Black Library yet then here may be a good place to start. Horus Rising is the first book of the Horus Heresy series published by Black Library. Black Library novels are my guilty pleasure and my go-to option between reading dry editing texts and weighty tomes on constitutional democracy. And I, just couldn't get enough of them. The first three books of the Horus Heresy series mostly avoid becoming an exercise in stretching details of Warhammer 40,000 canon to novel length. Anyway, before I get to those 2 latest books.. What continues to amaze me about Mr Abnett is the breadth of his writing ability – whether it is a Horus Heresy novel, a Gaunt's Ghosts novel, a Warhammer fantasy novel, or something entirely of his own creation (e.g., Triumff): the most consistent trait is that it is always of extremely high quality. Civil war known as the Horus Heresy. As the debut novel in the series, Horus Rising doesn't just have to introduce the characters and context that the other authors have to work with, it also has to present the most in-depth look we have ever been permitted to glimpse of how the Imperium was before the schism. For the Warhammer 40K fans out there – and those who look forward to when grunts wear armor that will power itself instead of weighing you down. When it was over the God Emperor lay in a vegetative state and the Imperium had become a paranoid and xenophobic culture. It may not be your every day sort of hobby, but this.
