About this listen
A Horus Heresy novel
Hero. Villain. Protector. Destroyer. Loyal. Fallen. Luther embodies the duality at the heart of the Dark Angels – but what is his story? Prepare to find out....
Listen to It Because
Get new insights into one of the key figures of the Horus Heresy, who shaped the destiny of the Dark Angels for 10 millennia, in a new novel by the master of First Legion fiction, Gav Thorpe.
The Story
Knight of the Angelicasta. Saviour of the Lion. Grand Master of the Order. Lord of the Dark Angels. Protector of Caliban. Chaos Heretic. Destroyer of Caliban. Sorcerer of the Abyss. Arch-traitor. Dark Oracle. First of the Fallen.
Can one man be all of these things?
Kept alive and imprisoned for 10,000 years, Luther is the curse and the salvation of the Dark Angels made manifest. None are so close to the heart and history of the Chapter as the man that embodies all that was great about the First Legion and all that is shameful about the Dark Angels. In his story is writ the tale of the Horus Heresy and the fall from Enlightenment in a single long life. Glory, honour, pride, shame and betrayal weave a tapestry of truth and lies that the Supreme Grand Masters of the Dark Angels have sought to understand and unbind across 10 bloody millennia. Luther claims repentance for his past deeds, but was it his sins that condemned the Chapter to its secretive fate, or should warnings from history have been more closely heeded?
Written by Gav Thorpe. Narrated by Andrew James Spooner.

Great getting an insight into the mind of Luther, and how the Dark Angels go from reasonable to pure zealots

Good listen
Really enjoyed this expansion of the lore behind Luther. Now the lion has returned this actually has some great little story beats that would be great to see expanded upon in future.

Pre-Imperium Caliban is an exceptional setting
Performance was fantastic, Caliban prior to the arrival of the Emperor provides a great setting that could easily tell a hundred tales in alone, I do hope it's explored more in the future.

Very good
Terrific story and wonderful narration. Each chapter a gripping tale. I much prefer these types of Warhammer books, I can't abide all the boring space marine battles that feel so insignificant. This book tells you of Luther and his adventures. Worth it!

Dark Angels doing what they do best!
Such a good story. Listened to it in one. Great to hear how they have changed over the Millenia.

An intresting point of view from Luther.
The narrator really draw you in to the story and almost make you feel pity for Luther.
A great listen for Dark Angels fans.

Mostly good, but a bit woke.
Overall very enjoyable and well performed, but GW are once again putting ESG money above realism with way to many girl bosses and primitive deathworlders treating women and men the same like they're all modern metropolitan champagne socialists. Hearing every third night and leader turn out to be a woman is simply immersion breaking when you're dealing with warfare and preindustrial civilisations with extremely high death rates, as if women and their miraculous ability to create new humans is worthless compared to having them act like men.
