Summary

Siege of Terra Book 8, Part 3

It all comes down to this final confrontation – the Emperor versus the Warmaster. The father versus the son. After 63 novels and a slew of short stories, omnibuses, audio dramas, and more – this is the End and the Death.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

The Horus Heresy series reaches its dramatic climax. After years of civil war, the Emperor and Horus clash aboard the Vengeful Spirit in an epic battle of blades, wits, and wills. See how the greatest conflict of the age plays out, and follow fan-favourite characters from across the saga as they desperately try to influence the outcome.

THE STORY

The Great Angel, Sanguinius, lies slain at his brother's hand. Terra burns as reality itself unravels, and the greatest bastion of civilisation teeters on the brink of annihilation.

Desperate defenders gather, banding against the rabid traitor hordes. The Hollow Mountain, host to the pilgrims of Euphrati Keeler, is one of the last redoubts held by the Dark Angels while the unclean host of Typhus lays siege. Malcador the Sigillite sits ablaze on the Golden Throne, trying to buy his master more time. But time is running out...

Guilliman races across the stars to reinforce the Throneworld. Will he return to ashes, where a Warmaster of Chaos has ascended to godhood, or will the Emperor have triumphed? And at what cost?

The Emperor Must Live

Dragged on quite a bit. Too many cuts between povs. We don't ever stay with one character long enough to get into whatever they're doing.
But it was pretty good. The Emperor vs Horus, at least the first and middle part of it, was incredible. The Emperor getting a second wind four consecutive times was pretty stupid. I would have preferred if Abnett made The Emperor stronger and perform better in the fight, and be beaten down before getting back up only once. As it is, the battle feels quite one-sided in Horus' favour and like The Emperor gets by on luck as His son continuously spares him and makes stupid mistakes.

Utter perfection

I can’t imagine how tough it must be to cap off something as long, complex and beloved as the Horus Heresy lore but Dan Abnett absolutely blows it out of the park. An utterly brilliant showstopper.

Held me from start to finish

The grand finale of the Horus Heresy, while there is a lot of things I would have liked to hear, confrontations I wonder how would go, this is regardless a fulfilling ending to the epic tale.

The end of an Epic Saga

A truly epic end to a great series. The Siege of Terra did not dissapointed this listener. The narration was spot on, and the story filled with some unexpected twist despite the end being known.

Epic end battle

Battle between Horus and Emperor almost trippy, very well done, very sad at times, characters that have lived over a decade in the HH series meet their final end. I’ve listened to all of them from the first to this one and it’s taken me years of my life. Worth it. Definitely the Magnus opus of Dan Abnett.

OKI. Mostly.

some chapters are poorly recorded, too much wavy breathing. It stands up too much in my opinion ( 15 words minimum ).
