Publisher's summary

A Great War is coming, and it will engulf the Imperium of Man. The Space Marines of the Alpha Legion, the last and most secretive of all the Astartes brotherhoods, arrive on a heathen world to support the Imperial Army in a pacification campaign against strange and uncanny forces. But what drives the Alpha Legion? Can they be trusted, and what side will they choose when the Great War begins? Loyalties are put to the test, and the cunning schemes of an alien intelligence revealed, as the fate of mankind hangs in the balance.

Great suspense!

I loved this story. It's a great part of the Warhammer 40k universe. I also love anything written by Dan Abnett.

I am Alpharius

Great rare look into the mindset of the Alpha Legion and what caused them to go "rogue".

One is the best books on the series so far

This is a great book with excellent voice acting. Whilst there are some plot holes, out of the first seven books in the HH series it’s definitely one of the best.

so so

I'm newer to these novels and while i was absolutely in love with them up untill the previous novel descent of angels, and legion seem to fall a bit flat in comparison to the first 4 novels, i love Alpha Legion and this was a decent book to highlight them, but i just felt a little disappointed with the overall writing and pace of the book.

Wins in the end

It a big of a slog for a while. Until nearly the middle of the book. But it really picks up and has a very interesting conclusion. It’s part of the Horus Heresy serious so I think you already know if you’re going to read it or not. 🤷🏻‍♂️ But a heads up may help.

Tied with Fulgrim...

...for best in series thusfar. Timson is a fantastic reader and compliments Abnett's style with skill and flair.

Alpha

Perfect tale of Alpha Legion. Convoluted. Confusing. Don't know who is on which side at the end.
