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.

READ 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?

Written by Dan Abnett.

5.0 out of 5 stars a satisfying conclusion
Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2024

While some might take issue with the lack of quantifiable feats and abilities from the Emperor and the general plot itself, I felt that the atmosphere was a fitting conclusion to an apocalyptic battle that has been built up towards over 17 years and dozens of moves and novellas. As a fan of 40k there will be things that frustrate you. The lore nerds in you will cry out. But at the end, it felt appropriate. The nightmare is over, and the dream will never be reclaimed, but it can be fought for. A new hell approaches inevitably, ten thousand years of terrible struggle and degradation as the faint concept of good becomes ever more elusive. But, in this day, here and now, the horror has subsided. An era has ended. Go into this with an open mind is what I advise, try and seek closure instead of hoping for something that will fit every preconception you have, and it will feel like what it should be.

The end and the death.

Can not believe it is actually over. What an amazing ending to a truly great series. Was pleasantly surprised at the detail in the final fight. There are certain things that will upset people but those folks can not be helped. Accept that some of the story lines are meant to have open ended interpretations and you will walk away happy. Abnett delivers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing conclusion to The Horus Heresy Series
Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2024

It's been an amazing ride!! Thank you to all the HH writers and support staff. This book series may go down as the greatest in history...of any genre. Abnett thoughtfully works his way methodically thru the most important event in 40K history, providing plenty of action while adding so many intricate details. Very pleased with Volume III, just wish it didn't have to end.

4.0 out of 5 stars It's good
Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2024

There's a longstanding critique of another SF author, Greg Egan, who writes science fiction with actual science in it (never happens in 40k), where his novels are basically little palimpsets to set his scientific stuff upon, and his characters are limp and flat.

I think there's some of this going on in this book, where the sheer literal _number_ of the characters means that the Primarchs and like, Loken and stuff are the only ones that keep their integrity in this gigantic oceanic mass of the overarching strength of the setting. Characters are little figurines to hang the grand gothicness of the setting on. Literal hundreds of characters, they can't get equal screen time - obviously the fight between Horus and the Emperor is central stage, but lots of the rest is forgettable.

Otherwise, it's a good book. I enjoy the Emperor remaining mysterious to the end, despite doing a lot of shonen anime stuff.

Awesome. Just plain awesome. The author does an admirable job of ending the numerous sub plots that were remaining this late in the game. It does seem that he was still a bit too wordy at times. Either way the story was great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dan stuck the landing
Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2024

Did I like every little part in the trilogy? No. But given the scope and constraints of the task, it worked. And having the final story in hand, it comes together as the final act of an epic saga that is essentially one massive story spread across three books.

For me it accomplished the most important task in keeping enough suspense in the story that even though I knew the rough of the conclusion going in, I was still unsure how we'd get there. That's the biggest part hitting just right.

I started the series in 2006, and was brought to tears 4 times while reading Part 3. It is an absolute masterpiece. He and the team deserved this victory-lap, and it was absolutely amazing. I'm really happy I got to be part of this journey. I can now say I was there, both times, "I was there the day Horus slew the Emperor."

As a collector I was glad to receive this copy in a box with paper all around to prevent any bumps to the book.

A great look and pretty good story.

All in all, it is worth to get (no spoiler) but you will like it.

Das Buch bildet den bemerkenswerten Abschluss des dreiteiligen Finales und gleichzeitig der ganzen Heresy-Reihe.
Die Fäden und Schicksale werden interessant und clever verwoben und manche Mysterien dennoch weiter im Unklaren gelassen. Von Anfang bis Ende war die Lektüre eine grosse Freude.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quelle apothéose ! What an apotheosis
Reviewed in France on January 30, 2024

Après la lecture des 64 volumes de l'Hérésie d'Horus et du Siège de Terra, Dan Abnett conclut d'une manière exceptionnel ce passage de l'âge d'or de la civilisation humaine au désespoir qui attend la galaxie 10 000 ans plus tard.
La tragédie est connue, les événements attendus mais le chemin demeure somptueux avec un auteur qui au fil des chapitres change sa prose en fonction des points de vue et des situations vécues par les loyalistes ou les hérétiques (ou serait-ce l'inverse ?).
Sa postface est une leçon pour tous ceux qui souhaitent écrire.

After reading 64 books of both The Horus Heresy and The Siege of Terra, Dan Abnett magnificaly concludes this transition from a Golden Age of Humanity to the grim dark prospects of a galaxy, 10 000 years later.
The tragedy is known, the events awaited, the path remains sumptuous. The author through the different chapters changes his prose according to view points and situations lived by loyalists and heretics (or was it the other way around ?).
His afterwords are a lessons for those who may wish to write.

Dan Abnett is a master. This was a suitably epic conclusion to a series I started reading back in the 2000s. It was so immersive when the end of the novel came I was surprised.
