Black Library presents the Masterworks – a curated collection of novels celebrating the very best science fiction and fantasy set in the worlds of Warhammer. It is the 31st millennium. Under the benevolent leadership of the Immortal Emperor, the Imperium of Man has stretched out across the galaxy. It is a golden age of discovery and conquest. But now, on the eve of victory, the Emperor leaves the front lines, entrusting the great crusade to his favourite son, Horus. Promoted to Warmaster, can the idealistic Horus carry out the Emperor's grand plan, or will this promotion sow the seeds of heresy amongst his brothers? Horus Rising is the first chapter in the epic tale of the Horus Heresy, a galactic civil war that threatened to bring about the extinction of humanity.

En commençant ce roman, premier volume d'une longue série se déroulant dans l'univers de Warhammer 40k, je n'imaginais pas y prendre autant de plaisir ! Il y a de l'action, comme je m'y attendais, mais aussi des personnages moins stéréotypés et plus profonds que ce que je craignais, ainsi que des passages passionnants sur des thèmes finalement à la fois actuels et universels : le pouvoir, la relation, et les liens entre les deux. Ce roman est vraiment une très bonne surprise, une première lecture très surprenante pour cette année 2018 qui commence.
J'espère que la suite de la série “Horus Heresy” sera du même niveau ! Si c'est le cas, elle risque de m'occuper une bonne partie de l'année !
Ugh... such ponderous dialogue
Save yourself a lot of time and skip this book. There is no logic to the plot for the characters action
