Ilustration Supposing Books Know No Fear (The Horus Heresy #19)
Unaware of the wider Heresy and following the Warmaster’s increasingly cryptic orders, Roboute Guilliman returns to Ultramar to muster his Legion for war against the orks massing in the Veridian system. Without warning, their supposed allies in the Word Bearers Legion launch a devastating invasion of Calth, scattering the Ultramarines fleet and slaughtering all who stand in their way. This confirms the worst scenario Guilliman can imagine – Lorgar means to settle their bitter rivalry once and for all. As the traitors summon foul daemonic hosts and all the forces of Chaos, the Ultramarines are drawn into a grim and deadly struggle in which neither side can prevail.When war comes to Calth and set the planet aflame, the Ultramarines face annihilation against a foe who will use any means to settle their bitter grudge.

Original Post: http://thefoundingfields.com/2012/02/...The Horus Heresy is one of my favourite novel series, and bar a couple of exceptions (Descent of Angels, Fallen Angels and Battle for the Abyss), Ive enjoyed every single novel that the series had to offer me, from Horus Rising, the fantastic series opener, to Deliverance Lost, Gav Thorpes first entry of this mighty series, and the latest novel that is available in the series (in stores) to date. Know No Fear is the next novel on the market,The Horus Heresey finally gets back on track. It feels like the last 10 books or so in the series have done nothing to more the war forward and have dealt with meaningless side missions carried out by various legions and/or government administrations. This book moves the conflict between the forces loyal to the Emperor and forces loyal towards Horus forward and does it in a grand scale.I won't go into specifics but if you enjoy the Horus Heresy books or books that describe large scale combat on
Ultramarines have long stood in my book as "your generic Space Marine", in so far even that I've come to pick on them as boring or even sissy, because there's no Big Story behind them.They certainly became more BadAss with the new installment of the Horus Heresy, a lot more than their performance in Battle for the Abyss.For the occasion, Dan Abnett uses a style of writing and a style of organising the sub stories that is akin to a battle report. Everything is organised around the Calth Mark
The Horus Heresy is a great series and Dan Abnett is one of its best authors. He doesn't disappoint in this installment of the series. Looking for ships falling into planets, fights in space and betrayal on an epic scale this is for you. Abnett does a great job in continuing the story line, introducing new elements into the plot line and keeping the reader interested in the next one.
Know No Fear is VERY different to the usual styler for Dan Abnett. Full of turns, twists, and the occasional suprise. I suggest reading this book directly after Battle for the Abyss. You lose nothing in continuity, but gain a little in the actual Heresy, as it unfolds, rather than Legion jumping if you follow published order. Saying that, you could also read The First Heretic Before ALL other Horus Heresy books, as I believe that sets the Series up correctly.Any other Ideas on reading order?
I wasnt expecting a story about the Ultramarines to be interesting. Well played, Games Workshop, well played. Now I want to read about the Underworld War!
Look any book that makes Ultramarines cool is good in my view. I'm a Dan Abnett fanboy through and through.
