Angron: Slave of Nuceria

Primarchs: The Horus Heresy, Book 11

By: Ian St Martin

Narrated by: Jonathan Keeble

A Primarchs novel

The Twelfth Primarch has been found! United with the War Hounds - now renamed the World Eaters - the gladiator Angron gives his sons an ultimatum that will change their very nature, and their destiny.

Listen to it because:

You've seen the immediate aftermath of Angron's recruitment into the Imperium in the short story 'After Desh'ea' - now Ian St. Martin brings us the details of what happened next, and the World Eaters' adoption of the Butcher's Nails.

The story:

As the Emperor travels the galaxy at the head of his Great Crusade, few events are as important as rediscovering his scattered sons, the Primarchs, and bestowing them as the masters of their Legions. United, a Legion becomes a reflection of its Primarch, both in his strengths and his flaws. For the Twelfth Legion, once the War Hounds and now the World Eaters, the line between strength and flaw is almost impossible to separate. Placed in command of a Legion he does not want, in service to a father he cannot forgive, Angron gives an ultimatum to his children, one that will set them down a path that they can never return from. So desperate for his acknowledgment, will the World Eaters follow their father and cast themselves in his broken image, or will they resist? And will any of them ever learn who their father was truly meant to be?

Written by Ian St. Martin. Performed by Jonathan Keeble.

Great

Sheds a lot of insight about the legion and it's primarch. The cast of characters are great, and the voice acting is superb

The Story of the World Eaters

A friend of mine told me about the book so I already knew what happened, but it was a lot better than I thought it was going to be. It really has a lot of character to the world eaters. Not quite a must read for the Heresy like Horus Rising or Master of Mankind but it’s definitely worth a read.

exceptional

just a spectacular take on Angron and the world eaters. as good a primarch book as there has been.

great story, excellent reader

First, Keeble is a marvelous reader. Every one of the books that he performs for Black Library makes the book that much better. Tone is accurate, he performs how the author wrote the pieces. If the author says slurred, then Keeble's character slurs. That sort of professionalism is too rare.

St. Martin doesn't write a lot for the Horus Heresy, but this book captured the soul of the old legion and its corruption at the hand of its newly founded primarch.

The only drawback is that the story jumps about a bit at times. You can piece together what happens, but the story could have benefitted.

Good look into a broken demi god

Wonderful insight into a primarch whom could have been so much more then a butcher
