Joe Shire is on another level

Revisado: 04-05-23

So yeah the story is your ordinary wh40k story of betrayel and snobism but I tell you the narrator man… that soft deeeeeeep voice. I was like what is that. Couldn’t even concentrate on the story. Some rich bois father got the stabystaby and he was like crycry but happy at the same time and on on. But the voice. If I would have that kind of voice I would stick tube in my ears and just talk on the other end. I mean c’mon BL why is this dude just in 2 side line books (I leterally searched by narrator not author). I get it you haven your keablles an tobyes but just listen to this dude man. Fluffy silky storm in the middle of the biggest waterfall. Ok I’m out

Good read

Revisado: 01-22-22

The novel has the same illness as 90% of WH novels. There is so much fodder here you could chop a book in half and make it better. I love to read about RobotGullmyman and progrresion of the overall story of wh40k times but not with so much trash in beetween. I like to read about chapters and named wariorrs of imperium and this novel has that but is hidden in chapters and chapters of random stuff. First 6 hours of novel can easy be summerised in one sentence: Logan and his gang are retarded. And this is another pain of most of the novels in wh: all the arguments and points made by this characters are so shallow and retarded that a 14 year old imperium servitor could overthrow them. Yes I get it Logan is old he has a grudge but spacemarines are supposed to be uber humans in all aspects including thinking and rationalisation not just wolf smash. That is not caracter trait, it’s bad writing. All this is superb summed up in the book just before Gaius jumps in the wildes and has his monolog. His words are spot on and that is why his I have failed argument is so retarded after. And return to fodder: you have gaius ok, you have Gulmyman and the custodian (or were there 2), but then you have this tribal chic and a bunch of wolf bois I am supposed to remember but are all the same, some rebbelion on a orc ship… so much crap that it makes you angry that you spend your money an time on this. And then the title. The title is a moneygrab. We all know what wolftime is. We wanted to read about Russ return and his conforntation with his brother… It is another brutal milking of your fan base GW. Shame on you. Why did I say it is a good read. Becose it haves it’s moments that overshine the crap. I really wanted for Gaius to come before Logan and say what every reader wanted to hear: you are a joke and all of you are cowards that drink and talk all the time. Is it a 4 star book. Compared to Golden Compas novels yes it’s a 11star book but compared with let see a Lotr book. No noo negative eleventibillion stars. Still RobertGuyMyMan is one cool dude and I love to read about him and his character development over the overall timeline of wh40k

Brilliant read - detective, action thriller. can’t wait for book 3

Revisado: 09-19-21

The book is a wonderfull continuation of The carrion throne. It revolves around the theory that the Throne is failling. High action, detective-thriller that has impact on the big storyline (Emperor, high council of Terra, dark eldar…)I have read over 50 wh40k novels and Chris Wright is my favorite authors. He dosen’t include fodder in his novels as other authors do. He does not try to sell the minis thru random characters with no emotional atachment. Oh look at this awesame titan that is irelavant to the story but is awesame and you have to buy it.
The story gives great insight to the social and political structure of Terra in 40k. Things look overbirocratical and at the same time chaotic. The paradox of life on Terra. Cruel, violent and on the verge of collapse. The characters are deep and multilayerd. I love it. The story flows woderfull and you find yourself wanting for more.
There is some wierd consensus in the wh40k community of deodorant-free neckbeards that Chris Wright is no good. Do not be fooled by that. He is a writer that knows how to make characters interesting and how a person in wh40k universe would live - his drive, way of thinking, religious craving… he understands that in 40k universe almost everything is possible. His books are the only ones in wh40k that I reread.

Superb

Revisado: 08-31-21

I don’t usually re-read wh40k novels but I did it with this one. I read over 50 wh40k novels and this one is at the top. It’s a great add to inquisition already rich library of novels. The story revolves around the theory that the Golden Throne is failing and the chaos that that knowlage brings. It gives a deep insight to the state of Imperium and Terra in time around 40k. Complexity of hierarchy, orders, procedures… Just woderfull.
I read the other reviews and some of them gave me a look in the toxicity of this communitiy. It seems that there is a consesus between neckbeards with no deodorant that Chris Wright is a bad author so I feel the need to adress their critisims.
1. Crozius Arcanum - peole said they stopped reading when they saw that Spinoza got the Crozius. That that is impossible, unheard off, that worlds go to war for such relic. You know what is also unheard off. One of Emperor sons turns to Chaos, Inquisitor traitor, existents of the Warp… and look what happend to that. It is the wh40k where all can happen. Giving one hammer to someone is not that big of a deal. The novel saids that that was an honor beyond imagination and it is hevely implied that she has some deep connection with Rogal bois. She even has them on speed dail for Throne’s sake. In the novel Wachers of the throne custodian Valerian reflects how the Imperial Fists are known to not be attached to objects. Legions and chapters are verry different between one and other.
2. How could a radom infiltrte the Golden Throne and why didn’t the Custodians find him? Stupid critisism. They did find him, he didn’t came that near, it wasn’t a random but an Haemonculi with the help and plan of some really powerfull people and the palace is huge.
3. The author shoul research the lore? The arogance of this critisism. Author makes the lore and knows more than you.
4. Everyone somehow forgets what an inquisitor is. Super powefull and super rich. He can do and afford almost anything and the one that lives on Terra can have evan more.
It really saddens me when I read this toxic turd stuff.
The book is great. Characters are diverse and deep. I really wish for book 3. A great addition to Eisenhorn and Ravenor

Mortis (60ish novel of wk40 that I read)

Revisado: 08-22-21

Mortis sticks to the painfull formula of most of wh40k novels. It wants to be a novel but it wants to sell plastic toys. It has a great preset but it drags the story. This things do not work together. Don’t get me wrong is a good read. It follows a story that we all kind of know and we want to see if we really know it. But the thing is - this novels have too much fodder. And mortis is no different. There are those people in titans and warhounds and I didn’t remember any of them. Some doughter and a mother and a coward son or something. And there is a dude that walks in the dessert. Ok than. And a dude that is in the front trenches. And this two are in the other novels too. Fodder. All fodder. I want to read more about big E, Malcador, Dorn, Puertorico, Olanius (the dude is 45k years old, still waiting for him to meet Jesus), Gramaticus, Erda, Sinderman and Loken and Garro. Not those other radoms. Yeah I know I saw people ask for stories of normal folk in the great war. Majority don’t want that. Wa want to see the Khan retake starports, we want our glorious Sanguinius kick some deamon kugelsacks and finnaly we want to see Sanguinius spank Horus and succumb to black rage and attack the big E. We will still buy this books if they are shorter. Mortis is a good storry but it has to much vegetables and not enoug meat you know. You could delete 7hours of it easily and it woul feel compact and great. This goes for almost all the novels out there.
