AlbakiReads Editorial

The battle reaches the Solar System

As the Horus Heresy enters its final stages, Horus turns toward Terra, the seat of the Emperor’s rule. Before he can reach the Throneworld, he must overcome the defences of the Sol System, where Rogal Dorn marshals fleets and fortifications against the advancing Warmaster. John French’s novel frames the opening phase of the conflict as a struggle over access to Terra, setting the wider war’s ambitions against the strategic challenge of breaching its outer defences. The story places this clash within the larger Horus Heresy, with the fate of the Imperium and the Emperor at stake.

Book overview

Explore the final stages of the New York Times Bestselling Series The Horus Heresy in this fantastic miniseries, a must have for all fans!

After seven years of bitter war, the end has come at last for the conflict known infamously as the Horus Heresy. Terra now lies within the Warmaster's sights, the Throneworld and the seat of his father's rule. Horus' desire is nothing less than the death of the Emperor of Mankind and the utter subjugation of the Imperium. He has become the ascendant vessel of Chaos, and amassed a terrible army with which to enact his will and vengeance. But the way to the Throne will be hard as the primarch Rogal Dorn, the Praetorian and protector of Terra, marshals the defences. First and foremost, Horus must challenge the might of the Sol System itself and the many fleets and bulwarks arrayed there. To gain even a foothold on Terran soil, he must first contend the Solar War. Thus the first stage of the greatest conflict in the history of all mankind begins.
