Description

Legend tells of a foolhardy expedition, led by the radical Magos Telok, which ventured out into the unknown space beyond the Halo Worlds in search of the ‘Breath of the Gods’ – an arcane device with the power to unmake and reshape the very stars themselves. Thousands of years later, the ambitious Lexell Kotov musters his Adeptus Mechanicus Explorator fleet and sets out to follow in mad old Telok’s footsteps. With the might of the Imperial Guard and the Space Marines to augment his own forces, he searches for the hidden clues which will lead him to greatest power that the galaxy has ever known. But who knows what ancient perils may yet lie outside the Imperium and the dominion of mankind?

    This book is everything I have come to expect from the writing styles of Graham McNeill, a good read and riveting story, I can't wait till part two!

  • Needs to say "book one" on cover

    I doubt the publishers meant it as a bait and switch but that's how it feels. Other than that, fans of Warhammer 40K will get more of what they like. Suffering, death and war but EPIC suffering, death and war.

    would have given more stars if they had said it was a series.

  • Where's the rest of the story?

    The description is misleading, as the story ends much sooner than hinted at. It should have been called "Priests of Mars: An Unresolved Road Trip". Very disappointing way to end an otherwise solid book.

  • Great potential unfulfilled

    This was a good read, but there was virtually no resolution of any of the important conflicts. Last 30 pages was a real letdown.

  • Half a novel

    3
    By Jalaroc
    A little bit too florid even for a warhammer 40k novel and not as tightly plotted as it could be. It's obviously only the first part of the series because it leaves so many questions unanswered and plot points unresolved but there's no indication of a second book. Reading it was a guilty pleasure because while it wasn't particularly exciting, it was entertaining in its grandiosity.
