Eatsbluecrayon reviewed Fulgrim by Graham McNeill (The Horus Heresy, #5)
Not as bad as Angel Exterminatus, so two stars!
2 stars
One of the worst depictions of Fulgrim and the Emperor's Children. Written very black and white and with palpable contempt for the protagonists. I don't know why Graham McNeill is writing any Emperor's Children-content. My best guess is he has some dirt on Nick Kyme and is blackmailing him. But that isn't explaining why he wants to write a Legion and a Primarch he so obviously despises? It's a mystery.
If you want to get a real glimpse in the minds of the Third Legion, I strongly recommend Josh Reynolds' "Fulgrim - the Palatine Phoenix"-novel (yes, same name). And to get a feeling for the fall of the Legion, read Chris Wraight's "The Path of Heaven" and Nick Kyme's "Imperfect".
