Review of 'Fulgrim' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Good read! Admittedly Graham McNeill can be a mixed bag. I generally like him though.

Fulgrim’s downfall was much better written than Horus’ and is far more tragic. The characters in this book were a little same-y and of course I wish there was more Tarvitz, but the descriptions of the Slaanesh corruption were top notch. My biggest complaint is that there were a couple references to gender essentialism in some of the remembrancer sections, which were pretty eye-rolling, even if you’re not into gender theory.

This is probably a three-star bumped up to a four because I love Slaanesh stuff.
