L'Hérésie d'Horus

Cybernetica

Mars must be purged
Soon after word reached Terra of Horus’s nascent rebellion, Mars fell. Rogue elements within the Mechanicum priesthood, stirred by the Warmaster’s promises of independence and prosperity, turned against the Imperium and forced the primarch Rogal Dorn to order an impenetrable blockade of the Red Planet. Now it has become clear that the corruption has spread too deep, and that more drastic measures must be taken if the Forge World Principal is to be reclaimed. Calling upon the expertise of those who witnessed the so-called ‘Death of Innocence’ firsthand, Lord Dorn and Malcador the Sigillite c...
4/5

Si un technoprêtre lisait Cybernetica, il suinterait probablement de l'huile. Cet novella est sans équivoque pour tous les fans du culte de Mars mais aussi pour tous les autres qui y trouveront un récit dynamique, orienté vers l'action et saupoudré de tonnes de références au Mechanic...

Retour au Mont Deathfire

Au cœur de l'orage
Le corps de Vulkan est exposé solennellement sous la Forteresse de Hera, mais malgré cela, la plupart de ses fils refusent d'admettre qu'il est vraiment mort. Après qu'il ait été miraculeusement sauvé par par les Ultramarines, Artellus Numeon, autrefois capitaine de la Garde du Brasier, exhorte les Salamanders ayant trouvé refuge sur Macragge de quitter l'Imperium Secundus afin de ramener le corps de leur primarche sur Nocturne, où il pourra être ressuscité dans les flammes du Mont Deathfire. Mais Numeon se débat avec ses doutes, et craint pour l'avenir de sa légion, alors que les ennemis d...
3/5

Deathfire commençait plutôt bien et affichait de bonnes intentions de la part de l'auteur. Malheureusement il me fut difficile d'occulter certains aspects du roman enterrant le scénario sous des non-sens (ésotériques parfois). Le récit fut mieux maitrisé que Vulkan est Vivant, certes...

Meduson

Driven almost to the brink of self-destruction by the death of Ferrus Manus, the Iron Hands now seek vengeance for the many horrors of Isstvan V. Gathering survivors from the Raven Guard and the Salamanders aboard any vessels capable of warp travel, they wage a new campaign of annihilation against the traitor forces across the galaxy — a campaign masterminded by legendary warleader Shadrak Meduson.

Artefacts

Before the massacre on Isstvan V, the primarch Vulkan returns to his forge on Nocturne to prepare for war against the traitors. However, in light of recent conflicts with his wayward brother Konrad Curze, he looks upon his personal armoury with a startling new clarity. If the wrath of the supposedly loyal Night Lords can be unleashed upon their own home world in a moment of unchecked rage, is it wise for any Legion to have access to such devastating devices as the Engine of Woes, the Unbound Flame or the Song of Entropy?
4/5

L’histoire de Vulkan est triste, mais avec Artefacts, Nick Kyme ajoute une couche d’ironie qui rend le personnage encore plus profond, comme si le destin avait voulu s’acharner. Avec son insertion parfaite dans la trame de l'Hérésie, de Vulkan mais aussi celle plus globale des Salamanders...

Ironfire

His body broken by the fall of the Schadenhold, the Iron Warriors warsmith Idriss Krendl is nonetheless far from defeated. Now commanding two of the mighty siege guns stolen from the forge world of Diamat, he seeks to redeem himself in the eyes of his primarch by bringing down the Great Selenic palace on Euphorus, and gather invaluable tactical data for the eventual assault on Terra. His plan? To utilise a strategy of his own devising – the glorious Ironfire protocol.
5/5

Avec Ironfire, Rob Sanders prouve qu'il est possible d'écrire peu et d'écrire bien. La philosophie Iron Warrior brille de milles feux à travers le Maître de Forge Krendl et l'auteur parvient à restituer avec fidélité la puissance de destruction massive couplée à la volonté ...

Blades of the Traitor

Heed the Warmaster's call
Across the war-torn galaxy, those sworn to Horus's cause shake the Imperium to its very foundations. Before the traitors' relentless onslaught, the wisdom of ages past is lost and forgotten, daemons hide amongst the common people and the warp's corrupting influence can be seen in almost every facet of the Heresy. For those who would become champions of the new order, there can surely be no redemption — only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods…

The Shadowmasters

Audio Drama : 13 min
The Mor Deythan stand apart from their brothers of the Raven Guard Legion – indeed, there are many who would claim that they do not even exist. Blessed with the same powers of stealth and subterfuge as their primarch Corax, the self-styled Shadowmasters may slip through any battlefield, unseen and unheard, until they are ready to strike. Now, as the Legion mounts its attack on the forge-temples of Atlas, Brother-Sergeant Chamell leads his warriors on a vital, clandestine mission to strike at the enemy’s heart…
0.5/5

Entre un rythme plat, des personnages sans développement, une action mal mise en scène, et une ambiance sonore d'une absolue pauvreté, il sera impossible de reconnaître une quelconque qualité à Shadowmasters. Cet audio drama devrait appliquer la même stratégie que ses héros et rester dans...

Corax : Soulforge

Victory is Vengeance
In spite of the corruption of Corax’s plans to rebuild his Legion after the Dropsite Massacre, the surviving Raven Guard remain defiant. Happening upon a stricken Word Bearers vessel far behind the front lines, they find evidence of a new alliance between the traitors and the forge world of Constanix II – with rumours of terrifying new war machines stalking battlefields across the sector, it is a threat too great to ignore. The primarch Corax must infiltrate the heart of the Mechanicum priesthood on Constanix if he is to win any allies for the war to come, though he will likely be forced to...
