Summary

Having recovered from his grievous injuries, Warmaster Horus leads the triumphant Imperial forces against the rebel world of Isstvan III.

Though the rebels are swiftly crushed, Horus' treachery is finally revealed when the planet is razed by virus bombs and Space Marines turn on their battle brothers in the most bitter struggle imaginable.

3 books in and loving this series so far

As the third installment in the Horus Heresy series, Galaxy in Flames brings several story arches to a head in a dramatic and satisfying conclusion.

The book is also wonderfully narrated by Toby Longworth.

full on action from start to finish, a fitting end

loved the first book horus rising. wasn't sure on this due to mixed reviews.
Toby Longworth once again excels reading, making everyone unique and memorable.
lots more action in this compared to book one but I have the same complaint as others have had. horus seems to turn into the bad guy with very little detail or explanation as to why, now these answers an be found online etc but I'd hoped the book would have had it unfold better.
even so I thoroughly enjoyed this story and will be listening to the next book in the series.

Explosive fun

This series keeps getting better, the escalation of events and development of characters have been really solid throughout these first 3 books.

As the title would suggest, this story is quite action heavy which helps it move along at a good pace. This is once again enhanced by great narration.
