New York Times Bestselling Series After seven years of bitter war, the end has come at last for the conflict known infamously as the Horus Heresy. Terra now lies within the Warmaster’s sights, the Throneworld and the seat of his father’s rule. Horus’ desire is nothing less than the death of the Emperor of Mankind and the utter subjugation of the Imperium. He has become the ascendant vessel of Chaos, and amassed a terrible army with which to enact his will and vengeance. But the way to the Throne will be hard as the primarch Rogal Dorn, the Praetorian and protector of Terra, marshals the defences. First and foremost, Horus must challenge the might of the Sol System itself and the many fleets and bulwarks arrayed there. To gain even a foothold on Terran soil, he must first contend the Solar War. Thus the first stage of the greatest conflict in the history of all mankind begins.

“Void habitats of Uranus...“
Honestly, I'm far to immature to not enjoy Primarchs talking about Uranus, let alone an entire book with that planet as the naval perimeter of action.
It's a good book though, much more driven than the meandering end of the Horus Heresy novels. Hopefully the rest of the series follows this book's pace.
On the other hand, bolter porn is pretty boring. I don't know if any of it matters besides trying to carve some scenes for Sigismund. Boring action for a boring character.
It was such a slow burner from the get go but towards the end, I'd say 70 pages or so, it all started to come back together.
It started with such a broad but individual view or the various conflicts fought inside the solar system. All slowly but surely building the bigger picture, which is revealed by the end when everything falls into place.
