THE STORY
In Horus Rising, his dream for humanity accomplished, Emperor hands over the reins of power to his Warmaster, Horus, and heads back to Terra. But will such incredible power corrupt Horus? In False Gods, the Great Crusade that has taken humanity into the stars continues. The Emperor of mankind has handed the reins of command to his favoured son, the Warmaster Horus. In Galaxy in Flames, having recovered from his grievous injuries, Warmaster Horus leads the triumphant Imperial forces against the rebel world of Isstvan III.

Where It All Began

‘I was there the day Horus slew the Emperor.’

These immortal words have been etched into the minds of every Horus Heresy fan since first reading the opening chapter of Horus Rising. It seems like a long time ago, and we’ve come so far since then, through the betrayal, the dropsite massacre, Mars, Prospero, Calth, Phall, the death of the primarchs and the fall of the Legions... but those words still have the power to send a shiver up your spine.

The opening trilogy of the Horus Heresy redefined what people expect from the Black Library. We delved into previously uncharted territory, exploring characters and events that, until then, had been the stuff of legends. It almost makes us jealous of those who are yet to read this great series. If that’s you, you’ve got an amazing journey ahead.

And now you can make that journey in style. Alongside this month’s release of Angel Exterminatus, you can also pick up the new collector’s editions of the original trilogy: Horus Rising; False Gods and Galaxy In Flames.

Among the features of these new editions are brand new author afterwords. These are particularly interesting for the original trilogy, as several years have passed since their release, allowing the authors to look back on a time when we weren’t sure people would want to read about primarchs and the birth of Chaos. How wrong we were. Here are a few of our favourite lines from the afterwords:

‘...Jim demonstrated how we should kill off the two missing primarchs by using a pair of skis, a pie from Bugman’s, and the low roof at the back of Forge World.’

- Dan Abnett

‘That was the biggest surprise for me: how much I liked Horus Lupercal…’

- Graham McNeill

‘...it was an exploration of how the gothic nightmare of Warhammer 40,000 came about.’

- Ben Counter

Solathen a écrit:C'est quand même un peu exagéré de "monter" Angel Exterminatus au niveau de The Opening Trilogy. Je sais que c'est commercial, mais les quelques critiques remontées de ceux qui ont le budget pour ce nouvel opus son pas aussi OOOOOOOOOOhhhhhhhh, AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH, Amazing,... que sur Thousand Sons ou The First Heretic, voir Fulgrim.
