Heralds of the Siege is a great collection of short stories, each diving into a different legion or faction within the Horus Heresy timeframe. Fleshing out that time period seems like it has endless possabilities, and the authors really explored what was going on before the Siege of Terra ramped up. I will admit to bouncing between the book and the internet; I'd finish a story, and then, interest peaked, have to go dive into a character or faction that I didn't know as much about. Heralds of the Siege did a great job of expanding my WH30k understanding and interests, and I look forward to continuing within the Horus Heresy series.

Heralds of the Siege is a short story collection done by some of the most well known authors of the setting. Being so late in the Horus Heresy series it covers a wide range of topics and vantage points that one can get a bit lost in if not clued up on all the current events. Some stories also lead up to the actual Siege of Terra happenings that is part of a different series. Non of the stories are bad, just a word of caution to not pick this up with no prior knowledge of what has gone before. I thank Black Library and Net Galley for giving me a chance to read this ARC.

An excellent collection of Horus Heresy short fiction. Many of these I'd read before, but it was nice to revisit them in the context of the series as a whole and further reading.

The Horus Heresy series remains one of the most impressive, large-scale shared-universe SF stories ever told. Very highly recommended.
