Jonas Stromclaw Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Battle for the Abyss is not.... erm.... held in high regard by most people who read it. Bad book is bad.... That is quite possibly the most diplomatic statement I've ever heard concerning Battle for the Abyss. Wilhelm, you deserve an ale for that. Let me be a little more blunt. Its full of plot holes, is non sequitur to the rest of the Horus Heresy series, consists of entirely flat, one sided characters, casts Ultrasmurfs as being the most uber awesome legion, and makes the wolfguard look like an emo git. The only saving grace was the World Eater guy, who wasn't quite as one dimensional as everybody else. Believe me, Greenhorn, your money can be better spent elsewhere. The Ragnar series, particularly William King's contribution, is infinitely better in comparison. Its also my opinion that "Tale os Heresy" is worth buying for the Space Wolf and World Eater stories alone.

Jarl Kjaran Coldheart Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 I admire your restraint Willie. My opinion of the Battle for the Abyss a. is pointless filler. has no impact on the Heresy at all. seriously, nothing. b. the characters are flat, one trick ponies. the only reason i didnt burn this book is the World Eater captain is the exception to this point, and kinda rocks. c. plot reads like saturday morning cartoon, without the logic. d. the book is repetitive. you could have replaced any of the protagonists with any other legion, and had the same effect. there was no depth to them. (i repeat it because i hate it) the Word Bearers villian is Dr. Evil without the cat and intelligence. really. the book was simply bodily refuse wrapped in a Horus Heresy book cover and sold as a way to kill trees.

Forté Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 The Lord has spoken! To be honest, I can't comment on this title as after reading the back cover I didn't bother with it. Most of the rest of the HH titles are good and you get the odd good towards SW but not much. Reading Thousand Sons (second time as list interest shortly first time I tried) and the first SW meeting was a bit odd (gimp mask anyone?) But will keep going. Everyone speaks highly of the William King stuff from what I can see too. Oh yeah *punches Arez* go back to your milk and there's nothing wrong with audio books (just ask Stephen Fry) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230094-space-wolves-books/#findComment-2764441 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serunox Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Mmm I feel as a way to regain my honour I might need to burn the book lol.Or just sell it and not have it my house.

FenrisWolf Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Need to get some of these to begin my reads. Now if I only had time to read them in between making class lectures. *slaps greenhorn, forte and Serunox upside the heads* The brawling thread is a few lines over.

Forté Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 What about ireaders and kindles? No paper involved. Embrace all mediums cause you may get a nice suprise.
