The 29th book in the New York Times bestselling series
Once the brightest star in the Imperium and always first among his primarch brothers, Horus has dragged the Space Marine Legions into the bloodiest conflict that the galaxy has ever seen. While their allies wage war on a thousand different fronts, the XVIth Legion descend upon the Knight world of Molech - home to the ruling House Devine, and a principal stronghold of the Imperial Army. The forces loyal to the Emperor stand ready to defy the Warmaster, but just what could have drawn Horus to attack such a well defended planet, and what might he be willing to sacrifice to fulfil his own dark destiny?

Solid Writing, Excellent Characters
By Nathan Martin
Ive never read any of Graham McNeills books before, but after this I might go back to reading "regular" 40K books by him, such as the Ultramarine trilogy.
Vengeful Spirit brings us back to the main Horus Heresy story line after much meandering of side-stories/side plots. Finally we're getting back into the war and one step closer to the battle for Terra. While I dont mind Black Library wanting to cash in on the serie's success, quite a number of the series has gone very far off the main story line.
The novel itself has very solid writing and the chapters are nicely spaced out; not too long, not too short. The characters act and behave like they have in the other novels, so there is good consistency that has been a problem with some of the other Primachs when written by different authors.
The story follows the planning of the assaination of Horus by inserting a team of "Knights in Grey" (very clever) on board the Vengeful Spirit to plant beacons and mark out important locations on board. There is some build up to this point as the team is assembled and there is conflict within the team, since it is made up of marines from different legions.
The story also attempts to tie in charactes from many of the other Horus Heresy novels.
This leads to my first of two issues which I will summarise below:-
1) If you have not been listening to any of the audio stories but have only been reading the novels, like myself, then there is a HUGE leap/gap of knowledge that you can only find by doing some research. As well as recurring characters from the first set of three novels. I spent a bit of time trying to find out who was who and from what novel. There is much missing infomation.
2)There is 1 odd inconsistancy in the story, +MINOR PLOT SPOILER+ in the end fight scene of the novel, Loken confronts abandon and a brawl ensues between the Knights and the Luna Wolves in a room, which Horus seems to have strangely disappeared and then reappears at the very very end of the fight. I can only presume he is eating popcorn and watching his minions fight for him, which is oddly out of character since the whole novel up to this point is about Horus getting involved.
So if you've never read any previous Horus Heresy novels, this is probably a terrible book to start, and it certainly rewards loyal fans rather than the casual reader. BUt if you are a loyal fan of the series, then this book will not disappoint.

Fulfilling His Destiny
By Perry Allen Smith
In short, Vengeful Spirit is amazing.
The novel focuses on two quests: Warmaster Horus Lupercal's search for information that will ultimately lead to secret knowledge of how his father, the Emperor of Mankind, became as powerful as he is in the hopes of replicating that achievement; and a small strike team's mission to infiltrate the Warmaster's command ship (which is the novel's title) and mark a path through its interior by which to assassinate him.
Over the course of the tale, you see both the villain and the unlikely heroes in both positive and negative lights. Horus is a ruthless, genocidal madman, but he genuinely gives a damn about his friends and brother Primarchs, taking the time even to personally restore their weaponry to its full glory and talking with them about how they're holding together after harrowing ordeals. On the other end, the strike team (led by Garviel Loken, a character explored in Horus Rising) is trying to do the right thing that any sane person would do and help kill Horus, but his inner doubts are eating him up, and the task only becomes more difficult the closer he gets to his goal.
The bulk of the novel is the Battle of Molech, which is a war both on the world itself and in the stars above it. Orbital defense platforms, space cruiser clashes, boarding attacks, everything goes. It's a massive and brutal clash, and once the Traitor Legions hit the surface, things only get worse (their battles become so pitched that you'd swear all of the Godzilla monsters were hired by the Call of Duty game makers to star in a mega-war flick directed by a coked-out Micheal Bay). Giant robots, demons, super-soldiers, tanks, missiles, orbital bombardment, everything you can think of shows up (and yes, that's only the tip of the iceberg).
You really connect with not just Loken and Horus, but also a number of characters both attacking and defending Molech. Horus's personal council each display depth of character that makes you want to root for their survival, even when they're murderous jerks. Similarly, though so many of them die (and typically horribly), you want a bunch of the defenders to escape at least that battle they're caught up in, if only to die in defense of their home a little later. You want the attackers to win because they're trying to build a better Imperium for everyone and you want the defenders to prevail because their home is being destroyed.
By the conclusion of the story, even though the war is still on for some time to come, you have what you came looking for: a bloody, epic-scale clash between an Emperor-to-be and the planet standing in the way of his destiny. It's a thick read (over 600 pages), but you'll love every word of it and then some.
Very highly recommend.

I wanted to like this book
By J. Vogt
I wanted to like this book, but it just isn't good. I've read most of the Horus Heresy, but this book is just not interesting. I got about 150 pages in and just couldn't read any more. The book says alot but nothing is happening. Maybe later it gets good but it takes way too long to get there to hold my attention. It also treats the reader badly, it references several events that happened in other books but if you haven't read those books or have simply forgotten it treats you like you read it yesterday with no reminders of these events.
