Today we discuss the first part of Betrayer. It's a vague and often directionless narrative with some nice moments and characterisation. We've talked about it for a bout 45 minutes and still can't really say what it's about. We've also put out a request for ideas for some upcoming bonus episodes so do get in touch at horusheretics@gmail.com

Horus Heretics

Episode 51 - Our primarchs are adrift, microphoneless in the Italian warp

We're still dealing with the audio gremlins but we've returned to finish of Betrayer which turns out to be.......not a novel. It's a tone piece. Or maybe more of a pitch document for a better, more accomplished book. There are some really good bits but they aren't attached to plot or even the grander overarching heresy narrative.

Episode 52 - Killing people because of unforgivable ignorance? We've all been in those meetings

Your Primarchs love you like sons and daughters and so have provisioned you with a bonus episode while they lock themselves away to concentrate on completing their life's works. Behold Ultramarine: the movie. We all feel bad for John Hurt.

Bonus Episode 10 - The world famous Ultramarines movie - Free to steal now on youtube

The completion of our Opus - Ultramarines: the Movie. Where the training and arts of the Ultramarines show through in their otherworldly ability to identify an axe wound that slices a head in half as fatal

Bonus episode 11 - Head wound, Fatal!

Our thoughts on the Hammer and Bolter episode Old Bale Eye, which was free for 24 for hours as part of the hype campaign for Warhammer+, the Netflix of Warhammer

Bonus Episode 12 - Warhammer+ TOTAL COVERAGE (of the free stuff)

Hi Folks,
Sorry to disappoint but we just didn't have time to put together an episode this week. New jobs, making games, new lives and new wives. Y'know? We'll be back very soon with your favourite mix of amateurishness and xenos misting.

Horus Heretics -  Insert missing episode here

Horus Heretics is a podcast where a couple of friends talk about the Warhammer 40k Horus Heresy books published by Black Library as if they were real literature. We'll moan about the characters, laugh at the dialogue and talk lustily about the spilling of gallons of traitorous blood. Come join us as we make our way through these books, with new episodes every 2 weeks, and laugh along with us at this excellent series.
