A great book
As a World Eaters players it is always nice to read a bit of good lore that delves into the mind of these brutal chaos warriors. It really reveals the tragic backstory of Angron even if it does so indirectly.

Blood for the blood god. Sure, why not?
I am a new fan to the 40k universe, and this is my 4th book. Angron fascinates me most out of all the primarchs and although I was let down a little because this is “about” Angron and you are given a great look into his past, it is more about the World Eaters just before they take the Butcher’s Nails.My biggest complaint (probably a dumb one for most readers who didn’t waste a huge portion of their lives getting a Ph D in English) was a few pages that look like a printer error happened. It was a device that broke the 4th wall in a boom that doesn’t do that anywhere else. I “get it” but just know when you get your copy that this is not a printing error and you shouldn’t get a replacement copy as I did before reading it. At least it’ll be easy to return.

Worth it!
A great view into the early years of the World Eaters after they've reunited w/ Angron. {Spoiler} While I was hoping for an in depth origin story similar to the style of Perturabo's or Lorgar's Book, this does a good enough job. The eras of the book are split b/w the impending dispersal of the Butchers Nails among the Legion and the memories of Angron before the Butchers nails were hammered in, while still a slave. Granted it's not a whole lot of memories but it still underlines the tragedy of Angron's life and is witnessed, psychically, by one of his sons. There is a lot of tragedy when it comes to his Legion in general. When it comes to this book though, really it follows a World Eater Centurion questioning the path of the Nails and follows his friend, non other than Kharn. Great read, definitely worth the time!

One of the stronger Primarch books
Really one of the best looks into the pre-heresy World Eaters and one of Ian St Martins best stories in general. It really portrays the World Eaters in a more believable way while still maintaining their unique insanity and shining light into arguably the most difficult Primarch to have as a father. It is also longer than most if not all of the Primarch series books outside of the anthologies.

A Fantastic Read
Book covers the legions transformation to their fathers vision. If you're a fan of Angron and his World Eaters then you'll LOVE this one.

Angron, So Much Pain and Hate
Great read. Gives more tragic background info of Angron ' s life upon Nuceria and of how the World Eaters gained the Nails

Fiercely Enjoyable
As with all Primarchs novels (and arguably every 30k/40k book aeound), this masterful portrayal of Angron and his World Eaters sinks itself into your mind like the Nails Angron bears, compelling you to continue reading. Fantastic story, and well written.

Poor war hounds
The World Eaters just want to be loved by their father, and they follow him into to destruction. A good, sad read.
