For I have, at long last, come to the end of the epic Horus Heresy.
I read the first book in the series, Horus Rising, back in 2013. I had not read any science fiction before this (I had mainly read historical fiction and history books) – but having heard good things about the book, I decided to give it a go.
I was very pleasantly surprised. I was hooked, even. It felt like a modern-day Iliad and Odyssey – and this is still how I would describe it.
Demigods, brotherly rivalries, the ambition of the God Emperor, a galaxy in flames. Epic stuff indeed!
Finishing this last book, I felt a sense of nostalgia hit me. I also felt a sense of gratitude to the authors of the series (primarily Dan Abnett and Aaron Dembski-Bowden) for their inspiring work.

Official government accounts have also spread fake fact checks. An official Twitter account for the Russia diplomatic mission in Geneva shared a fake debunking video claiming without evidence that "Western and Ukrainian media are creating thousands of fake news on Russia every day." The video, which has amassed almost 30,000 views, offered a "how-to" spot misinformation. Sebi said data, emails and other documents are being retrieved from the seized devices and detailed investigation is in progress. The last couple days have exemplified that uncertainty. On Thursday, news emerged that talks in Turkey between the Russia and Ukraine yielded no positive result. But on Friday, Reuters reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin said there had been some “positive shifts” in talks between the two sides. "Your messages about the movement of the enemy through the official chatbot … bring new trophies every day," the government agency tweeted. Elsewhere, version 8.6 of Telegram integrates the in-app camera option into the gallery, while a new navigation bar gives quick access to photos, files, location sharing, and more.
