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.

"And that set off kind of a battle royale for control of the platform that Durov eventually lost," said Nathalie Maréchal of the Washington advocacy group Ranking Digital Rights. The message was not authentic, with the real Zelenskiy soon denying the claim on his official Telegram channel, but the incident highlighted a major problem: disinformation quickly spreads unchecked on the encrypted app. The Russian invasion of Ukraine has been a driving force in markets for the past few weeks. Artem Kliuchnikov and his family fled Ukraine just days before the Russian invasion. Additionally, investors are often instructed to deposit monies into personal bank accounts of individuals who claim to represent a legitimate entity, and/or into an unrelated corporate account. To lend credence and to lure unsuspecting victims, perpetrators usually claim that their entity and/or the investment schemes are approved by financial authorities.
