My opinion is that CZ Dunn was given a poor book to write and work on.
Trying to write about eleven different characters is hard, but even harder when you consider its only 126 pages long
Each section is written from the point of view of one of the characters, it keeps going back to each one fortunately cause when a new character is brought in, it explains some of the back story about them, and some of them are just too far-fetched for my liking
Unfortunately, each section is split between 3-10 pages, the lower number being the more recurring one
Once you get your head round that fact, its not too bad of a story, tho the background for the chaos space marines is a bit of a let down, how they go about doing things is also a bit of a let down, but ill let you read that and decide for yourself
The book ended as it did so he didn't need to write another one explaining more about these characters cause he basically uses the psyker to sum it all up for you
My personal belief is that it would have made a better audio drama rather than a novel
so im going to give it a 5/10 (7/10 if it was an audio drama)
Thanks for taking the time to read this short review, i didn't really have much to say about it without really spoiling it for you, please feel free to leave your comments below
Also my next book is going to be 'Wrath of iron by Chris Wraight'
Thanks again
Dave
