Corax Lord of Shadows: Lord of Shadows (10) (The Horus Heresy: Primarchs) Hardcover – February 19, 2019

Just finished this book. It was excellent easily a top three in the series. It was engrossing and I could not put it down. Some quick thoughts and bear in mind I am fairly neutral with Corax and the RG but have read all of Gav’s stuff except DL (not that I think it is a bad book just haven’t gotten to that one with all the newer stuff).-I love the Guilliman parts with Corax. Obviously a UM whore but those parts were well written and provides nice insight into Corax. As an aside Haley writes a really good RG, with all his Dark Imperium stuff he def has gotten his character down...makes me wish he did RG’s primarch book!-Love the “biological weapon” as a huge fan of that genre of movies it was a total nod to fans of said genre.

The hardest one of the Primarchs series for me to find. Great read.

This is a good look at the the pre-Heresy Raven Guard and Corax. Corax messes up, and I have to admit, I appreciate seeing a Primarch blow the job, and have to do their best to clean it up.It's a solid Primarch book and worth a read.

I love all of these books, it is a nice insight into the Primarchs and how they came to the fold and the choices they make.

A very good insight into Corax and the Ravenguard.

The Horus Heresy: Primarchs series is one of the best. They provide great insight into their respective Primarch's life, thoughts, and vision.

The other Corax book by Black Library goes vastly more in depth of the character than the Primarch book. This was pleasurable reading but i'm not sure the way the story went that it was a necessary book to make at all. As if there simply isn't any other information they want to give (or have made up) on the character.This book assumes you know Corax's back story and the freeing of Deliverance. Now, once you know that story (From the other book), this adds NOTHING new about Corax in any meaningful way. There is less to be learned about his wargear, there is less to learn about him in combat, and repeated information of avoiding detection and being an Emo.Long story short: This book is LESS useful in learning about Corax than the other book about him, yet this came afterward and should have expanded upon the previous book. Save your money and read the other Corax book, it's a better story, more insightful and educational about the Raven Guard and Corax.

A+

- Short (I'm biased as this is my favourite primarch and legion)+ philosophical and political debate on the imperium+ Primarch - Primarch interactions, something in short supply especially when friendly+ Well written and compelling+ Raises interesting questions without choosing a side- full impact of the book not really felt without other Raven guard/Corax stories

Good close up of the primarch and of the legion. Perhaps some more details of certain areas would have been nice since some areas were skimmed over.

Guy Haley is one of my favourite Black Library authors. Well written story and a good addition to the backstory and development of Corax

If you are a fan of the Raven Guard, buy this book. One of my favourite of the Primarch series

Great hardback book.
