Nazjatar Blood Serpent is a Secret Mount added in Battle for Azeroth. This serpent is a red recolor of the Riddler's Mind-Worm Secret Mount from Legion. The characters themselves are fine. There’s an interesting side plot about the Space Wolf, Brynngar, having a confrontation with the Thousand Son, Mhotep, about his use of the Warp. However, this culminates in a way to remove Brynngar’s agency from the equation and mean that it also felt pointless. It’s not resolved in a meaningful way and only really serves to inject some artificial tension and separate Mhotep from the rest of the Space Marines. The sort of standout here is the World Eater, Skraal, who spends most of his time trapped on the Word Bearer’s ship, the Furious Abyss, doing what World Eaters do best, killing folk. He’s enjoyable for his single-minded, behind enemy lines almost Rambo-esque side plot. However, he’s never really developed and the story spends hardly any time exploring his adventures onboard the Abyss, so it felt aimless at best. Our main man Cestus, the Ultramarine, is fine. He’s your standard Ultramarine and never develops beyond that.

About Me

As for criticisms of this book for not ‘furthering the narrative’, I’m going to be blunt: I just don’t care. They’re true, it doesn’t move the overarching narrative forward…but I don’t think it was really intended to, and that’s totally fine. Personally I think the Heresy is better for having a few books exploring stories that take place away from the main narrative – not just this one, but books like Nemesis and The Damnation of Pythos too. I could talk for a long time on this topic, and how much I’d have preferred to see the Heresy broadened out into a setting as opposed to a single series, but that’s better left to a separate article another time. Suffice to say, I find it strange that anyone would criticise a book which doesn’t really try to ‘further the narrative’ for…not furthering the narrative. That’s just not what this book is for. Instead, it broadens the scope of the setting, reminding readers that there was more going on than just what was happening in the ‘big’ moments, and indeed that huge moments for some characters can end up having barely any impact on the rest of the galaxy. I rejoice the sequence has gone again to this type of novel in addition to I can solely hope that the subsequent publication in the assortment follows swimsuit. This book had made me lengthy, as soon as extra, for the following launch which appears to be like like an agonizingly far-off event. I’ve truly been studying each one in every of the Horus Heresy books in sequence. I believed the sequence regarded terrific, but that the final two publications (Descent of Angels and Myriad) didn’t have a couple of of the path that made the earlier publications so excellent. (Though I perceive their incorporation in the assortment).
