Title: Flight of the EisensteinAuthor: James SwallowPublisher: The Black LibraryRelease Date: 2007Price: $7.99Rating: Two thumbs up, 90/100, B+, **** out of five.Pros: Quick pace with stronger writing than False Gods and Galaxy in Flames, gives a new view to the events of Horus’s betrayal, develops most of the major characters wonderfullyCons: The writing a bit awkward in some points. It could do a better job developing all of the major characters equally.Overall: It’s a good read. When the writing isn’t awkward it’s also a surprisingly quick read.

Flight of the Eisenstein is one of the better written parts of a truly epic series of game based fiction. Being the first book in The Horus Heresy that follows a legion other than Warmaster Horus Lupercal’s Luna Wolves, it is also one that manages to keep things fresh by adding a new perspective.
