The Horus Heresy Reaches It’s Climax With One Last Book
August 11, 2023 by brennon
Games Workshop and Black Library recently announced that The End And The Death, the climax of The Horus Heresy book series, is going to be getting one final volume. Volume I and Volume II have focused on the battle on Terra and climactic moments like Sanguinius battling Horus. Volume III will see all the threads converge for a climactic finale.

At this point, The Horus Heresy is feeling a lot like The Return Of The King with all of these endings. Dan Abnett has talked more about The End And The Death and the Siege Of Terra over as part of a Warhammer Community article and it very much makes sense that the man that started it all will be the one to finish it. It's bad to think that this book series started seventeen years ago with Horus Rising and it's now coming to a head.
The cover art for the final book has also now been revealed, showing The Emperor clashing with Horus in that fateful final confrontation that brought an end to The Horus Heresy. Get a look at the different covers in full below...

Will you be picking up the final volume?

I’m steeling myself to start the series. Even as audiobooks it’ll be a grind.

From picking up my very first white dwarf ,showcasing the fist Warhammer boxed set, to the inquisitor novels ordered from the local library to buying that first gaunt novel with my first part time paycheck, i have read some good some bad offerings and overall have enjoyed the heresy series. I just finished the End and the Death part one after completing the books and associated stories in order, some ive enjoyed more than a few times, and im very much looking forward to parts 2 and I am… Read more »
For the most part the Heresy series has been a cut above. I’m hopeful this will continue that
Yay I’ll have to get some of the end of series book’s but they will have to reprint them as they are gone for tinternet store’s.
I just hope they start reprinting the books again. I’m stuck on book 14 and very few books after that exist in printed version and I’ve been looking for over a year. I was really looking forward to reading through the entire series, but I really hate audiobooks so it’s printed or nothing for me.
