Deathfire (The Horus Heresy, #32)

** spoiler alert **
This isn’t a deep book or something that will cause you to reflect. It is an Odyssey like story with superhuman soldiers flying through the dangers of a chaos infested space to revive their demigod father on their home world by throwing him into a big volcano. It is a story that depicts radicalism and unyielding faith. In a way it is also a focus on the perseverance of humans and strength of will. But, most importantly, it is about superhumans fighting other “evil� superhumans and demons using crazy tech, flamethrowers and chainsaw swords. Deathfire, if nothing else, is an incredibly fun read. It’s overly badass and over the top and the author knows that and leans into it.

"Watching a superhuman fight an 8 foot tall demon with a Warhammer in one hand and a chainsaw-sword in the other has to be the coolest thing ever."

"You know what’s better than a deep philosophical book? Badass over the top superhuman vs demon and alien fights where they use chainsaw swords and fight in the name of their demigod father who is in a permanent coma."
