Ferrus Manus' story is an example of a miss for me. We follow the mysterious and fearless Primarch as he finds his way through the wasteland full of cybernetic and mechanical wonders, he comes across the first humans he ever saw and it ends with variation of "I'll be back"? I mean what? I understand he is on track of something and he has a mission set, but ending was awkward.
Sanguinius' story was interesting - finding sanity in art. I especially liked the ending, so foreboding and full of uncertainty, one can feel worry (aka fear for mere mortals) growing up in the superhuman Space Marine.
Story that left an impact was Dorn's - mysterious walled up chamber and secret that just keep you thinking, please BL give us more about these strange fellows that were erased from history! One day I hope.
So all in all pretty good collection, as always small bites but they give additional insight into the psyche of these Emperor's Generals!
Recommended to all fans of W40K universe and Horus Heresy in particular.
