Nemesis is a novel that will forever have a special place in my heart; first and foremost, because it was the first thing I wrote that ever made it to proper “bestseller” status, breaking on to the New York Times book chart in August of 2010; but also because it’s one of the most experimental novels in the Horus Heresy series and a work that represented a genuine challenge for me.
Set against the backdrop of a galactic insurrection, Nemesis a mix of black ops action-thriller and serial killer murder mystery, and it remains the most off-tempo of the books I’ve written for Black Library – and now if you so please, you can sit back and listen to just under fifteen hours of plot and counter-plot in this new unabridged audiobook version read by Jonathan Keeble.
After the horrors of Istvaan V, Horus declares outright war against the Imperium. In the shadows of the Emperor’s Palace, powerful figures convene.
Their plan is to send a team of assassins to execute the arch-traitor Horus and end the war for the galaxy of mankind before it’s even begun.
But what they cannot know is that another assassin is abroad already, with his sights firmly set on killing the Emperor.
