Predator, Prey

Posted on by

The Imperium is under attack by a relentless tide of orks The Imperial Fists have been destroyed, leaving Terra itself vulnerable, and across the galaxy, worlds are beset by greenskin savages.After centuries of peace, the Imperium is thrown into panic as human worlds everywhere are menaced by orks In a relentless tide of slaughter, ork attack moons destroy planet after planet with gravity weapons of unstoppable power On Terra, the High Lords are paralysed by the scale of the threat, and fail to take any effective action With entire Space Marine Chapters missing, or known to have been wiped out, does anyone have the will and the power to rise to the Imperium s defence It s a snapshot of the battles that rage across the Imperium as the orks attack in force It also continues the story of the High Lords as they try to hold the Imperium together as long as it suits their own interests, of course And it introduces characters who re going to be very important to the future of the series if they survive the battles to come.

into scenarios, giving a quick account of people, but it would always return to the overall view of the unfolding catastrophe I loved that It set the stage for the conf...Oh man what a read It starts off a little slow, with setting up several different story lines Following a pirate turned Planetary Defense officer, 2nd cpt Thane of the Fists Exemplar, and a few other smaller ones This novel easily picks up where Dan Abnett left off with I Am Slaughter and really makes the horror of The Beast and his attack moons take the fore The story on Undine was intense, the orks raining down on the water world and hive cities The story from a ...With I Am Slaughter writer Dan Abnett, one of the Black Library s best authors kicked off their newest event series The Beast Arises with a bang It was a fun and thrilling read, populated with fascinating characters, and imaginative worlds Best of all it gave us a glance of something we ve never really seen in Warhammer 40,000 the Imperium of Man in a state of relative peace So I was excited to tackle the next chapter in the year long event story line, the novel Predator, Prey by Rob S With I Am Slaughter writer Dan Abnett, one of the Black Library s best authors ...You can read the full review over at my blog post Heresy mega project The Beast Arises kicked off with I Am Slaughter by Dan Abnett, telling a fascinating new tale of how a resurgent Ork threat threatens the very foundations of the Imperium Although we start fairly low tech and the Orks aren t brought out right until the end, the build up to that moment certainly kept me glued to the pages, and the novel ...Predator, Prey is the second book on this twelve book saga.This book addscharacters and snatches up all plotlines I think it gave scope to the series whereas the first focus a lot on Ardamantua Campaign.We learn that there are a lot of attack moons. which bears the question Where did they come from I wonder how noboy find out about this before It s quite intriguing I thought of Dark Eldars behind BUT I don t know because it s not their way Why help the Orcs destroy everythin Predator, Prey is the second book on this twelve book saga.This book

interesting plot points and characters, but overall, i kinda felt like most of this book was unnecessary Which is a bit of a shame We saw a lot of POV from different worlds being affected by the Ork invasion Which was fine but other than giving us a perspective, it didn t actually feel like it added much to the story The first chapter was a quick run down of how awful every i completely forgot to do a review of this book when i finished it last week...I started reading this before Christmas but for a reason I still can t quite put my finger on, just couldn t get into it and I ended up drifting away from the book It s rare when this happens to me, I never like to leave a book unfinished and it wasn t a conscious decision this time, I put it down about ninety pages in and ended up not picking it up again for the better part of two months As a result of this, when I committed to reading it all the way through, I decided to start again It pick I started reading this before Christmas but for

Predator, Prey is an ambitious entry into the The Beast Arises series It picks up shortly after the first novel in the series, I Am Slaughter, and drastically expands the stage upon which the events of the unprecedented invasion by Orks of the Imperium of Man take place Instea...While not a horrible book there were many issues The most obvious of them would probably the writer s language I have been reading the black library novels for over a decade and the only other novels I could think of that use such heavy verbage would be the Shira Calpernia series Where that series was elegant though this one was heavy handed There will be multiple times where entire sentences don t make sense because they re so deep in the lore The story itself isn t the best either While While not a horrible book there were many i...Not as good as the first book in the series Introduced about a thousand characters in a very scattershot manner I d just start getting into their story and then they d disappear and never be heard from again.It really did feel like the opening few chapters of a boo...
