A review by doowopapocalypse
Age of Darkness by C.Z. Dunn
3.0
Rules of Engagement 1/5
Did nothing for me. At all.
Liar's Due 3/5
Cool Bradbury vibe, and I like the alpha legion infiltrator, even though why would you have a tattoo?
Forgotten Sons 2/5
Kinda meh, but I like the alien shapeshifter assassin
The Last Remembrancer 3/5
Cool stuff. Not a big bombastic thing but I liked the glimpse at how Horus had already changed the Imperium.
Rebirth 3/5
I really like idea of post-razing Prospero and people picking over it's corpse. Straight into the scenario notebook.
The Face of Treachery 2/5
Not as fleshed out as I would have liked, but the Alpha Legion's motives and goals always intrigue.
Little Horus 3/5
I like that even after the drop site massacre there are Sons still trying to maintain a certain discipline to their legion. And it's always nice to have the Vth make an appearance.
The Iron Within 4/5
The best part of the anthology, even though it tried to get me to believe anyone would mistake a space marine for a cleric. The siege of Schadenhold is something that I wish I had come up with as a kid playing with my GI Joes
Savage Weapons 3/5
Fun duel, would have been interesting to see this lead more into stuff from Unremembered Empire
