Über diesen Titel
The Lion. Son of the Emperor, brother of demigods and Primarch of the Dark Angels. Awakened. Returned. And yet...lost.
LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE
Witness the Emperor’s First Son make his dramatic return to the 41st Millennium! Much has changed since he last walked among the stars, but not Lion El’Jonson’s drive to protect humanity from the threats that assail it from all sides.
THE STORY
After ten thousand years of dreaming, locked in stasis at the heart of his shattered home world, Lion El'Jonson wakes to the nightmare of Imperium Nihilus.
In this midnight age, the dying embers of humanity are threatened on all sides by the hungry darkness. Alone, even the Lion has no hope of prevailing against such evil – but there are those who would aid him in his quest. Hunted to the edge of endurance, many among his Fallen knights have long-awaited the day their liege would return to redeem them. The Lord of Shadowed Paths must gather these lost loyalists to his side once more, and stride forth to vanquish a traitorous son and the twisted Chaos warband that calls him master.
Faced with these strange times, the Lion can be certain of nothing and no one, except for himself. But in a galaxy without the Emperor, without the Imperium, without his Legion, and without Caliban…who is he?

However, this book is a tremendous start to get into the current state of the galaxy. I was lukewarm on the “Dawn of Fire” series. It was not bad, but not great either.
This book on the other hand gives an incredible view of a primarch in the wrong millenia, while still letting you explore the setting from both a 30k as well as 40k view.
After this I read up on much more Warhammer 40k (I personally liked “The Devastation of Baal”, “The Infinite and the Divine”, “Dante”. Honorary shoutout to “Vulkan Lives”, it is technically 30k).
What really shines are the characters of the Lion and the fallen. The ideas used for these characters are teremendous and my heart warms, when i think that i will be able to read more about them in a future book. The care and thoughtfulness that has been shown here... is truely inspiring.
A negative point that i have is that it is too short for my tastes with "only" 12h. Other SciFi/Fantasy series are more bang for your buck, for example 55h for oathbringer, which on the other hand can also be intimidating to new readers.
In other words i would want more content, but your mileage may vary
The plot/story was an introduction piece, so it is more like a canvas background. Some fast strokes paint a picture of the galaxy in ruins and the Lion tries to be steadfast. Everything just works out too fast for me. With another 5-10h material the author could have easily fleshed out the humans around the Lion. I think the antagonists plan was ... "ambitious"? Personally I thought it was a bit bonkers, but it does fit the character very well.
My overall enjoyment of the novel was still 5/5, as I like all the characters + the speaker was great with the voice of Zabriel, the Lion and Baelor.
A great book for beginners and experts
