Dan Abnett presents Inquisitor Eisenhorn’s toughest mission of his life. Everything for which Eisenhorn has stood for in the past is slipping out of his hands like beach sand now. He has got the position which he always longed for and now when he is where he wanted the things are just becoming dull because of the return of an evil force. Eisenhorn thought that he had faced all of his enemies and eradicated them from the face of the world and he was right too in his thoughts.
Returning of an old enemy was unexpected and now when the demon known as Cherubael is finally back he wants to take Eisenhorn back to the Dark Gods. If he says no in reply then death is certain for him. Eisenhorn does not want to sit still and wait for the destruction to come to him so he devises his plan and starts a mission that could be his last one in this world. Pulling this off means that he has finally got rid of all the evil that is there in the world.
The mission is started with high hopes and soon one after the other the hopes start to go down when nothing goes as planned by the daring one. Don’t expect the progress of the story to be like Horus Rising and First and Only because the past of the hero is different and so is the enemy.
Toby Longworth has given the hero a really strong masculine voice which is crystal clear in quality. This too has a great impact on the story because the audience likes to hear strength in the voice in the war scenes.
