Summary

Lord of the mystical and uncanny, Magnus the Red has long studied the ancient crafts of sorcery. A psyker without peer, save only for the Emperor himself, he commands his loyal followers of the Thousand Sons Legion in the Great Crusade, though also vigilant for any lost knowledge they might recover from the remains of dead human civilisations.

Now, fighting alongside his brother Perturabo of the Iron Warriors, Magnus begins to foresee an approaching nexus of fate - will he remain true to their mutual aims or divert his own efforts towards furthering his own mastery of the warp?

Excellent

A great insight into the men of the Thousand Sons and the Iron Warriors, although some characters are introduced for the first time they’re very memorable

Very good look into Magnus and his sons relationship

I liked the dynamic between Magnus and his sons in the book I think it is a good book if you want to learn about the thousand sons.

Great story with interesting twists!!

Loved it, lived it, couldn't put it down, listen to it!!!
And because I needed four more words the narration brings it to life!!

All is Not Yet Dust!

Magnus the Red: Master of Prospero is a fantastic novella which provides an insight into the crusade-era Thousand Sons and Iron Warriors as they seek to evacuate a planet from a cataclysmic natural disaster, and a doomsday cult. We are treated to seeing the Thousand Sons as archaeologists, scholars, philosophers and magicians alike as they bond with the stoic and reserved fourth legion of the Iron Warriors. Magnus and Perturabo share a bond which is unmatched with other primarchs and feels wholesome, fully real and genuine. Graham McNeill knocked it out the park with this story. I truly believe it to be the best installment in the Primarch Novel Series. But, that doesnt change the matter that inevitably: 'All will be dust.'

Meh

So many of these primarch books are really not hitting the spot. Saved by the great narrator again.
