Summary
A Primarchs Novel
Rogal Dorn: The Emperor's Crusader is the sixteenth instalment in The Horus Heresy Primarchs series.
Listen to it because....
Six decades into the Great Crusade, expansion has been swift—but the Emperor demands the boundaries of the Imperium grow even further. To this end, four Primarchs are tasked with securing systems beyond the Northern Major Warp Storm, the very presence of which blinds even the Emperor’s psychic sight.
The story:
As the Great Crusade enters its sixth decade, the fleets and armies of the Emperor spear out into the galaxy to bring the Imperial Truth to thousands of worlds. Expansion has been swift, but must now be tempered with consolidation. Even so, the Emperor demands that the boundaries of the Imperium be pushed further into the unknown.
The Master of Mankind tasks four primarchs with the dangerous mission of securing the worlds of the Occluda Noctis—hundreds of star systems on the far side of the Northern Major Warp Storm, whose warp-churning presence casts a shadow on the guiding light of the Astronomican and blinds even the Emperor’s psychic sight. Rogal Dorn leads his Imperial Fists directly into the heart of this cosmic twilight. Isolated, battling a foe the likes of which nobody has encountered before, Dorn must use all of his strategic genius and irresistible will to conquer the darkness in the name of the Emperor.
Written by Gav Thorpe. Narrated by Jonathan Keeble, Tom Alexander, and Richard Reed. Running time approximately 6 hours 52 minutes.

One of the better primary books
Not as good as the Russ, pertarabo or Lorgar in insight into the primarchs thought or history, but a solid portrayal non-the less. If you like Rogal Dorn and his approach to warfare, his Stone hard, implacable personality and thinking you'll like this book, if you don't, there's not much here that will change that. Great to see how his personality compares/clashes and works with his brother's, the primarchs seem to be at their best when written together, and this book has a good amount of that so you get too appreciate their differences. There was one primarch, who just joined the crusade in this book, that I think was written slightly out of character but it didn't detract from the story too much.

Background information
Great acting and a good story explaining Dorn and his mindset. Shows him as different to the other Primarchs in many ways.

A good standalone story.
This was a good but by no means great story that does pretty much nothing to push the 40k lore forwards. That said; by the end, the story manages to sum up EXACTLY what the primarch of the Imperial Fists is all about!

One of the better primarch books
Interesting antagonists and adds to the character of more than one primarch. Don't expect revelations

Less like a brick
The story became much more enjoyable in the audio version. I had hoped for more backstory, but the few insights into Dorn's character were nice.
