I went into this thinking I was not going to like it. I am not a World Eaters fan at all. By the end I really felt for Angron and Kharn is a great character. In truth I would give it 4.5 stars and not 5 because at times things were drawn out more than necessary and others were really rushed. There are also a lot of open threads to be wrapped up. Though this book at some great new characters like Lotara and more Eternals.
A good book but I'm sick to death of the favoritism and authors biased attitude to the traitors when are the loyalists going to actually kick some ass like they really should be?A few dumb bits like an imperator being neutralized by a pack of warhounds without the latter running out of ammo.The ultramarines seem uncharacteristically incompetent at void war and fighting off gun fodder like the world eaters and where do the traitor legions get their seemingly never ending amount of astartes from?
Following on from Butchers Nails and the events of Know No Fear, Betrayer is a novel exploring the war in Ultramar. Focusing the roles played by both Lorgar and Angron in crippling worlds who might come to the Imperiums defence and the aftermath of their failure at Calth.

One of my favorite reads in the the series so far. Dembski-Bowden has proven himself time and again to be a powerful writer, skilled with imagery and language and full of powerful psychological insights. He does in this book what seems impossible, he makes Angron a sympathetic character.
Aaron Dembski-Bowden hit it out of the park when he wrote this book. The characters were all amazingly fleshed out and you "love" each and every one of them. Par Erebus. That guys a jerk! I cant wait to read his next novel!

Fantastic!! This book is my #1 pick in the series to date. ADB did an awesome job at developing Angron and the World Eaters beyond the bloodthirsty savages they have been portrayed in the past. I personally came away feeling compassion for Angron. Well done ADB.I went into this thinking I was not going to like it. I am not a World Eaters fan at all. By the end I really felt for Angron and Kharn is a great character.
