The first book is somewhat interesting as you see the black legion form. Going from a depressed Abbaddon who has his hair down over his face and was flying the venegeful spirit solo somehow to the 3 guys convincing abby to continue the old war. The second book feels like a prelude to anything actually interesting. The entire time you feel like 'just one more chapter than something big is going to happen' and then it ends with a short pretty dull duel leading to Sigismunds death. It's a very uncreative pair of books, one of the most creative things in the books is Abaddon with his hair down and not in a topknot. It vaguely gestures to black legion civil wars but we see nothing like it and other high ranking BL guys but doesnt actually explore any of them.

The main characters mentor who is an albino gets taken by warp ghosts as a blood sacrifice to leave the Eye for the first time and then through warp fuckery was himself the ghost who kidnapped him in the first place. They're not very good despite having almost complete creative freedom of what happended when the HH losers arrved in the Eye for the first time, and the origins of the black legion formation
