4.0 out of 5 stars
$60 for Hereticus, I think not, July 16 2004
By A Customer
For some odd reason, this book - a $6.95 paperback if purchased from The Black Library itself is being listed by sellers here for $40 and up! Do yourself a favor and just use the GW online store to order, after speaking with a GW sales representitive here in the US, the book is not in limited production, nor is it sold out.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Not the best, Jun 22 2003
Going out on a limb with this review considering how much everyone seems to love this book, BUT...I didn't.I didn't care for this book as much as the first two in the series (which were excellent). The opening part of the book is awesome and I couldn't wait to get into it. Then came the middle....and I thought it very tedious. The introduction of the "old flame" I could have done without, an extremely annoying character. I thought things would pick up but they didn't. Although at the end things got better it was still rather anti-climatic. Some reviewers point out that the publisher puts extensive size limits on these books and I'm sure that is true (since I've read it other places as well) but alot of fluff could have been chopped out of the middle of this book to make alot of room for some serious Warhammer 40K "fleshing out".

Hereticus, the last book of the Eisenhorn trilogy, April 2 2003
By A Customer
Hereticus, the last book of the Eisenhorn trilogy, probably the best story to come out of WH40k so far. It's the story of the Inquisitor Eisenhorn. The book is rich, lavish and vivid in details, and it brings the book to a "reality feel" (and that's hard to do in a fiction). I gave Hereticus 5 stars, since it brings back an amazing story (Xenos style) and has lots of twists, the first half of this book is amazing, and is the best part of the whole trilogy, it has a unique reality feel, it's sad that the Eisenhorn trilogy had to stop here, Dan had finally the perfect balance of story telling, description and style with this book. The book will please anyone from a new fan to a old WH40K expert. It should be noted that a minimum, or basic knowledge of the WH40K universe and the previous books Xenos and Malleus is required for a full appreciation of this book.
