Publisher Description
A Primarchs novel
Who better to relate the tale of Alpharius than the primarch himself? As he tells of his deeds, bear one thing in mind: nothing can be trusted when it comes from serpent's mouth.
READ IT BECAUSE
I am Alpharius… and so are you.
THE STORY
Legends abound of the glorious – or infamous – deeds of the Emperor's sons. Yet almost nothing is known of Alpharius, the most mysterious of them all, for the Lord of the Alpha Legion is unparalleled in the art of obfuscation. Such are his gifts of secrecy and deceit that even his rediscovery has remained an enigma – until now. But when the tale comes from the serpent’s mouth, where do the lies end and the truth begin?

Great read
One of my best reads from the 40k universe. Love how it’s written and from where the point of view is coming from.
Informative, but…
It isn’t “Legion.” The characters, interactions and story just aren’t as compelling as that book.
“Alpharius…” provides info on some of the origins of Alpharius and Omegon, helping better understand the Alpha legion more. It has its moments, and it can be interesting, especially with how Alpharius interacts with other Primarchs.
If you are an Alpha legion fan, then this book is a no brainer.
If you aren’t an Alpha legion fan, skip it.
