Summary
Born of the fiery world of Nocturne, the Salamanders believe in self-sacrifice and the sanctity of human life.
Their father, Vulkan, was raised on this world, a blacksmith's son from humble origins who became a primarch of the Emperor of Mankind and forged his sons into a Legion. Their saga is one of heroism, betrayal, tragedy and rebirth. They have returned from the edge of extinction more than once, forever embattled, never bowed, the Legion and their primarch the epitome of defiance in the face of adversity. Unto the anvil, born of flame.

Repeats old stories
I may be going mad but at least two of these short stories are repeats from a previous book. As others have said after wolfsbane this is a slow slog. it goes back to Istvan again. this book is about 20 too late in the series. All short stories from Salamandas and Iron Hands.

a little disappointing HH novel
big fan of the hh but this series of mostly long stories loosely based around the salamanders felt disjointed. hard to keep track of the characters or to warm to any in particular. good length of time

The biggest problem this book has....
....is that it follows Wolfsbane. The previous books leaves you ready to crack on and get to the siege, so this dragging you back to the beginning can seem almost cruel. That said you can happily skip this and not miss out on too much, unless you are a massive Salamanders and Iron Hands fan. For me I consider it a must read and a welcome addition to the Salamanders story.....
Two narrators, both do a cracking job, though I prefer one over the other. All in I would say it's worth a credit.

Vulcan Lives
An epic series of tales, masterfully put together and read. Thoroughly enjoyed every tantalising moment.

Great collection
Really enjoyed the multiple stories in this. The longest and last sons of the forge was great. Would recommend for a salamander fan.

A bit dull
Not the most gripping of HH books if you want to complete the set it’s worth doing but if you’re just in it for the story miss it out

Entertaining and well written
Not thing, it fits well into the heresy saga and weight to the tragedy of the salamander and iron hands legions

Lost interest
After book 49 for me overall this was a real let down. I just struggled with the first narrator I ended up skipping ahead to JK. Voices for demons really need some work. Sorry.

Vulkan lives.... Was istvaan 5j justified? Yes.
I loved the salamanders going into the Horus heresy however they have quickly turned to my most hated legion. Every time I hear Vulkan lives I want to pat Horus on the back for what he did to them at Istvaan 5.
It's every other line that comes out of a salamanders mouth.
This is a series of short stories that offer little to the over all Horus Heresy. I would recommend skipping this one & getting one of the later titles.
