-Antibelicismo respetuoso en el seno de una franquicia de ciencia ficción militar.-

Género. Relato.

Lo que nos cuenta. En el relato In memoriam (publicación original: In Remembrance, 2002), y sesenta años después de los combates en Varghast por el ataque de Zoica, el escultor Jeshua Thuro recuerda sus experiencias cuando le encargaron erigir un monumento en honor a la victoria de la Colmena Vervun y que conmemorara, de manera especial, la actuación de Los Primeros de Tanith, por lo que intentó conocer a sus miembros para plasmar mejor sus facciones y gestos. Relato independiente pero que se sitúa, dentro de la saga Los Fantasmas de Gaunt, justo antes del final de la novela Necrópolis.

A nice close to the end of necropolis. Good way to finish the first omnibus.

4.5

I když jsem tento kus přečetla s dosti velkou oklikou až po dočtení Warmastera, stále z toho dýchá ta nepopiratelná atmosféra akce, tklivosti a utrpení, kterou si tak dobře pamatuji z právě k In Remembrance předcházející trojky. Snad proto pro mě tento krátký příběh znamená kvůli znalosti dalšího dění trochu víc a ještě hezčeji drnká na sentimentální strunu. Nezbývá si tak jen povzdychnout a dál zamlkle čekat na poslední avizovanou knihu o TFaO, protože vztekání se již vzalo za své.

Fething waiting.

It was fast paced action to read. Commissar Ibram Gaunt dealt not only with obligatory hordes of heretics and Chaos forces but also with traitorous commander whom he dispatched neatly. The hive city is never good place to fight in but good for recruitment of the new blood to slowly thining Tanith First and Only. The brave men and women of Vervunhive joined the guard and were ready to die for the Emperor like proper imperial citizens should.

Un broche de oro para Necrópolis, con los sucesos que pasan después del traumático desenlace.

Reflexiona sobre la naturaleza real de la guerra. Y del paso de estos grandes personajes (los Fantasmas de Gaunt) por la historia del Imperio.

Un paso que siempre acaba invisibilizado, porqué la carne de cañón no es importante.

Bru-tal. Mae mia.

A nice, bittersweet follow up to the events of Necropolis. Is in the immediate aftermath, and we get to see many of our favourite characters from the Tanith First and Only here from an outsider perspective. Could have been nice if even longer, but is still well done.

I actually discovered and read this book inbetween Only in Death and Blood Pact. I enjoyed the story from a non combatant's perspective.

[Wayne · Rating 4 out of 5]

A very fitting epitath to "Necropolis" and tribute to "Gaunts Ghosts".

[C Phil · Rating 4 out of 5]

A entertaining 10 min read. Provided a interesting additional POV that deepened the universe further.

[Harry · Rating 5 out of 5]

Amazing, emotional look at the ghosts, and in my opinion the perfect way to bookend the first major arc of the series

[Ulzeta · Rating 2 out of 5]

Quite boring.

[Adrian Dumitru · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great!

[Mayonez Sidorovich · Rating 5 out of 5]

A satisfying and poignant short story to tie up the Vervun hive saga from Necropolis. An outside perspective of the conflict's resolution done superbly.

[Mikael Cerbing · Rating 4 out of 5]

Short, sweet and to the point. A good ending to the first omnibus. I think I prefer Abnetts short stories.

[Gregory · Rating 5 out of 5]

Remembrance was an incredible cherry on the cake to this saga.

[Richie Howle · Rating 4 out of 5]

Short but a really nice epilogue to Necropolis

[Hasse Sarin · Rating 5 out of 5]

It functions as an Epilogue and ties up the events of Vervunhive and the short history of Gaunt's Ghosts. Very good read and short enough that I'd recommend reading this right after you close the last page of Necropolis.

[Appy Apperson · Rating 5 out of 5]

A beautiful little story about the meaninglessness of war and combat. This story was told through the eyes of a non-combatant during a post-war skirmish. The symbolism and comparisons of war to every day things make this a fascinating read.

[Mary Catelli · Rating 4 out of 5]

Reviewed the entire omnibus The Founding

[Andrey Nalyotov · Rating 3 out of 5]

Like a friend - good story, but passable

A statue of the Ghosts.
