Farsight: Blade Of Truth
Book 3 in the Farsight Series
Deep in the Vior’losan desert, an exile both revered and reviled lives a life of solitude. Farsight has retired his uncanny alien sword and bleeding-edge XV8 battlesuit so that his beloved enclaves can prosper in peace. But when the jaws of a tyranid bio-fleet close in on Vior’los, threatening to devour his adopted home, he must once more take up his blade in its defence.
READ IT BECAUSE
Farsight is back! As the legendary commander comes out of retirement, can he deal with both a vicious alien invasion and the plotting of an ethereal to save his home? It's another action-packed tale from the master of the t'au empire, Phil Kelly.
THE STORY
As the tyranids consume the planet of Vior'los and its enclaves, an inside threat emerges in the form of the scheming ethereal Aun’Va, and the fortress world is soon reduced to its last eight warriors. Among them is Torchstar, a young rebel in possession of battlesuits prised from Aun’Va’s iron grip, and as unlikely allies are thrown together in the dwindling hope of victory, Farsight’s ultimate test is still to come.

Es el primer libro que leo de la raza T'au, y en un inicio comenzó siendo difícil de comprender por algunos términos y elementos totalmente desconocidos para mí. Pero con el tiempo los fui conociendo mejor y al final disfruté mucho la lectura. Este es el tercer libro de una serie dedicada a los T'au, uno de los pocos libros enfocados en esta raza de xenos, pero me agradó lo suficiente como para volver atrás y leer algún día desde la primera entrega. Algún día.

That was really, really good. Farsight was front and center in his own book which sometimes, frustratingly, is not so in many Black Library books of main characters. Plot was easy to follow, there were many sympathetic characters and insights into Tau culture, moments of humor, and good action. We need to read about what is happening with Tau during the great 4th Tyrannic War!

It was enjoyable to see more of the Farsight
enclave and how they've developed, but unfortunately, not a whole lot of new and exciting things happened
