BLOOD OF THE IMPERIUM (PB)

A Warhammer 40,000 Anthology


The 41st Millennium is a dark and terrible era where you will find little comfort or hope. Forget the power of technology and science. Forget the promise of progress and advancement. Forget any notion of common humanity or compassion. There is no peace amongst the stars, for in the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war.


READ IT BECAUSE


Featuring stories by some of Black Library's best-loved authors, this collection is an ideal way to explore the setting of Warhammer 40,000. These 11 tales feature Space Marines, alien invasions, and brutal battles for survival.


THE STORY


In the grim darkness of the far future, the Imperium fights for its very existence across the breadth of the galaxy, as those loyal to the Emperor of Mankind defend their realm from the mindless brutality of the orks, the ravenous hive fleets of the tyranids, and countless more enemies besides.


Blood of the Imperium includes an in-depth and harrowing account of a tyranid invasion; the saga of Fjolnir, a Wolf of Fenris taken from his brothers in defence of the Imperium; and a bunch of orks discovering first-hand just how cruel the drukhari can be.

THE HORUS HERESY: SIEGE OF TERRA BOOK 1: THE SOLAR WAR (PB)

Key Features Siege of Terra Book 1 The beginning of the end for the Horus Heresy Written by John French Siege of Terra Book 1 After years of devastating war, Horus and his forces have arrived at Terra. But before they can set foot on the Throneworld, they must first break the defences of the Sol System. Powerful fleets and cunning defences bar their path – but can anything hope to halt the advance of the Traitor armada? READ IT BECAUSEThe final act of the long-running, bestselling series starts here, with a brutal and uncompromising look at the first stage of the Siege of Terra, the war to conquer the solar system. Armies will fall, heroes will rise and legends will be written… THE STORYAfter seven years of bitter war, the end has come at last for the conflict known infamously as the Horus Heresy. Terra now lies within the Warmaster’s sights, the Throneworld and the seat of his father’s rule. Horus’ desire is nothing less than the death of the Emperor of Mankind and the utter subjugation of the Imperium. He has become the ascendant vessel of Chaos, and amassed a terrible army with which to enact his will and vengeance. But the way to the Throne will be hard as the primarch Rogal Dorn, the Praetorian and protector of Terra, marshals the defences. First and foremost, Horus must challenge the might of the Sol System itself and the many fleets and bulwarks arrayed there. To gain even a foothold on Terran soil, he must first contend the Solar War. Thus the first stage of the greatest conflict in the history of all mankind begins. Written by John French
