Среди войны и разрушения, царящих в далёком мрачном будущем, у молодой империи Тау есть только одна цель — объединить всю Галактику под знаменем всеобщего блага. Когда представитель правящей элиты Тау совершает аварийную посадку в тылу Имперских сил, Каису, молодому воину из Касты Огня, поручено провести рискованную спасательную операцию и, возможно, пожертвовать жизнью ради Высшего Блага. Но по мере того, как растёт число потерь в ходе операции, Каис быстро убеждается в том, что безжалостная правда войны имеет очень мало общего с учебными боями на его родной планете

When the world of Armageddon is attacked by orks, the Black Templars Space Marine Chapter are amongst those sent to liberate it. Chaplain Grimaldus and a band of Black Templars are charged with the defence of Hive Helsreach from the xenos invaders in one of many battlezones. But as the ork numbers grow and the Space Marines dwindle, Grimaldus faces a desperate last stand in an Imperial temple. Determined to sell their lives dearly, will the Black Templars hold on long enough to be reinforced, or will their sacrifice ultimately be in vain?

It is the 41st millennium. For more than a hundred centuries the Emperor has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is the master of mankind by the will of the gods, and master of a million worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the Imperium for whom a thousand souls are sacrificed every day, so that he may never truly die. Yet even in his deathless state, the Emperor continues his eternal vigilance. Mighty battlefleets cross the daemon-infested miasma of the warp, the only route between distant stars, their way lit by the Astronomican, the psychic manifestation of the Emperor’s will. Vast armies give battle in his name on uncounted worlds. Greatest amongst His soldiers are the Adeptus Astartes, the Space Marines, bio-engineered super-warriors. Their comrades in arms are legion: the Imperial Guard and countless planetary defence forces, the ever-vigilant Inquisition and the tech-priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus to name only a few. But for all their multitudes, they are barely enough to hold off the ever-present threat from aliens, heretics, mutants - and worse. To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruellest and most bloody regime imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim dark future there is only war. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods

И среди похищенного — бесценное наследие Зо Сахаала, завещанное ему примархом Легиона Конрадом Керзом. Легендарная Корона Нокс. Эта утрата лишает Зо Сахаала остатков душевного равновесия, но не смертоносной боеспособности. Чтобы вернуть свою святыню, он не остановится ни перед чем
