Publisher's Summary

From out of the shadows of the Silent War, a hero emerges. Clad all in grey, an errant warrior of the Legiones Astartes kneels before the Regent of Terra, and accepts a solemn new duty - Battle-Captain Garro, once commander of the Eisenstein, now Agentia Primus of Malcador the Sigillite.

From the desolation of Isstvan to the halls of the Imperial Palace itself, he stands as a paragon of loyalty and protector of the innocent, ever ready to strike back at the traitorous allies of the Warmaster. But Garro is walking a path of his own, one that may lead him to question his own place in the Imperium...and what if he, too, should falter?

This audiobook contains James Swallow's complete saga of Nathaniel Garro in the Horus Heresy - the audio drama series is embellished and expanded in prose, with additional scenes to represent the author's original vision. This all serves as prelude to the events of the novella Vow of Faith, bringing Garro closer to his inescapable destiny as the first true martyr of the Lectitio Divinitatus.

What the critics say

" Garro is not a collection of short stories - it's James Swallow's full novelisation of Nathaniel Garro's story arc, something we've previously only seen (in part) in the audio dramas and novella. There are new and extended scenes, whole new chapters in fact, making this just about the most definitive exploration of the founding of the Knights Errant, and everything that comes after...." (Laurie Goulding, The Horus Heresy series editor)

the best character in 40k

that's a pretty extreme title but I'll stand by it. Nathaniel Garro is easily the most compelling character in the entire Horus Heresy and I'd be willing to argue any 40k media.

Garro Returns with a Bang!

It was great to have this book narrated by Toby Longworth who read the first couple of books as well. He was able to deftly capture all of the characters and situations Garro gets into. The story also spans Terra which is great since we haven't had a chance to see what happens to the survivors of the Eisenstein since book 4.

good collection

good collection of short stories which fills in a lot of questions surrounding Garro. Great if you are interested in back stories.
