The Thramas Crusade draws to its inevitable conclusion, with the forces of the Dark Angels and the Night Lords locked in a struggle which neither side can abandon.

When the Imperial shrine world of Kathur is blighted by Chaos, the brave Guardsmen of Cadia are sent to reclaim it. The plague of Nurgle has set in deeply on the planet, forcing the Cadians into battle with an innumerable legion of the infected. In the midst of battle, Captain Parmenion Thade is thrust into an unlikely commanding role.

As the darkness of the war slowly consumes the galaxy, those who still serve the Throne are faced with a struggle for their survival and the continued existence of everything they hold dear. With the threat of the Warmaster's fleet looming ever closer to Terra, it will fall to such heroes to halt the tide, but the enemies arrayed against them are powerful, and the burden of loyalty is great....

The galaxy burns at Horus' command, and a billion more lives are lost with each passing moment - though it was not always so. Once, the title of Warmaster stood for honour, loyalty and a fierce pride in the strength of the Space Marine Legions. But perhaps by following the myriad lines of destiny and defiance that were already woven around the primarchs and their sons, we may yet come to understand the bitterness that can eat away at even the most steadfast of souls....

The Emperor's vision of mankind ascendant lies in tatters. The Great Crusade is naught but a fading memory. The dream of Unity is no more.

Au coeur des combats livrés à l'échelle galactique par la Grande Croisade, l'Empereur sanctionne les Word Bearers pour l'avoir glorifié comme un dieu...

The primarch Angron: gladiator-king and Horus' lunatic attack dog. Never having hidden his resentment for his brothers, he now carves a bloody swathe through the galaxy in the Warmaster's name, with the Heresy providing a convenient excuse to indulge his love of brutal warfare.

Der Schattenkreuzzug hat begonnen. Während die Ultramarines noch unter Kor Phaerons Überraschungsangriff auf Calth wanken, führt Lorgar den Rest der Word Bearers tief in das Reich von Ultramar. Ihre ungleichen Verbündeten, Angron und die World Eaters, scheinen den wahren Zielen ihrer Mission gegenüber blind zu sein und lieber jede neue Zivilisation vernichten zu wollen, die ihnen in den Weg kommt - doch wo Lorgar seinen unberechenbaren Bruder einst getadelt hätte, scheint er nun sein rasendes Blutvergießen nur noch zu ermutigen.
