In the grim darkness of the far future, the galaxy burns as its disparate races fight for resources, territory, and divine purpose. The Imperium faces threats both alien and heretic, and the touch of the warp is ever a moment from seeping into reality, with deadly consequences. Survival is earned in blood.

Of the billions of greenskins who swarm the galaxy, the name of one strikes fear into the hearts of human and xenos alike—Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka. The Warlord of Warlords. The Beast of Armageddon. The Prophet of the Waaagh! With his tusks, fists and power claw, he does the holy work of Gork and Mork—and soon all worlds will burn in his bootprints. Mystery shrouds the origins of such a beast. Rumours abound that the mighty warlord was once just like any other ork—but if that is the case, how did he rise from a lowly lad to the biggest of bosses?

Exile to the miserable world of Sedh, the disgraced Necron Lord Oltyx is consumed with bitterness. Once heir to the throne of a dynasty, he now commands nothing but a dwindling garrison of warriors, in a never-ending struggle against Ork invaders. Oltyx can think of nothing but the prospect of vengeance against his betrayers, and the reclamation of his birthright. But the Orks are merely the harbingers of a truly unstoppable force. Unless Oltyx acts to save his dynasty, revenge will win him only ashes.

Follow the exploits of Oltyx, who, having finally been granted the throne of the Ithakas Dynasty, now faces far greater threats, from within and without. He soon learns that the lessons of kingship are not quite what he had hoped.

Nach Jahrhunderten im Exil hat der Necronlord Oltyx endlich erhalten, wonach er sich schon immer gesehnt hat: den Thron der Ithakas-Dynastie. Die Königswürde ist allerdings nicht ganz das, was er sich erhofft hatte. Oltyxʼ Herrschaft beginnt an Bord des altersschwachen Schlachtschiffes Akrops, das sich schwerfällig von den Ruinen seiner Kronwelt entfernt. Ihm ist eine feindliche Armada von unvorstellbarer Größe auf den Fersen, die dem barbarischen, fremdartigen Kriegskult angehört, der als Imperium der Menschheit bekannt ist.

In seinem Exil auf der elenden Welt Sedh verzehrt sich der in Ungnade gefallene Necronlord Oltyx vor Verbitterung. Einst Thronerbe einer Dynastie, befehligt er jetzt nur noch eine schwindende Garnison Necronkrieger in einem nie endenden Konflikt mit Ork-Invasoren. Oltyx hat jedoch nur eines im Sinn: Rache zu nehmen an jenen, die ihn verraten haben, und sein Geburtsrecht einzufordern. Doch die Orks sind nur die Vorboten einer wahrhaft unaufhaltsamen Macht. Wenn Oltyx nicht handelt, um seine Dynastie zu retten, wird die Rache sein Untergang sein.
