As the traitors tighten their grip on Terra, Rogal Dorn must marshal the Imperial hosts to weather the storm. But not all of the defenders will survive the onslaught…

READ IT BECAUSE
Dan Abnett returns to the Horus Heresy! Experience one of the crucial stages of the Siege, as Rogal Dorn and Horus match wits in a game of Regicide where the board is the Throneworld itself, and one wrong move could lead to utter devastation…

THE STORY 
The Traitor Host of Horus Lupercal tightens its iron grip on the Palace of Terra, and one by one the walls and bastions begin to crumple and collapse. Rogal Dorn, Praetorian of Terra, redoubles his efforts to keep the relentless enemy at bay, but his forces are vastly outnumbered and hopelessly outgunned. Dorn simply cannot defend everything. Any chance of survival now requires sacrifice, but what battles dare he lose so that others can be won? Is there one tactical stroke, one crucial combat, that could turn the tide forever and win the war outright? 

Written by Dan Abnett

  • WOW! What a story!

    So I’m working my through the Siege of Terra storyline and this book was hard to put down. Tons of big name action, several different storylines with a wide variation of conflicts going at the same time. Multiple key characters we came to know from book 1, Horus Rising, are on scene in this book. Excellent, adrenaline pumping, explosive round firing action. Loved it!
  • So worth the wait!

    Dan Abnett proves once again why he is the best of the best in the Warhammer universe! I am a fan of all the Horus Heresy Authors and have read every novel, anthology, novella and short story. WH40k is let’s face it Dark on a good day. This story tied up a couple loose ends, surprised me (not giving it away!) and hinted at so much more. Most importantly it hinted at the resiliency of the human spirit and kindled hope.

    All the authors for the Heresy go above and beyond for their contributions. Somehow Abnett takes it up another notch.
