He received the primarch in his sanctum, the Galleria Astra, still rimed with the detritus of war. He had turned the arming servitors, serfs and Neophytes – all eager to attend upon him and see to his armour – away, preferring to meet the primarch as a commander fresh from war. By will alone he stilled the tremble in his flesh and allowed himself to exhale. This was a singular moment. One he had yearned for and dreaded in equal measure. To see a fragment of the exalted past walk the stars anew; beholding a son of the God-Emperor Himself as he strode the galaxy. The bringer of wrath and flame. The fury of the heavens kindled.
The original Verminlord, the classic Thanquol and Boneripper, Ikit Claw, Queek Headtaker, Plague Lord Nurglitch, and Deathmaster Snikch will only be available for a short period of time, so make sure you act fast, yes-yes. When you’re as faithful as Helbrecht and find yourself chastised by the God-Emperor’s reborn son, what do you do?”, asks Will. “You do your duty. This is a story filled to the brim with pathos, heart, and the very best Space Marine action, as Helbrecht journeys the penitential path.” It is the Emperor’s will that he return to us now. As the galaxy splits and evil walks abroad, so too must the glories of the Great Crusade stir anew. Would that it had been our own gene-sire. To see Rogal Dorn once again at the galaxy’s helm… Overall, lots of good ideas. It's an easy read that is sufficiently 40k for me, Roomsky, the arbiter of 40k-ness. It's just kind of messy. To Taste.Helbrecht was silent. He could sense the challenge in the primarch’s words but would not rise to it. ‘Then ask it,’ he said. ‘Ask and I shall consider your request in my capacity as High Marshal and by the will of the Emperor.’ A huntsman escorts squad Helbrecht through the ruined world, while Bolheim tries to match the topography with his visions. The native population spends all their time breaking down the ruins manually (outside of subsistence farming). Helbrecht wonders if the natives could better be used to help the Imperium now that they have entered a new age. They head to a grimderp valley, skulls of criminals lining the walls with their crime carved on their skulls. The deeper they head down the more ridiculous the crimes become, from traitor at the start to daydreaming instead of working. The the bottom of the valley they find a primitive statue honoring the Iron Warriors and squad Helbrecht is ambushed by an army of cultists while their Frigate in orbit is blown up. Now it's 6 astartes having to kite a whole planet.
The dialogue and some of the action could use a little more polish at times. Nothing egregious. Presumably that sort of thing will come with time. This is the author’s second book after all.You speak of the battles that have been fought. Helsreach, the Void and Ash Wastes crusades. I have studied the history of many Chapters and many wars as I seek to heal my father’s beleaguered empire. I would give you new objectives in place of the old. Service in lieu of vengeance. Aurilla, Ophelia VII, Dachsus, Orteg III. They, along with dozens of other shrine worlds, are within reach of your gathering forces. A hammer blow against those who would strike against the Imperium’s morale.’ We’ll also have more news on the Citadel Colour paints, and you can join us to Hang Out and Hobby as we build-up to the big Paintathon . The traitor chief clerk manages to escape through the desert, surprise heretic!! (Helbrecht proceeds to behead him).
