THE STORIES

The Last Son of Dorn

As the ork menace ravages the galaxy, the Imperium faces its darkest hour. Its fleets are in ruins, its armies devastated – amongst them the noble Imperial Fists – and even a primarch of myth has fallen against the Beast. As brute force fails, Koorland resorts to increasingly desperate tactics against the orks. A final hope lies in deploying the controversial Deathwatch and the Sisters of Silence in a deft strike at the heart of the ork empire. As the situation grows more dire, Koorland must live up to the symbol he has become as the last son of Dorn, or all of humanity will be doomed.

Shadow of Ullanor

The Imperium’s attempts to defeat the ork menace seem doomed to failure; it is only a matter of time before the orks triumph, and humanity is wiped from the face of the galaxy. Yet there is some cause for hope – the psychic weakness of the orks has been discovered, and a few Sisters of Silence still survive. Supported by the full military might and technology of the Adeptus Mechanicus, the Space Marines head to the orks’ home world one last time.

The Beheading

Across the length and breadth of the galaxy, humankind celebrates its salvation, and relishes the prospect of a return to peace. But the war against the orks has riven the political bedrock of the Imperium, exposing its rotten core. One powerful man decides he has the solution, and launches a campaign of destruction so terrible that thousands of years later his actions will still be viewed with horror.
