Horus has rebelled against the Emperor by purging his and his brother's Legions, but what was supposed to be a secret act of murder has been revealed. In the Emperor's name, Rogal Dorn and Malcador the Sigillite dispatch the largest force of legionaries and primarchs ever assembled to end Horus' rebellion before it can begin. But the loyalists, on their way to enact vengeance, do not know the depth of the betrayal they face. They will not be the perpetrators of a massacre, but its victims.

After a series of victories, the Imperial forces are on the back foot once more. The power of Chaos is rising, the Traitors gain ground, and all hope seems lost. Can Terra endure?

After seven years of bitter war, the end has come at last for the conflict known infamously as the Horus Heresy. Terra now lies within the Warmaster’s sights, the Throneworld and the seat of his father’s rule. Horus’ desire is nothing less than the death of the Emperor of Mankind and the utter subjugation of the Imperium. He has become the ascendant vessel of Chaos and amassed a terrible army with which to enact his will and vengeance. But the way to the Throne will be hard as the primarch Rogal Dorn, the Praetorian and protector of Terra, marshals the defences.

On the doorstep of Holy Terra, the shadow of treachery still lurks. Upon a comet-shrine dedicated to the glory of Unity, a group of heretic Word Bearers prepare to return to the Solar System after being abandoned by their brethren - only the forces commanded by Sigismund, First Captain of the Imperial Fists, stand between the traitors and their goal. But will the legendary Templar's skill at arms be enough to prevail over this new enemy, or will the doubt in his heart prove ultimately to be his undoing?

The Hollow King's hunt for vengeance brings him to Lethis, the capital city of the Realm of Death, as he finds himself caught in a war of deception. Follow the legendary Soulblight Gravelords vampire Cado Ezechiar as he continues his hunt for vengeance. How will the Hollow King cope when he finds himself stuck between Neferata, the Mortarch of Blood, and Mannfrred, the Mortarch of Night?

As the Great Rift unfolds in the night sky above Terra and daemons walk upon the birth world of mankind, the Primarch Roboute Guilliman returns, heralding a dark new age. During the breaking storm, Cypher and his band of Fallen escape from the most secure prison in the Imperium. Now loose in the Imperial Palace, they are hunted by warriors of the Dark Angels, forces of the Adeptus Custodes, and Imperial Assassins. But what are Cypher’s intentions? Can anything or anyone be trusted?

Ahriman languishes on the threshold of space and time, adrift in a sub-realm of unknowable dimension and aspect. He has found it at long last: the ancient device known to the necrons as the Key of Infinity. This should be his moment of triumph – but he is not the Ahriman he used to be. Betrayed and lost, he is a solitary sorcerer, bereft of allies, standing amongst the smashed and ruined ephemera of his grand designs.

Als Prätorianer des Imperators werden Rogal Dorn und seine VII. Legion vom Großen Kreuzzug zurückgerufen, doch erst als der Verrat des Kriegsherrn ans Licht kommt, offenbart sich das ganze Ausmaß ihrer Pflicht. Zum ersten Mal seit Ausbruch des Krieges wird das Sol-System direkt angegriffen und viele der scheinbar unüberwindlichen Verteidigungsanlagen, die von den Imperial Fists errichtet wurden, erweisen sich als unzureichend.

Es hat viele Jahre und unzählige Opfer gefordert, doch letztendlich ist Ahriman, ehemals oberster Librarian der Thousand Sons, doch nun Exilant und Hexer, bereit, die bedeutendste und wagemutigste Tat seines ganzen Lebens zu vollbringen. Seine Suche nach Wissen und Macht diente einem einzigen Ziel, das nun zum Greifen nahe ist. Welches Ziel? Nichts Geringeres als die Wiedergutmachung seines größten Scheiterns, die Umkehrung des Rubrica-Zaubers, der seine Legion verdammte.

Ahriman vegetiert auf der Schwelle von Zeit und Raum und treibt hilflos durch ein Zwischenreich unbekannter Größe und Gestalt. Zu guter Letzt hat er gefunden, wonach er gesucht hat: jene uralte Apparatur der Necrons, die als der Schlüssel zur Unendlichkeit bekannt ist. Es sollte ein Moment des Triumphes sein, aber er ist nicht mehr der Ahriman, der er einst gewesen ist. Er ist verraten und verloren, ein einsamer Hexer ohne Verbündete, umgeben von den Trümmern seiner großen Pläne.

Darkness approaches Dominicus Prime, a literal Season of Night that brings with it portents, madness and strange happenings. Standing alone as a beacon against the darkness is the Monastery of the Last Candle, a temple to the holy light of the Emperor. As the bishops and the cardinals vie for power and influence, a crisis looms among the Pilgrim Drift who are starving in their droves. Discord is rife, and there are whispers of a rising cult, one committed to blood and horror.

War rages in the Caradryad Sector. Worlds are falling to madness and rebellion, and the great war machine of the Imperium is moving to counter the threat. Amongst its agents is Inquisitor Covenant. Puritan, psyker, expert swordsman, he reserves an especial hatred for those of his order who would seek to harness the power of Ruin as a weapon. Summoned to an inquisitorial conclave, Covenant believes he has uncovered such a misguided agent and prepares to denounce the heretic Talicto before his fellows.

Das Unheil ist den Thousand Sons auf den Fersen. Der Rubrica-Zauber hat einen Fluch aus Feuer und Staub heraufbeschworen, der sie über die Grenzen von Raum und Zeit hinweg verfolgt. Die Geister der Rubricae verschwinden aus den Kerkern ihrer Rüstungen, während die lebenden Hexer nach und nach ihren Platz einnehmen. Getrieben von der Not, seine Legion zu retten, und im Streben nach Wiedergutmachung sucht Ahzek Ahriman nach der zeitverändernden Technologie des vergessenen Necron-Volkes, um die Vergangenheit umzuschreiben.

Cado Ezechiar is a wanderer who has outlived the memory of the age that made him. A Soulblight vampire who accepted the curse as his people and kingdom fell to Chaos, he now roams the Realm of Death and beyond seeking retribution and salvation for the ones he failed. Aided by the bound spirits of those he lost, Cado follows a path of revenge, hunting the servants of Chaos to slake his need for blood while seeking the Sorcerer of Change who destroyed his kingdom.

Ahriman, der größte Hexer der Thousand Sons und Erschaffer des Rubrica-Zaubers, der einst seine Legion zu Fall brachte, wandert weiter dem Pfad zur Erlösung oder zur Verdammnis. Auf der Suche nach einer Heilung für seine Legion wird er gezwungen, sich einer schwerwiegenden Frage zu stellen – war das große Ritual von Anfang an zum Scheitern verurteilt? Die Antwort auf diese Frage könnte ein mysteriöses Artefakt bieten: das Athenäum von Kalimakus, ein Grimoire vergessenen Wissens.

Staub und Asche... Von seinem Vater Magnus dem Roten und seinen Brüdern verschmäht, ist Ahriman ein heimatloser Hexer des Tzeentch, dessen Taten eine ganze Legion für alle Ewigkeiten verdammten. Einst war er ein vielgepriesener Bruder der Thpusand Sons, doch jetzt ist er ein Ausgestoßener und Abtrünniger, der sich im Wirbel des Chaos verbirgt. Dort schmiedet er Pläne, um seine alte Macht wiederzuerlangen. Er ist ein Architekt des Schicksals, ein Meister des Warp, der danach trachtet, seine Feinde zu zerschmettern.

After Fulgrim's ascension to daemonhood at Iydris, Perturabo and his Legion were trapped by the singularity at the heart of the so-called 'Eye of Terror'. Their only option? To thread the needle, and dive into the heart of the black hole. Perhaps by sheer blind luck, they were transported far across the warp to the Tallarn System but the Navigators in service to the Iron Warriors fleet were irreversibly corrupted by that harrowing experience.

Stranger things than xenos and mutants dwell in the dark places between the stars - things known only too well to the inhabitants of Davin.

After a long and gruelling conflict, the traitors at last close upon Terra. But time is dwindling for an attack. Both Guilliman and the Lion are returning with all haste, and their armies could turn the tide. The hosts of the Warmaster must unite, for only then can they attack the Throneworld itself. While Mortarion is sent on ahead as the fleet’s vanguard, it falls to Lorgar and Perturabo to marshal Fulgrim and Angron, both now elevated to daemonhood and perhaps beyond even the will of the Warmaster to command.
