marine7312000 Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 So now for the review. If James Swallow doesn't hand over the reigns for BA fiction to David Annadale or Andy Smillie, I'll be very upset. The book is mainly written from Lemartes' perspective. An Imperial world, Phlegethon, comes under control of a prophet of Khorne and a traitor warband comes to the planet. The BA had previously visited the planet during the crusade and now they answer the call for help. The main parties are the 237 Mordians, the 4th company under Captain Castigan with Corbulo and Lemartes, the Blood Disciples and a Daemon of Khorne who shall remain nameless. All in all a good book. Its not quite up to the level of most of ADBs work but is infinitely better than most BA work to date in the modern era. A cool side note, one of the BA tanks in the book is named after the planet, I'd assume from the first time they visited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Raul Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Thanks for the heads up. As long as its not written in 1st person like Mephiston lord of death I think I am going to enjoy this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately the parts from Lemartes' perspective are first-person. Good book though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
