On the nightmare battlefields of the far future, few foes spark more fear and dread than the Chaos Space Marines. Nurturing a hatred that is millennia-old, they attack without mercy, spreading terror and destruction in their wake. Now hell has come to Hydra Cordatus, for a massive force of terrifying Iron Warriors, the brutal assault masters of Chaos, have invaded the planet and lain siege to its mighty Imperial citadel. But what prize could possibly be worth so much savage bloodshed and destruction—and how long can the defenders possibly hold out?

Perturabo - master of siegecraft and the executioner of Olympia. Long has he lived in the shadow of his more favoured primarch brothers, frustrated by the mundane and ignominious duties which regularly fall to his Legion. When Fulgrim offers him the chance to lead an expedition in search of ancient and destructive xenos weaponry, the Iron Warriors and the Emperor's Children unite and venture deep into the heart of the great star maelstrom that haunts Perturabo's dreams.

Pursued by vengeful eldar, Magos Kotov’s Explorator armada heads into a newly revealed area of space in pursuit of ancient secrets. As the Adeptus Mechanicus forces and Black Templars Space Marines tackle the twin threats of the wrathful aliens and insurrection aboard the fleet, a greater danger reveals itself.

Censured at the Council of Nikaea for his flagrant use of sorcery, Magnus the Red and his Thousand Sons Legion retreat to their homeworld of Prospero to continue their use of the arcane arts in secret. But when the ill-fated primarch forsees the treachery of Warmaster Horus and warns the Emperor with the very powers he was forbidden to use, the Master of Mankind dispatches fellow primarch Leman Russ to attack Prospero itself.

Jenseits des Randes der Galaxis findet Erzmagos Kotovs große Fahrt ihr Ende. Er hat sein Ziel erreicht - den letzten Ruheort des seit langer Zeit verschollenen Vettius Telok. Doch Telok lebt noch, und während die mutigen Exploratoren aus Kotovs Flotte über die Wunder staunen, die vor ihnen liegen, entfalten sich düstere Pläne. Als die Realität selbst durch unmögliche Technologien vom Anbeginn der Zeit bedroht wird, ist es an einer kleinen Gruppe Helden, einen wahnsinnigen Plan zu vereiteln, der das gesamte Universum vernichten könnte.

The Great Crusade that has taken humanity into the stars continues. The Emperor of Mankind has handed the reins of command to his favoured son, the Warmaster Horus. Yet all is not well in the armies of the Imperium. Horus is still battling against the jealousy and resentment of his brother primarchs, and when he is injured in combat on the planet Davin, he must also battle his inner daemon. With all the temptations that Chaos has to offer, can the weakened Horus resist?

Under the command of the newly appointed Warmaster Horus, the Great Crusade continues. Fulgrim, Primarch of the Emperor's Children, leads his warriors into battle against a vile alien foe, unaware of the darker forces that have already set their sights upon the Imperium of Man. Loyalties are tested and every murderous whim indulged as the Emperor's Children take their first steps down the road to true corruption - a road that will ultimately lead them to the killing fields of Isstvan V....

As the flames of treachery spread throughout the Imperium, Horus plots to subvert or destroy all those who would stand against him. On Mars, home world of the Mechanicum priesthood, the great manufactory-cities have long produced much of the weaponry required for the expeditionary fleets across the galaxy - making the world invaluable to whoever controls it in the coming war.

Terra stands upon the brink of Unity. The armies of the self-proclaimed Emperor of Mankind have waged their bloody wars to bring the whole planet under his rule, crushing all traces of outlawed religion and worship from the face of this now secular utopia. But even the mighty Thunder Warriors cannot cow Uriah Olathaire, last priest of the Church of the Lightning Stone, as he goes about his empty, hollow rituals - and only one last and thoroughly unexpected visitor can bring any hope of a possible reconciliation.

After the betrayal at Isstvan, Horus begins his campaign against the Emperor, a galaxy-wide war that can lead only to Terra. But the road to the final confrontation between father and son is a long one - seven years filled with secrecy and silence, plans and foundations being formed across distant stars. An unknown history is about to be unveiled as light is shed on the darkest years of the Horus Heresy, and revelations will surface that will shake the Imperium to its very foundation....

The Horus Heresy is a civil war on a scale the likes of which the galaxy has never seen before. After the Great Crusade united the disparate worlds of humanity, the very warriors who made it possible turned on each other and tore it apart. This war was not only fought on a galactic scale – it was contested a million times over in brutal battles between former brothers and allies.

Of all the Emperor’s sons who fell to Chaos, it is perhaps Magnus the Red whose tale is the most tragic. Sanctioned because of his desire for knowledge, chastised, judged, and shattered to his very elements – there is much for the Crimson King to feel vengeful for. Yet revenge is not the only thing that draws him to Terra alongside the Warmaster’s besieging armies. He seeks something, a fragment, the missing piece of himself that lies within the most impregnable place on the planet – the inner sanctum of the Imperial Palace.

Uriel Ventris, newly ascended to the ranks of the Primaris, leads warriors of the Fourth Company from the Indomitus Crusade of Roboute Guilliman to a world on the frontiers of Ultramar. Once a battleground against the orks, Sycorax is now under furious assault from an enemy of ancient times – the necrons. The Ultramarines have faced these baleful xenos before, but Uriel senses the hand of a foe from his past at work on Sycorax, a tally unfinished and a debt to the Imperium finally come due.

Exiled from the Ultramarines Chapter by Marneus Calgar, Captain Uriel Ventris ventures deep into the dreaded Eye of Terror to atone for his disgrace. There, Uriel must unleash the Emperor's vengeance upon the followers of the Dark Gods and bring His divine light to this area of darkness. But a far more terrible foe dwells within these worlds of insanity: the ancient Chaos Space Marine Legions. With dishonour behind him and certain death ahead, Uriel must gather every ounce of courage if he is to survive and regain his honour!

Uriel Ventris, Captain der Ultramarines, ist in die Reihen der Primaris aufgestiegen. Seine neueste Mission führt ihn und einige Krieger der Vierten Kompanie fort von Roboute Guillimans Indomitus-Kreuzzug und zu einer Grenzwelt des Reiches Ultramar. Auf Sycorax ereignete sich einst eine Schlacht gegen die Orks, doch jetzt wird der Planet von einem Feind aus uralter Zeit angegriffen – den Necrons. Die Ultramarines haben schon zuvor gegen diese unheilvollen Xenos gekämpft, doch Uriel Ventris glaubt zu erkennen, dass ein alter Widersacher aus seiner eigenen Vergangenheit die Hand im Spiel hat.

After the Great Crusade united the disparate worlds of humanity, the very warriors who made it possible turned on each other and tore it apart. This war was not only fought on a galactic scale – it was contested a million times over in brutal battles between former brothers and allies. Since the near-destruction of the Iron Hands, Raven Guard, and Salamanders on Isstvan V, scattered warbands from these 'Shattered Legions' have waged a guerrilla war on Horus' forces across the galaxy.

Im Leben eines Ultramarines ist der Krieg eine nie endende Tatsache. Nachdem Captain Uriel Ventris auf dem Planeten Pavonis die Streitkräfte der T'au besiegt hat, kehrt er nach Macragge zurück, der Heimatwelt seines Ordens. Doch die Atempause währt nicht lange, denn die Ultramarines werden schon bald in einen neuen Krieg verwickelt. Dieses Mal ist ihr Gegner einer ihrer größten Erzfeinde. Die verräterischen Iron Warriors haben sich unter dem abtrünnigen Kriegsschmied Honsou zu einer schlagkräftigen Streitmacht vereint. Ihr Ziel ist die völlige Auslöschung des Reiches Ultramar.

Die Galaxis steht in Flammen. Die dem Imperator treuen Primarchen sind auf dem Weg nach Istvaan und bereiten sich darauf vor, den Krieg zum Kriegsherrn Horus und seinen abtrünnigen Legionen zu tragen. Die Zeiten sind dunkel und neue, noch schrecklichere Dinge kündigen sich an. Als der Astropath Kai Zulane unabsichtlich ein Geheimnis erfährt, das für den Ausgang des Kriegs von entscheidender Bedeutung sein könnte, muss er fliehen, um sein Leben zu retten.

Während überall im Imperium die Flammen des Verrats emporschlagen, plant Horus all jene zu korrumpieren oder zu vernichten, die sich ihm entgegenstellen. Auf dem Mars, Heimatwelt der Priesterschaft des Mechanicums, produzieren die großen Manufactorienstädte seit jeher Waffen für die galaxisweiten Expeditionsflotten. Daher ist die Kontrolle über diese Welt im kommenden Krieg von entscheidender Bedeutung. Die Agenten des Kriegsherrn beginnen die Glut der Rebellion zu schüren und die loyalen Schmieden und mächtigen Titanenlegionen gegeneinander aufzuhetzen.

Alors que les flammes de la félonie se diffusent à travers l'Imperium, Horus cherche à corrompre ou à détruire quiconque s'opposerait à lui. Sur Mars, monde natal du clergé du Mechanicum, les grandes cités-manufactures produisent depuis longtemps une grande partie des armes des flottes expéditionnaires en route vers le reste de la galaxie - ce qui fait de la planète un enjeu majeur de la guerre à venir. À présent, les agents du Maître de Guerre attisent le feu de la rébellion pour monter les forges loyalistes et les légions titaniques l'une contre l'autre.
