Only 2,500 copies are available worldwide, each numbered and signed by the author. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of Horus Heresy history! The End and The Death: Volume I The traitors make their landing in The Lost and the Damned by Guy Haley, swarming Loyalist lines with hordes of cultists, conscripts, and mutants in a bid to overwhelm the mighty Aegis shield dome protecting the Imperial Palace. After weeks of bloody battle, the weight of the traitor assault – combined with a ritual conducted by the Thousand Sons – exhausts the Aegis and the Palace itself lies open. The person on the Throne is defenseless so a single Daemon can destroy the throne and give Horus his victory Ahriman alone can kill a dozen Custodes without breaking a sweat. The Loyalists will need a lot of Librarians to delay him. Same with Typhus. This may have been deliberate because Abnett has plans for those plot threads and ADB was asked to leave them alone.I was looking forward to returning to characters like Loken – who obviously has got to be in it because he was there at the start – and Jon Grammaticus. But as is ever the case, when you’re writing a character, you bond with them in a weird way and they become a favourite. So I loved writing Malcador and other characters who I’ve never really had the same level of time to spend with. The End and the Death: Volume III is the third and final part of the eighth novel of The Horus Heresy: Siege of Terra series. [1] Description So what is it about? “It’s the final hours of the Siege, the confrontation between the Emperor and Horus, which is immense. And it’s also obviously the fallout of all the other major events that are going on at the time. It’s the end of the Heresy era and the beginning is something new. There is a sense of history, pivoting in the most dramatic sense, and a lot of very important loose ends come together.” I Horus Rising • II False Gods • III Galaxy in Flames • IV The Flight of the Eisenstein • V Fulgrim • VI Descent of Angels • VII Legion • VIII Battle for the Abyss • IX Mechanicum • X Tales of Heresy • XI Fallen Angels • XII A Thousand Sons • XIII Nemesis • XIV The First Heretic • XV Prospero Burns • XVI Age of Darkness • XVII The Outcast Dead • XVIII Deliverance Lost • XIX Know No Fear • XX The Primarchs • XXI Fear to Tread • XXII Shadows of Treachery • XXIII Angel Exterminatus • XXIV Betrayer • XXV Mark of Calth • XXVI Vulkan Lives • XXVII The Unremembered Empire • XXVIII Scars • XXIX Vengeful Spirit • XXX The Damnation of Pythos • XXXI Legacies of Betrayal • XXXII Deathfire • XXXIII War Without End • XXXIV Pharos • XXXV Eye of Terra • XXXVI The Path of Heaven • XXXVII The Silent War • XXXVIII Angels of Caliban • XXXIX Praetorian of Dorn • XL Corax • XLI The Master of Mankind • XLII Garro • XLIII Shattered Legions • XLIV The Crimson King • XLV Tallarn • XLVI Ruinstorm • XLVII Old Earth • XLVIII The Burden of Loyalty • XLIX Wolfsbane • L Born of Flame • LI Slaves to Darkness • LII Heralds of the Siege • LIII Titandeath • LIV The Buried Dagger

Unfortunately, we live in this one, and the fact is that we have a sprawl of plotlines that require resolution (or continuation) before we get to the fun stuff. We are resigned - resigned, perhaps, is not the most positive word, but an appropriate one, I think - to an entire book of character shuffling. We must finish our narrative sprouts before we get our just desserts.

Imperial Gothic

It took me two years to write the whole thing. It was literally the biggest thing I’ve ever done, the most formidable challenge, because there’s so much expectation attached to it”, he adds. “I loved it. I was almost sorry when it was over and there was nothing left to write – but I had to have a good long lie-down afterwards…” Warhammer Community: The (Beginning of the) End Is Nigh – The Final Siege of Terra Story Is Revealed (posted 31 August 2022) (last accessed 4 October 2023) The war for the future of the Imperium has reached a critical juncture. With Terra besieged, and the defenders scattered and broken, the Warmaster’s victory seems to be in sight. Sanguinius, Primarch of the Blood Angels, steps foot on The Vengeful Spirit with only one goal: to kill his corrupted brother and end the war once and for all. While the forces of Chaos have many powerful psykers on their side, the forces of the Imperium have many counters, such as the Sisters of Silence. Obviously Ahriman and Typhon survive the Horus Heresy, but they will not succeed in any effort to foil the Sigilite or give Horus his victory (because it has been a known fact for 35 years that Horus fails). You seem to be under the impression that the Horus Heresy series of books is going to end in a way that radically changes the setting.
