READ IT BECAUSE
Step into the brutal, backstabbing world of the Night Lords, where cruelty is currency and survival demands ruthless ambition. This is politics as only the Heretic Astartes can wage it—dripping with blood, betrayal, and the endless hunger for dominance.
THE STORY
Dalchian Rassaq, the Skin-Taker, once lord of the Blades of Atrocity, has been shattered by defeat and treachery. His warband teeters on the edge of annihilation, its warriors divided and his authority usurped by a despised rival. Surrounded by enemies, hemmed in by would-be allies, and undermined by rebellion in his own ranks, Dalchian faces ruin.
But whispers of a ghost ship in the void reach his ears—a promise of power, vengeance, and the chance to strike back at those who wronged him. With only a renegade tech-priest at his side and the fearsome savagery of the Night Lords at his command, Dalchian must gamble everything.
The Skin-Taker’s will is iron, and his hunger for blood is undimmed. To rise again, he must carve his empire anew in terror and shadow… or be consigned to oblivion.
