The story
There is no escape.
The walls have fallen. The gates have been breached. Defenders lie slain. After seven years of unrelenting civil war, Horus Lupercal, once beloved son of the Emperor, stands on the cusp of final victory. He comes now to strike down his father.
The Emperor, beacon of hope to some, ruthless tyrant to others, faces ruin on every side. Lives have been extinguished by the thousands, even primarchs—once thought immortal—have been felled. His dream lies in tatters, yet a sliver of hope endures.
At the final hour, the Emperor rises. Beside him are his Angel, his Praetorian, and his Captain, ready to unleash devastating vengeance. But the Warmaster sees all, knows all, and the triumph of Chaos looms.
There is no escape.
