The story
Sanguinius, the Great Angel, has fallen to his brother’s hand. Terra is aflame, and the fabric of reality strains under the weight of Chaos as the last defenders of mankind fight for survival.
Across the Throneworld, desperate strongholds cling to hope. The Hollow Mountain shelters the faithful under Euphrati Keeler while the Dark Angels hold the line against the plague-ridden forces of Typhus. Upon the Golden Throne, Malcador the Sigillite endures unimaginable torment, sacrificing himself to grant the Emperor precious time — but that time is slipping away.
Far beyond Terra, Guilliman speeds through the void, racing to reinforce his father’s realm. Will he arrive to find a world reduced to cinders beneath a Chaos god’s dominion, or will the Emperor stand victorious? And what terrible price will be paid for that victory?
