THE STORY
The campaign for Rezlan VI may be declared finished, but for Commissar Valian Hesh of the Death Korps of Krieg, the true struggle is only beginning.
When an Imperial battleship seals the planet’s fate, condemning it to a slow and agonising demise, both the T’au and the Imperium remain locked in a brutal deadlock. Hesh’s only hope of survival lies in stopping the 472nd Siege Regiment from launching one final, catastrophic assault against entrenched enemy lines. Yet as the T’au tighten their grip and toxic firestorms consume the dying world’s atmosphere, time grows perilously short.
With few allies beyond Jens, his enigmatic prefectus militant, Hesh must gamble everything to restrain warriors who crave martyrdom as much as victory.
Will he bend the 472nd to his will—or be consumed by the same grim resolve that drives them toward oblivion?
