The Relentless Dead (Paperback)

A Warhammer 40,000 Novel Belisarius Cawl is the greatest mind of his age, and he has a plan to open up the Attilan Gap to allow safe passage through the Great Rift. In order to complete his work, he travels to a necron tomb world. In the process, he attracts the attention of something even more dangerous than ancient xenos… READ IT BECAUSE Belisarius Cawl continues to be one of the most important figures in the 41st Millennium as he attempts to solve the greatest problem facing the Imperium – allowing safe passage through the Cicatrix Maledictum. He squares off against ancient necrons and the forces of Chaos in his audacious attempt to do the impossible. THE STORY For years, Belisarius Cawl has nurtured an audacious plan to stabilise the Attilan Gap sufficiently that the Imperium might open a stable route into Imperium Nihilus. With the primarch Roboute Guilliman having crossed the Great Rift, and now isolated on the far side, time is running out. Before Cawl can perfect his latest great work, he requires one last element: control codes preserved on an ancient necron world trapped on the event horizon of a black hole. Realising that even he cannot do this alone, Cawl recruits help from across the Adeptus Mechanicus. Yet as victory nears, malign intelligences have taken note of the archmagos, and Cawl is about to discover it is unwise indeed to provoke the interest of Vashtorr the Arkifane… Written by Guy Haley.

READ IT BECAUSE It's another perspective on the remnants of Cadia, as they carry their war to every corner of the galaxy. This story focuses on the 217th, and their war to liberate a world from heretics, against all odds. THE STORY Darya Nevic is a sniper and a hardened survivor, but endless loss has pushed her to breaking point. As the Cadian 217th war to liberate the world of Parrescum from heretic forces grows ever more deadly, the sergeant fights to keep her squad alive as she is hounded by the memories of those she failed to save. In the wake of disaster, a chance encounter offers Darya a way to not only strike back at the heretics, but to settle a debt she thought impossible to repay. She must lead a mission deep behind enemy lines, where death is all but certain. Yet there is even more at risk than she knows. The Parrescum lies in Darya's hands, and unless she can escape the ghosts of her past, the planet will fall. Written by Rob Young.
