Description

Fifteenth novel of the Horus Heresy series by Dan Abnett, companion to A Thousand Sons, told largely through a human skjald attached to the Space Wolves rather than as a straight battle account. Terran scholar Kasper Hawser is taken in by the Wolves of Fenris and becomes storyteller to Tra Company; years among the Rout on the Great Crusade lead, at last, to the hour when Leman Russ is sent against Magnus and the Thousand Sons' home world of Prospero.
