Siege of Terra: Flames of Treachery (German)

A Siege of Terra Anthology

On Terra, the battle continues – father against son – as the greatest conflict in human history reaches its climax. For those who survive it, a new era of ruin begins, promising both a new beginning and new dangers to an Imperium torn apart by trauma and war.

WHY YOU SHOULD READ THIS BOOK

Fan-favorite Garro leaves the relative safety of the Imperial Palace to confront his father. What fate awaits him? Meanwhile, a series of short stories provides insight into the events unfolding towards the end and after the siege. The Imperium begins to rebuild in the wake of galaxy-wide devastation, while actors on both sides try to move past the unimaginable events of the bloody conflict.

THE STORY

The path of the former Knight-Errant Nathaniel Garro led him from the shattering betrayal in the Isstvan system to the desperate flight aboard the Eisenstein. Now, in Terra's ashes, he must confront his genefather Mortarion, a daemon primarch who has dedicated himself to the powers of Chaos.

And after the decisive battle between another son and another father – Horus Lupercal and the Emperor of Mankind – humanity teeters on the brink. The scars of conflict have forever changed humanity's destiny, and its wounds will never truly heal, but will usher in an age of decay for the Imperium.

In addition to the novella Garro: Knight of Grey by James Swallow, stories by Aaron Dembski-Bowden, Chris Wraight, Dan Abnett, and many others show how ordinary Imperial Guard soldiers and mighty Custodes search for a new future amidst the ruins of the Imperium.
