When a vast space hulk appears within the bounds of Ultramar, inexperienced Captain Galenus of Fifth Company is called to investigate, but the threat is enough for Calgar to step in himself, alongside the Inquisition and Adeptus Mechanicus. Leading two full companies onto the hulk to try and divine its secrets, he soon finds himself caught between two enemies, even while his allies pursue their own agendas.

This absolutely isn’t a book about the glory of the Ultramarines, or the Space Marines in general. It’s about the fragility of the Imperium, despite the Space Marines, and the scope for failure in its defenders.
