4.0

Peter McLean und Warhammer 40K? Welch eine Kombination! Und der Autor liefert genau das, was ich von ihm erwartet habe. Und von Warhammer natürlich. Auf nur wenigen Seiten schafft es McLean, das volle 40K-Programm zu liefern. Inklusive Atmosphäre und Explosionen. Und irgendwie hoffe ich, Sal in den Weiten dieses Universums noch einmal zu begegnen...

5.0

On the corrupted world of Elijan III, Flight Officer Salvatoria Grant finds herself tasked with a mission vital to the flagging war effort. Piloting her Valkyrie towards a distant Imperial base and a faint glimmer of hope, she trusts to her own skills and her faith in the Emperor to see her through to survival and Imperial victory.

McLean absolutely nails the thrills and dangers of this sort of high-speed, adrenaline-fuelled story. Combine a nicely-judged pace, plenty of exhilarating airborne hi-jinks and McLean’s dark, gritty understanding of the 40k tone and what you have is an exceptional short story.
