4.0

[SPOILER WARNING] Following on from events of The Master of Mankind, this tackles the Adeptus Custodes as they regroup following the appalling losses incurred in the Webway War. It follows one of the few survivors, Samonas, as he comes to terms with the changed status of the Custodes, watching on while Constantin Valdor clashes with Rogal Dorn over their place in the war to come.

Given the subject matter and when it’s set – things are really ramping up on the Throneworld – it’s an unsurprisingly bleak story, although it’s written with Wraight’s usual deft touch. It’s more contemplative than action-packed, but it’s powerful and hard-hitting despite relatively little in the way of fighting.
