Publisher Description
Dawn of Fire Book 6
The zealous Black Templars and the Order of Our Martyred Lady hold a shrine world against the Death Guard – a guttering light in the darkness.
READ IT BECAUSE
Marc Collins shows us how desperate the fight can get in the swirl of the Indomitus Crusade. Every world defended is worthy of celebration, no matter the cost.
THE STORY
The Indomitus Crusade burns across the stars, while new threats emerge to challenge the Imperium's resurgence.
As the Kingdom of Iron is secured and the Primarch Reborn's thoughts turn to future salients, the Arch-enemy strikes back against the Indomitus Crusade's forces. The shrine worlds of the Golden Chain are all but broken, and only Velua remains defiant. Canoness Irinya of the Order of Our Martyred Lady and Champion Gaheris of the Black Templars hold the line, fighting against the plague-ridden cultists reducing the planet to anarchy.
While the war rages on and the true enemy makes itself known, the fate of Velua and the wider crusade may rest upon the shoulders of another of the Imperial Regent's agents: the disgraced Rogue Trader Katla Helvintr. Heroes rise and worlds fall, and only the light of faith will guide the warriors of the Imperium to their destiny.
Written by Marc Collins.

A Fantastic Addition with Substance
Finally a novel that does my Black Templars proper.
As one with said army tatt’d on his arm, it has been a rough decade. In this new era, GW has decided to paint BTs as a bunch of overzealous muppets.
Marc Collins did them right. And of the Indominitus Crusade, this is a fine addition that takes the bellicose and adds character to blood, fury, and chainswords.
This is also the first time I actually found myself caring for the Sisters of Battle. The true affection that they displayed for one another, past the often ignomous portayal of faith, adds a layer of understanding and strength to historically a one dimensional party to the Eternal Struggle.
Well done Marc! For the Emperor indeed.
