DESCRIPTION
The Space Marine Legions of old are dead, torn asunder in the wake of the Horus Heresy. In their place have risen a thousand Chapters, each unique, each carrying the legacy of their founders across the countless battlefields of the Imperium.
The Flesh Tearers spill blood in a war of brutal attrition.
The Emperor's Spears keep a tireless watch where their brothers have fallen.
The Consecrators search the dark places for relics, artefacts of power from the noble past.
The Crimson Fists vow, with bloodied hands, to become Dorn's glorious vanguard once more.
These are the Imperium's bulwark against terror, the Emperor's Angels of Death. Forged from the genetic material of the demigod Primarchs, it is by the might of these Adeptus Astartes that the growing darkness of the galaxy is held at bay – for the Space Marines know no fear

Reseñas de clientes
Top notch collection
Almost all the stories are new, and all give a good feel for the particular space marine chapter in the story. It would make an excellent start for new Warhammer readers. A frequent theme is how the older marines who struggled with losing wars struggle with with accepting their new replacements. It’s an unusually human theme for space marine fiction
