About The Lion
Fighting a daemonic incursion within their fleet, the Dark Angels stumble into a conflict between the Iron Hands and Death Guard. Which side will they choose in the coming battle?
“[The Lion] is my favourite story of the collection, the Dark Angels are great and I loved the depiction of the fight on board ship which is dramatic, claustrophobic and excellently paced. The space based story makes a nice change and the author manages to weave a powerful story. ”
– Antony Jones, SF Book Reviews
About The Primarchs
Gathered within this anthology are four novellas focusing on some of the mightiest warriors and leaders that mankind has ever known – Fulgrim, Lion El’Jonson, Ferrus Manus and the twin primarchs Alpharius and Omegon – and the roles that they may have yet to play in a war which threatens to change the face of the Imperium forever.
“One of the hidden jewels of the Black Library’s dark crown is Gav Thorpe. He consistently provides firm tales told in a riveting sort of way, and has gone from strength to strength in recent years. His contribution to the anthology is The Lion, and features the leader of that most mysterious of legions, The Dark Angels. It’s a bit of a curates egg of a novella; fans will love it, those not as familiar with the setting may miss some of the finer notes. It’s always a pleasure to read Thorpe’s work, and this is him combining his growing writing skill with his love for very geeky things.”
