Re-read in The Silent War anthology
An amazing follow-up/coda to Fear to Tread with the origin of the Blood Angels' Death Company.
And the ending was just awesome.
A must-read for all fans of the never lost sons of Sanguinius ...more
It took a while for the Blood Angels to get involved in the Horus Heresy series, but when they did, in Fear To Tread, almost the entire legion got stuck in. In his ‘quick read’ story Lost Sons, James Swallow looks at what happened to those few legionaries who stayed behind on Baal, their home world.

On the orders of Warmaster Horus the Blood Angels Legion have disappeared in the Signus Cluster. The 30 Legionaires left behind to guard Baal are visited by one of Malcador the Sigilites Knights Errant with a plea... relocate to Terra with all their Legion's gene-banks and equipment to prevent them falling into the traitors hands.
A brief but excellent story, James Swallow gives the reader a glimpse of what will later become the much feared Death Company.

An interesting short following the Blood Angels left on Baal. It was cool to see their doubts and their beliefs when all was lost, and their pride as Sons of the Great Angel. And seeing Malcadors plot line in prose was a nice additiom!
The best 40K ebook I've read so far. The story has real value a mentions few other facts not mentioned before of the greater things currently happening within the Imperium.
