Book 2 in the Gaunt's Ghosts series
The tide of war begins to turn in the Sabbat Worlds Crusade as beleaguered Imperial forces begin a fierce counter-offensive against the dark armies of Chaos.
READ IT BECAUSE
The origins of Gaunt's Ghosts are revealed. Tanith's First and Only are put through the wringer as they overcome their home world's destruction and battle the forces of Chaos. The story's packed with action and suspense with a unique focus on single Imperial Guardsmen performing acts of heroism that will go uncelebrated and unremembered by the Imperium at large.
THE STORY
On Monthax, Colonel-Commissar Ibram Gaunt and his Tanith First-and-Only await the order to advance into the sweltering jungle and drive the alien eldar from the world. As battle approaches, Gaunt walks the lines, raising his men's spirits and remembering their most heroic deeds - and the tragedies that have dogged Gaunt's Ghosts from the day of their founding on lost Tanith. The day that Gaunt became known as the Ghostmaker.
This edition includes the additional short story 'Of Their Lives in the Ruins of Their Cities', where a deadly ambush in enemy territory forces the fractious Ghosts to rally around Gaunt and save his life - and their own existence.
