This is a great addition to the Horus Heresy. You have many new and returning Space Marines, with the focus of the novel being the Iron Warrior's and their primarch Perturabo as they are persuaded by Fulgrim and the Emperor's Children to embark on a journey to obtain ancient weapons from the Eldar. Along the way there are battles with the Imperial Fists and loyalist survivors from Istavaan V. ( )

'The call of death is a call of love. Death can be sweet if we answer it in the affirmative, if we accept it as one of the great eternal forces of life and transformation; the moment where man becomes something greater than his rude beginnings: a flying, godlike, shimmering, diaphanous, beautiful creature. That will be my apotheosis, where I become a general principle of Being, instantiated throughout all of the vistas of the Imperium.' – The Primarch Fulgrim, My Phoenician Imago
'Guilt upon the soul, like rust upon iron, both defiles and consumes it, gnawing and creeping into it, until at last it eats out the very heart and substance of the metal. But if all the world hates you, and believes you wicked, while your own conscience absolves you from guilt, you will not be without friends.' – The Primarch Perturabo, In Willing Sacrifice
'And I assure you, my children, it will not be long before your domain has become a place of insanity as the Angel Exterminatus sends his consorts, daemons in human flesh, to kill and maim. All shall suffer at the hands of this avatar of debauchery, and from its heart shall be loosed countless numbers of daemons, for the gates of damnation are opening wide.' – Fragment of Firenzii manuscript, The Division of the Prophecies
