Book 29 in the Global Bestselling series, The Horus Heresy Once the brightest star in the Imperium and always first among his primarch brothers, Horus has dragged the Space Marine Legions into the bloodiest conflict that the galaxy has ever seen. While their allies wage war on a thousand different fronts, the XVIth Legion descend upon the Knight world of Molech - home to the ruling House Devine, and a principal stronghold of the Imperial Army. The forces loyal to the Emperor stand ready to defy the Warmaster, but just what could have drawn Horus to attack such a well defended planet, and what might he be willing to sacrifice to fulfill his own dark destiny?… (más)

'And therefore is the glorious planet Sol In noble eminence enthroned and sphered Amidst the other; whose medicinable Eye Corrects the ill-aspects of planets evil, And posts, like the commandment of a king, Sans check to good and bad; but when the planets In evil mixture to disorder wander, What plagues and what portents! what mutiny! What raging of the sea! shaking of earth! Commotion in the winds! frights, changes, horrors, Divert and crack, rend and deracinate The unity and marred calm of states Quite from their fixtures!' – attributed to the dramaturge Shakespire (fl. M2), cited in The Prophecy of Amon of the Thousand Sons (Chapter III, Verse XIII)
'Horus had called the dark and savage furies latent in the most ruthless, contradictory and ill-starred power of the Immaterium. He had conjured up the fearful idol of an all-devouring Molech of which he was the priest and incarnation. All his powers, hitherto dissipated and scattered, were now concentrated and directed with terrible energy to one terrible aim.' – from The Age of Resolution: Suppressed Monographs of Choirmaster Nemo Zhi Meng
'The line separating good from evil runs not between species, not between ranks and not between competing faiths. It runs through the heart of each and every mortal soul. This line is not stationary, but shifts and moves with the passage of time. Even souls ensnared by evil maintain a small bridgehead of good.' – The Keeler Amanuensis (Volume II, Chapter XXXIV, Verse VII)
