Soldiers of the Imperium
An Astra Militarum Omnibus
The Imperium of Man calls daily upon the sacrifice of millions – soldiers who go gladly unto death, the inevitable and only release from service most are likely to get. It is the duty of the Astra Militarum to ensure the alien and the heretic alike are put to the sword, and the worlds on which they fight are often as dangerous as the foes themselves.
READ IT BECAUSE
This collection of novels and short stories from across the front lines of the Astra Militarum includes several gripping tales of human grit and bravery in the face of the nightmarish alien horrors of the 41st Millennium.
THE STORY
In the novel Death World, by Steve Lyons, the iconic Catachan Jungle Fighters must battle a xenos threat on Rogar III. A crucially important general must be rescued from the T’au Empire in Kasrkin by Edoardo Albert, and Witchbringer, by Steven B Fischer, sees a sanctioned psyker forced to fight both prophecy and betrayal. Four related short stories by the same authors are also included for you to explore the characters and settings even further.
