The writing was a tad repetitive at times, but all in all a great story with an intriguing situation Orcs and Tyranids fighting each other and the Imperium simultaneously and a bad-ass main character, supported by a fine team.

Some notable set pieces "The watch captain saw an image that would not have been out of place stitched in tapestry or depicted in stained glass mosaic in the chapel of any fortressmonastery. The knight stood, sword in hand, alone against a massive inhuman monstrosity. He saw the manifestation of the Imperium of Man, a single light in the darkness, defiant against the encroaching doom that threatened to devour the human race" and contradicting perspectives on mankind´s claim to the galaxy show a good understanding of what makes Warhammer interesting.

A short and frenetic journey through one of the more interesting isolated points in humanity's constant battle to hold back the tide of the xenos scum
