Nightshade’s Reviews > The Great Devourer: The Leviathan Omnibus > Status Update

Dread Night: a very short, enjoyable, story following a Grey Knight on a planet overrun with both daemons and tyranids.

The Word of the Silent King: this was another necron story, where they ally with the humans to defeat the tyranids. A cool little story that swaps between the necron and human points of view.

Tempestus: This was my favourite story of this book so far. An Inquisitor is searching for a new xenos species on an ocean planet, while a Cannoness fights to eradicate heretics. Surprisingly there weren't too many tyranids in this one, but it felt more like the Warhammer horror stories.

Shadow of the Leviathan: Another gem from Josh Reynolds! This short follows a psyker as they take on the tyranids, which was an interesting new way to see the tyranids being fought.

Deathstorm: Finally the awesome Tyranid story that I was expecting. Josh Reynolds writes a gripping story following a squad of Blood Angels as they try to locate a man on a planet being devoured by tyranids.

The Last Days of Ector: Guy Haley did a much better job writing from the human point of view rather than the Eldar. This story of the tyranids overwhelming a give world was enjoyable and action packed.

Wraithflight: A very short story once again featuring Iyanna as she defeats more tyranids, 15 planets on from the last story.

Valedor: really slow start with lots of Eldar politics. A bit more action towards the end. Not enough tyranids. Follows Iyanna again.
