Synopsis

Fantastic collection of Ork stories from the Warhammer 40,000 universe, collected together for the first time! Unrelenting, ferocious and proud, orks unleash gleeful carnage as one of the fiercest and numerous threats ever faced by humanity. I Am Slaughter by Dan Abnett sees the Imperial Fists leaving Terra for the first time in centuries, and in doing so encountering a foe far mightier (and… greener?) than they anticipated. In Sandy Mitchell’s Caves of Ice, Commissar Ciaphas Cain investigates the mysterious disappearances that plague an ice world, but soon finds himself caught between an ork incursion and another evil stirring below. Helsreach by Aaron Dembski-Bowden follows the Black Templars as they take a last stand to defend Hive Helsreach, whatever the cost. Can the Space Marines, the Astra Militarum or even Ciaphas Cain himself be enough to stem the great green tide? Revered Black Library authors Dan Abnett, Aaron Dembski-Bowden and Sandy Mitchell showcase their talents in this action-packed collection.
