Kragnos, Avatar of Destruction Retail: $27
The Realm of Beasts has ever been a place of savagery and destruction, defiant in the face of Sigmar’s feeble attempts at liberation. But now, deep within the mountains of the Ghurish Heartlands, something ancient stirs. A god long-trapped is about to awaken, and the drumbeat of war calls. Ferocious Ironjawz, gluttonous Ogors and towering gargants all set their sights on the human interlopers, determined to cast down their keeps.
It is into this maelstrom that generals Ellistor Seraphine Lisandr and Casius Braun march, sent forth from proud Excelsis to conquer new lands. It is a near suicidal task, made ever worse by the growing rift between Azyrite and Reclaimed. But Sigmar demands sacrifice, and the forces of Order are about to be tested like ever before.

Eisenhorn Xenos (Limited Edition) $40 (GW Exclusive)
The Inquisition moves amongst mankind like an avenging shadow, striking down the enemies of humanity with uncompromising ruthlessness. When he finally corners an old foe, Inquisitor Gregor Eisenhorn is drawn into a sinister conspiracy. As events unfold, Eisenhorn must gather allies – and enemies – to face a vast interstellar cabal and the dark power of daemons, all racing to recover an arcane text of abominable power: an ancient tome known as the Necroteuch.
ABOUT THIS EDITION
Celebrating 20 years since Dan Abnett’s classic Eisenhorn novel first released, this brand new edition contains 15 moody Black, White and Red illustrations to complement the story, as well as an author commentary and an author afterword.

The Successors Retail: $27
The Space Marine Legions of old are dead, torn asunder in the wake of the Horus Heresy. In their place have risen a thousand Chapters, each unique, each carrying the legacy of their founders across the countless battlefields of the Imperium.
The Flesh Tearers spill blood in a war of brutal attrition.
The Emperor’s Spears keep a tireless watch where their brothers have fallen.
The Consecrators search the dark places for relics, artefacts of power from the noble past.
The Crimson Fists vow, with bloodied hands, to become Dorn’s glorious vanguard once more.
These are the Imperium’s bulwark against terror, the Emperor’s Angels of Death. Forged from the genetic material of the demigod Primarchs, it is by the might of these Adeptus Astartes that the growing darkness of the galaxy is held at bay – for the Space Marines know no fear

Saturnine (PB) Retail: $9.99
The Traitor Host of Horus Lupercal tightens its iron grip on the Palace of Terra, and one by one the walls and bastions begin to crumple and collapse. Rogal Dorn, Praetorian of Terra, redoubles his efforts to keep the relentless enemy at bay, but his forces are vastly outnumbered and hopelessly outgunned. Dorn simply cannot defend everything. Any chance of survival now requires sacrifice, but what battles dare he lose so that others can be won? Is there one tactical stroke, one crucial combat, that could turn the tide forever and win the war outright?
Written by Dan Abnett
Witch Hunter Retail: $9.99, Cadian Blood Retail: $9.99, and Astorath: Angel of Mercy Retail: $19.99

Another set of books you might have missed, these should all be great picks for anyone interested.
Sigismund: The Eternal Crusader (Limited Edition) $65 (GW Exclusive)
The Great Crusade is ending. The Emperor has returned to Terra, while Horus remains among the stars to complete the unification of humanity.
As the Imperial armies fight the final battles of the age, Remembrancer Solomon Voss seeks the answer to one question: why does Sigismund, First Captain of the Imperial Fists and greatest champion of the Legions, believe that war will not end?
Granted a rare audience with the master of the Templars, the answer takes Voss on a revelatory journey to a time before Sigismund became a Space Marine, through his first battles and oaths, to the bitterest duels between Legions.
