A Primarchs novel

"I have always considered myself a lord of the unfortunate, and learned from it. I am one of them, one who deviates from the norm. Cleansing and transformation, these are our gifts."

Sanguinius, the epitome of an angel, has chosen to conceal the origins of his Legion and prevent outsiders from setting foot on his homeworld. Now, a remembrancer attempts to discover why.

WHY YOU SHOULD READ THIS BOOK

The 17th installment in the Primarchs series offers insight into the Blood Angels Legion, their celebrated Primarch, and the many secrets surrounding them both.

THE STORY

Sanguinius, the Great Angel, Most Honoured among the Primarchs. His glorious deeds are celebrated throughout the Imperium as the crusade sweeps through the void. And yet, secrets and rumours cling to the origins of his Legion. His unique appearance is an enigma, and his perilous homeworld is a forbidden zone to outsiders. When a disgraced remembrancer joins the expeditionary fleet to record the Primarch's deeds for posterity, he must overcome numerous obstacles to uncover the truth behind the legends. But as he accompanies the Ninth Legion to war against the Imperium's enemies, he discovers far more than he expected, not only about the Blood Angels but also about the nature of the Imperium itself.
