While loyalist and traitor forces clash on a thousand battlefields across the galaxy, a very different kind of war is being fought in the shadows - a war of subtlety and subterfuge, unknown to many, but one that surely holds the key to victory for either side.

Rogal Dorn and his Legion prepare to defend the Solar System against the armies of Warmaster Horus, even as Malcador the Sigillite charges his many agents and spies with missions of the utmost secrecy. The future of the Imperium is being shaped by unseen hands....

the depth of back story and the holes filled in the story between 30k lore and 40k were amazing

every story was outstanding

This stood out as a great story from all angles. The politics felt reasonable and interesting. The action was easy to follow and not absurd. Most importantly, the characters felt easy to separate, follow along with, and empathize with. This changed my perspective on a lot of what's happening on Terra.

Lots of questions answered

Several stories shared by other short story compilations, usually there's one or two, pretty sure this one had three or four.

You could start here and still have a great read even if you don’t understand 40k. Each book makes you think differently about what might be real or behind the scenes.

Such a great listen, darkly portrayed and beautifully delivered!

The moments with Malcador were top notch, I guess I should praise BL writers for their attention to detail covering stuff that should in many cases have been covered twenty or more books ago. Thankfully we’re getting it now, what would I have done if I didn’t know the details of the space wolves sent to observe the Night Lords?

Some good moments but mostly drudge.

Only issue I have is I hoped this would’ve been in chronological order instead of released date for each story.

Shadow War that the Sigilite has with the traitors.
