Plot (spoilers: many)

The convergence on the Vengeful Spirit, Malcador on the Throne, the path of the Emperor, Sanguinius and Dorn into Horus’s madness. The middle volume must not be skipped: without it the duel of the third volume is just a fanfare strike.

Events in the book

  2. 014.M31 Death of Sanguinius · the Emperor against Horus Loyalist victory

    Horus lowered the shields of the “Vengeful Spirit”, luring the Emperor. Sanguinius reached him first — and was killed, refusing to betray the Emperor (thus the Black Rage was born).
