Plot (spoilers: many)

Why the IX did not come to Isstvan and almost fell on its own: Signus, Ka’Bandha, the Thirst. Horus removes Sanguinius from Terra’s equation with the warp, not with bombardment. Without this book the Regency of Secundus looks like an accidental hospitality of Macragge.

Events in the book

  1. 005.M31 The Baal Muster · advance on Signus Inconclusive

    Having received from aboard the Word Bearers’ “Dark Page” Horus’s order to put down a supposed uprising, Sanguinius mustered the main forces of the Blood Angels at his home world of Baal.

  2. 006.M31 The Signus Campaign · Signus Prime Pyrrhic loyalist victory

    Horus lured the Blood Angels into the Signus Cluster in order to destroy them; there a trap of daemonic legions awaited them.
