Master of Rites: A Ferren Areios Novel by Rob Young, Warhammer 40,000 Paperback (Black Library)

Ultramarines against the Death Guard, with a Captain's honour on the line.

The Khorsari Reach has been cut off from the Imperium for more than a decade, sealed behind the warp storms at the edge of the Great Rift. In that time the Death Guard have claimed its worlds for the Plague God. But these are worlds of Ultramar, and Ultramar does not abandon its own.

Ferren Areios, Captain of the Ultramarines Sixth Company and Master of Rites, is sent to take the Reach back. What he finds is a grinding war against an enemy that digs in and does not break, in a campaign that will test him as a commander and as a son of Guilliman.

Readers first met Ferren Areios in the Dawn of Fire series. Master of Rites is his own novel, and it works as an entry point whether or not you've read the earlier books. Written by Rob Young, author of Longshot, Ghosts of Cadia and Leontus: Lord Solar.
