Raptors: War and Shadow – William Crowe (Warhammer 40,000)

Strike from shadow. Choose the place and time of battle. Against the Great Devourer, the Raptors have no other choice.

The Raptors Chapter fights unlike most Space Marines. Its doctrine is built on stealth, camouflage and patience: strike from shadow, and only ever fight at a time and place of their own choosing. Lieutenant Chandrel Voise and his demi-company are sent to destroy a tendril of Hive Fleet Leviathan on an isolated world. There’s no hope of reinforcement or resupply, and the unorthodox tactics of the Raptors will be tested as never before.

Raptors: War and Shadow is a new Warhammer 40,000 novel by William Crowe, the author of the Astra Militarum novel Veterans of the Fall. It shines a light on one of the most distinctive Space Marine Chapters, a tense story of jungle warfare, ambushes and guerrilla tactics against the unstoppable Tyranid swarm. It’s a must-read for fans of the Raptors, the Space Marines or the Tyranids.
