Warhammer 40,000: Death World – 20th Anniversary Edition Hardcover (Steve Lyons)

The jungle is hungry. The jungle is patient. The jungle is watching. Twenty years after its original release, Steve Lyons' iconic Astra Militarum novel Death World returns in a stunning premium hardcover 20th Anniversary Edition — a definitive collector's release celebrating one of Black Library's most beloved Catachan Jungle Fighters stories. For fans of the Imperial Guard, ground-level grimdark military fiction, and tales of survival against impossible odds, this is essential reading and a shelf-worthy collector's piece.

The Catachan Jungle Fighters of the Astra Militarum are an elite regiment that specialises in destroying the Emperor's foes on the most dangerous worlds of the Imperium. Their training is really put to the test when a squad is sent to the death world of Rogar III in response to an Ork incursion. But as well as dealing with the xenos threat, they must do battle with the planet itself — and with the mysterious figures that stalk them across the deadly terrain. Death World is an action-packed tale of survival in the grim, dark, far future.
