The scars of mankind’s great schism will never fully heal. For those left behind, a new Era of Ruin is dawning, promising both new beginnings and fresh peril for an Imperium riven by trauma and war. Meanwhile, a loyal son must face down his traitorous father, grown monstrous with infernal power.

Some of Black Library’s most beloved authors explore the death throes and immediate aftermath of the Siege of Terra, including Dan Abnett, Aaron Dembski-Bowden, Guy Haley, and more. This anthology contains the novella Garro: Knight of Grey by James Swallow and the Era of Ruin anthology.

THE STORY

In the ashes of Terra, the wounds of the Horus Heresy fester. While the conflict between Horus and the Emperor of Mankind has reached its bloody end, humanity must now navigate the consequences. If anyone is to survive this Era of Ruin, they must claw their way through the remnants of betrayal, carnage, and destruction. The scars of the Siege run deep in the wake of battles like that of Nathaniel Garro, forced to face his father, the monstrous traitor primarch Mortarion, during the height of the conflict.
