For ten thousand years, the massed armies of the Astra Militarum have defended the Imperium from the multitudinous horrors that seek to overwhelm it. With guns and tanks, determination and courage, these human soldiers fight across a thousand war zones, in a war that has no ending. This anthology showcases some of the most famous regiments of the Astra Militarum along with their charismatic commanders, heroes such as Commissar Yarrick and Colonel 'Iron Hand' Straken.
Read it because
Commissar Yarrick, Colonel Straken and Lord Castellan Creed take centre stage in eight tales of the ordinary men and women of the Imperium's armies - including a trilogy of tales featuring Creed and his Cadian Eighth, leading up to the Battle of Tyrok Fields, where the general took command and forged his legend. See exactly what he did to earn the title of Lord Castellan as he saves Cadia from disaster and ruin.

About the authors
Toby Frost is the author of the Dark Renaissance and Space Captain Smith series, and two stand-alone novels.
The Dark Renaissance series tells the story of Giulia Degarno, mercenary and assassin, in a fantasy world full of hardboiled action and grimdark intrigue. Expect devious princes, deadly plots and magically-enhanced technology.
The Imposters tells the story of two mismatched secret agents - a memory-wiped spy and a reprogrammed android - trying to unravel a conspiracy that spans the galaxy. Full of adventure and dry humour, it's a fast moving espionage novel - in space!
The six Space Captain Smith novels, published by Myrmidon Books, are comedy space opera set in a space empire threatened by giant ants and enraged lemming-people. Think "Blackadder meets Flashman in space" and you've got the idea.
Straken is a Warhammer 40,000 novel published by Games Workshop's Black Library. Colonel Straken of the Imperial Guard campaigns against the vicious orks in a tale of black humour and grim adventure. Colonel Straken's adventures continue in several short stories.
Justin was born in the Bahamas, a luxurious beginning to life, of which he has almost no recollection. His first proper memories are of rainy Yorkshire, instead.
After stumbling across Dungeons and Dragons when he was ten years old, he bought his first White Dwarf #32 for an article about Rings of Power. He has grown up with the Warhammer hobby and as a long-time IG player, its a rare honour to add a little bit more of blood to the Grim Dark future.

The stand out was definitely the opening stories about Yarrick. Yarrick was on the first 'special characters' established for Warhammer 40k and he was paired in eternal combat with the Ork warlord Ghazgul. These stories flesh out their eternal war with Yarrick definitely getting the worse of it. About halfway through it hit me, this is Ahab vs Moby Dick, with Yarrick as the crippled, bitter Ahab never able to get revenge on his foe.
The other stories vary from fair to mediocre. They scratch that itch of wanted to read 40k fiction but didn't really stick with me.
