The Warmaster is dead, Terra lies in ruins and the Emperor is silent… the question is, what happens next?
This question will be answered in The Scouring, a major multi-book, multi-author series coming soon from Black Library, detailing the grave aftermath of the Siege of Terra.
The Traitor Legions flee Terra in disarray, hounded by the remaining Loyalists, both sides hungry for every scrap of vengeance they can extract. This is a time of change; humanity has witnessed the dream of the Emperor’s Great Crusade unravel, and from their perspective, it’s all the fault of the Legions.
The Scouring is an epic saga following three key perspectives, as it examines the fate of the survivors of the Horus Heresy: the Loyalists, the Traitors, and the rest of humanity. What happened to the Emperor, what’s next for the Imperium and can control be wrested back from the Primarchs?
We’ll meet a new cast of characters, including bitter Iron Warrior Ortag Theokon, zealous Word Bearer Adraharsis and Chief Librarian of the Ultramarines, Prayto. Expect grand battles, bloody revenge and political intrigue... as the series unfolds and rivals vie for power.
Ashes of the Imperium will be released later in the year. For now, why not click the button below to see what else has been revealed at the Big Summer Preview?
