This week’s Black Library pre-orders encompass the Horus Heresy, Warhammer 40,000, and Necromunda. But first – a new limited edition novella from the Siege of Terra.
The fall of Magnus the Red from loyal son to regretful traitor has been one of the many fascinating stories woven through the Horus Heresy. In Graham McNeill’s Fury of Magnus, you’ll discover how it ends and what pushes the Red Cyclops away from the Emperor once and for all.
Magnus and his Thousand Sons have joined Horus’ traitors on Terra. Even as the warriors of his Legion assault the walls, the primarch and his closest sorcerers enact their own secretive plan – to enter the Imperial Palace and retrieve the last fragment of Magnus’ soul. If he becomes whole again, perhaps he can be redeemed…
Pre-order the limited edition of Fury of Magnus now to see what happens when Magnus meets Malcador and comes face-to-face once more with his father. Prepare to be surprised…
The book features a leather cover with gilt-edged pages to match your other Siege of Terra limited editions, along with internal artwork and character busts. There are 2,500 copies and they’ll sell fast, so secure yours now.
You can also fill some gaps in your collection of The Horus Heresy hardbacks this weekend, as five classic novels from the series are available to Print on Demand.

Follow Vulkan’s tortured journey after Isstvan V in Vulkan Lives by Nick Kyme and The Unremembered Empire by Dan Abnett, which will also introduce you to Roboute Guilliman’s big secret – Imperium Secundus! Find out why Jaghatai Khan and his Legion took so long to join the war in Chris Wraight’s Scars. Vengeful Spirit by Graham McNeill returns the focus to Horus as he unleashes total war on a world that hides a source of immense power. Finally, discover the daemonic horrors that assailed a force of Shattered Legions post-Dropsite Massacre in David Annandale’s The Damnation of Pythos.
Each of these hardback novels includes a dust jacket, internal illustrations and an author afterword. They’ll be available for two weeks, so catch them while you can.
In the grim darkness of the far future, the soldiers of the Astra Militarum live a life of constant war, guided only by their officers, the Emperor’s light… and the Imperial Infantryman’s Handbook.
This indispensable guide to serving the Imperium is back in print due to popular demand. It comprises three parts, each as enlightening as it is hilarious, designed to make you the very model of a modern Guardsman.
The Imperial Infantryman’s Uplifting Primer teaches you the basics of service – which way to point your lasgun, how to fight each of mankind’s enemies, what Commissars can kill you for, and so on. The Imperial Munitorum Manual provides even more (im)practical advice on what to do when you need new equipment, along with requisition forms and very, very, very detailed instructions. Finally, the Benedictions of the Emperor gives you all the prayers you need to survive any situation – or at least to die knowing that you’ve been faithful to the Master of Mankind. Prayer, after all, is the greatest power in the 41st Millennium. Just ask the Adepta Sororitas.
This vinyl-wrapped softcover is pocket-sized and perfect for carrying with you at all times as you perform your duties in service to the God-Emperor.
If you want some pointers as to how to be a good Guardsman – or how really not to be – another pair of releases are for you. Honour Guard is Dan Abnett’s fourth Gaunt’s Ghosts novel. The Tanith First must rescue artefacts from a doomed shrine world, and things start to get spooky as real ghosts haunt Gaunt’s Ghosts. It’s now available to pre-order as an MP3 audiobook.
You can also order the paperback of Armageddon Saint, the fourth Last Chancers book by Gav Thorpe. Eerie goings-on abound here too, as Lieutenant Kage has returned from the dead, and daemons assail Armageddon.
Colonel Schaffer seeks his old protege… to kill him. But fate seems to have other plans for them both, and they may just be the key to saving Armageddon from being swallowed by the Great Rift. Pre-order now to see how – or if – they succeed.
Finally this week, delve into the underhive of Necromunda with the anthology Uprising.
Featuring the novella Low Lives by Denny Flowers and nine short stories, this is an unmissable collection packed with gang clashes, heists gone wrong, dangerous missions, and even more dangerous alliances. You can pre-order the paperback and eBook editions now.
Physical editions are available to pre-order on games-workshop.com, and digital titles on blacklibrary.com – let us know on Facebook what you’re picking up this week!
