This is a Horus Heresy novella that won’t be limited edition but will be a forerunner to a later novel I have in the works. It’s set in the aftermath of Isstvan V and features two Salamander characters searching for Vulkan’s body amongst the ruins and devastation. Expect a cameo from one of the Iron Hands in ‘Feat of Iron’ too… Oh, and the cover by Neil Roberts is absolutely stunning. Very moody and something rather different for the Horus Heresy, not really seen before." think its scorched earth that nick mention in a previous entry “Scorched Earth is next up.

Even though it's shortness was short I totally visualised this story in my head, tool my time with it and... also I'll admit I also squee'd a little to :) I've also decided this week even though I have a hectic schedule selling Video Games for a living I'm going to attempt to write a short story (10,000 words).

Totally called the revelation at the end, though, but it made me squeee with delight nonetheless. A little question though, Zartath reminded me a lot of Wolverine here, was that your intention?
