Summary

The Imperium has been brought to the edge of extinction by an ork invasion of unprecedented scale and depth. Piecemeal strikes against the invaders prove ineffective - for every ork fleet destroyed, five more appear.

The only solution is to find and kill the orks' warlord - the Great Beast. Surely if its leader is killed, the greenskins' empire will fall apart in agony of infighting and confusion. Lord Commander Koorland assembles a mighty army, but when they arrive on the orks home world, the forces of the Imperium discover they have disastrously underestimated the might and ingenuity of their enemy.

Highs and Lows

Once again great narrative with plenty of twists along the way, combined with carnage, duty and the ultimate sacrifice.

GW should revise their own books.

Overall it wasn't bad. Only issue I have is that now I've finished the Horus Heresy series we know that Vulkan is a perpetual, so he can't be permanently killed but this book makes out as if that's it and he's dead finally.
Think GW need to revise the book and make a second epilogue regarding this issue.

A real struggle to get through

Hard to follow, not very interesting, repetitive drama, lack of Orks in a supposed Orks book!
