The Apex (couverture originale)

The Apex

The alien menace of the tyranids sweeps across Signis VII and only the brave men and women of the Imperial Guard stand in the way of the Great Devourer. The Catachan Second, under the command of the infamous Colonel ‘Iron Hand’ Straken, are sent into the heart of the monstrous enemy to recover a vital asset. Surrounded by deadly aliens and rescuing someone who wants to stay where he is, Straken’s mission seems doomed to failure…
4/5

The Apex est une nouvelle qui remplit parfaitement son rôle en nous offrant en peu de temps du Catachan et du Straken bien viril ainsi qu'une superbe ambiance de jungle infestée de tyranides. Straken contre Prédator.

Bjorn : Lone Wolf (couverture originale)

Bjorn : Lone Wolf

As daemons swarm across the fields of Velbayne, bringing madness and Chaos to all that they touch, Leman Russ and the Rout stand arrayed against them. Packs fight back to back, brothers protecting one another – except for one. The Lone Wolf, the warrior without a pack, stands alone. And somewhere on the battlefield is a foe against which he will have vengeance…
Machine Spirit (couverture originale)

Machine Spirit

When a Deathwatch mission goes awry, a kill-team led by Techmarine Zaeus are forced into a rapid and desperate exfiltration. Their captain, Polino, is badly injured. When they find their transport destroyed, its pilot dead, they know they are in trouble. Hope lies in the chance discovery of a communication from another Adeptus Astartes force on the world and the promise of reinforcement. As his brothers try to hold out against murderous alien kroot, Zaeus goes on alone to find the source of the message and bring help before it's too late.
3/5

Cette nouvelle de Nick Kyme est assez classique dans l'ensemble et accuse en plus certaines faiblesses de taille. Néanmoins le plaisir de lire un récit sur la Deathwatch ne devrait pas entamer votre morale de fer face à la horde de xenos qui arrive.

Riven (couverture originale)

Riven

As one of the vaunted Crusader Host, Brother Crius stood as the representative of the X Legion upon the soil of Holy Terra, but when he learns of the death of his beloved primarch Ferrus Manus at the hands of the traitors, his stoic, mechanical grief imbues him with the strength and resolve to undertake a special mission on behalf of Rogal Dorn himself. Striking out into the stars, he searches for any signs of his lost Iron Hands brethren, hoping to bring them back to Terra to aid in the final defence of the Palace. The question remains – just who has survived the slaughter on Isstvan V, an...
5/5

Une nouvelle qui vaut son pesant en acier trempé. Dispensable mais excellente. Un délice pour un fan Iron Hand.

In Memoriam (couverture française)

In Memoriam

Jeshua Thoru, commémorateur, explore les ruines de la cité-ruche de Vervun à la recherche d'inspiration pour sa prochaine oeuvre. Accompagné par un groupe de Fantômes, il aura un authentique avant-goût de ce à quoi sont chaque jour confrontés les soldats de l'Impérium.
2/5

Même le fan de la série sera déçu par cette nouvelle qui n’offre ni surprise ni excitation. L’impression d’une nouvelle écrite pour meubler et faire de l’inédit est trop présente, et surtout désagréable.

Vermilion Level (couverture originale)

Vermilion Level

As Colonel-Commissar Ibram Gaunt and his men – the Tanith First and Only – travel to a new war zone, Gaunt is drawn in to a mysterious conspiracy that could imperil the lives of all his men. Can he decipher the Vermilion level message that will reveal the truth before all is lost?
2/5

Cette nouvelle ressortie des archives propose un scénario alternatif au début des aventures des fantômes, pas de grand bouleversement, mais un bon flash back pour ceux qui comme moi ont lus Premier & Unique il y a un moment.

Spear of Macragge (couverture originale)

Spear of Macragge

With Captain Sicarius laid low and defeat looming, the Ultramarines rally behind Chief Librarian Tigurius to try and save the world of Damnos from the necrons. As the legendary tank commander Antaro Chronus engages the necrons in a massed armour battle on the plains of the deadly world, Tigurius and his followers make a desperate attempt to win the war once and for all.
3.5/5

Cette nouvelle nous offre enfin l'occasion de clore La Chute de Damnos en nous procurant des scènes riches et marquantes concernant une véritable défaite de l'Adeptus Astartes.
