The Flight of the Eisenstein

by James Swallow · The Horus Heresy series

When the Death Guard witnesses Horus's betrayal, Captain Garro must flee aboard the frigate Eisenstein to warn the Emperor of the unfolding heresy. Pursued by traitors and beset by the horrors of the Warp, the loyalists fight for survival and truth. Swallow delivers a tense, claustrophobic thriller in the depths of space.
