    You gotta love the horror of the cover!

    ::: Synopsis :::

    As one of the Imperium’s many staging grounds for the forces serving in the Great Crusade, the verdant world of Tallarn has long served as a transfer point for vast numbers of military personnel and their war machines. Now, destroyed by a deadly virus-bomb attack launched by the battered Iron Warriors fleet, the entire world is reduced to a toxic wasteland where the survivors must fight to defend what little remains of their home. The remnants of the once mighty Jurnian 701st armoured regiment emerge from their underground shelters, and the opening movements of the Battle of Tallarn begin...

    what's the deal with these novellas? I object to them anyway for being limited runs at an extortionate price anyway, which leaves the out of reach of many of the series' fans, but do you actually get a satisfactory story out of it? The reader is paying several times the cost of a regular novel for less actual story.

    The artwork is awesome though.

    I've got a few of these limited novella and they nice to have along with great art work but that it, I have found the stories a bit disappointing like they are trying to fit a full novel into a hundred page novella! They promise mountains but deliver mole hills! In my opinion, if you want a story that adds something to the horus heresy buy it, if your looking for something that adds to the heresy as a whole I would avoid these novellas!

    From now on I will only buy one of these if its about Night Lords because they are my favourites and I love anything about them!
