As the Great Crusade burns across the stars, the primarch of the White Scars, Jaghatai Khan, must decide where his true allegiance lies.

I have to admit that after reading this novel I became large fan of Jaghatai Khan. His approach to life and war, and his dislike of the Imperium (man it is very hard not to put spoilers here :) ) mark him as one of the rare true free spirits among the Primarchs.

He is aware of many things going through his brothers' minds and he just tries to somehow put his people out of the harms way so that they can truly live freely on Chogoris. He even treats crusade against Orcs in Chondax system as a respite from Imperium and its schemes.

Excellent story, highly recommended to any Horus Heresy and Warhammer 40k fan and to anyone interested in epic sf-fantasy story in general (although for this one, to fully appreciate it, you will need to have some background knowledge - be it from other Horus Heresy books or Warhammer 40k in general).
