Generally a decent collection of action and deep-space manly bellowing and face-punching. The Thirteenth Wolf sees some Space Wolves lost in a magical maze; Into Exile is a forgettable vignette; Cybernetica is a fine tale of guerrilla warfare on Mars; Ordo Sinister is about the f*ckest-uppest Titan of them all; The Heart of the Pharos is pretty forgettable too; Wolf King has some good moments and is basically about Leman Russ being emo about being stuck with a load of hairy feral teenage boys and features the Alpha Legion as whipping boys which is not acceptable :D; The Binary Succession is a curious thing because I quite enjoyed it and it was by David Annandale whose writing I generally hate because its turgid - perhaps his talent is in political stories. Finally Perpetual is a brief where-are-we-now check in with Oll Persson, who is in the 23rd millenium and this features some amazing ideas that would be great to see if anyone ever decides to do WH23K...
