A Warhammer 40,000 Anthology

This anthology brings together 13 hilarious short stories and one novella, all focused on Ciaphas Cain – the so-called Hero of the Imperium. His exploits are celebrated in uplifting propaganda, but Cain himself is simply trying to survive the galaxy’s many horrors.

Read It Because

Ciaphas Cain never sets out to be a hero – he just wants to live through the day. Yet in his attempts to avoid danger, he somehow racks up victory after improbable victory, much to the delight of the Imperium (and the amusement of readers).

The Story

To many, Cain is the epitome of a true hero – brave, steadfast, and unflinching under fire. But only he knows the truth behind the tales that built his reputation.

Inquisitor Amberley Vail once again digs into the Cain archives, presenting a collection of the commissar’s strangest and most remarkable missions. Hunt the origins of a warp-tainted plague threatening to drown Lentonia in the undead. Relive Cain’s early career with the Valhallan 12th Field Artillery, as they try to repel a tyranid invasion on a desolate mining world. And follow him into danger once again when the mysterious death of another commissar leaves Cain’s own life hanging in the balance…
