Description A son of the Emperor has risen from his long slumber, and with him comes the wrath of the Ultramarines reborn. Fell times have come to the galaxy. Cadia has fallen, shattered by the unstoppable onslaught of Chaos. A Great Rift to the warp has torn across the stars, splitting the galaxy in two and spewing forth daemons and the long-forgotten horrors of Old Night. But all hope is not lost. Roboute Guilliman has returned to lead the Imperium out of darkness, launching a spectacular crusade the likes of which has not been witnessed since the fabled days of the Emperor. With the first phase of the Indomitus Crusade complete, the conquering Primarch sets his sights on home. But the forces of the Ruinous Powers have amassed in numbers never seen before. From the dreaded Scourge Stars come the putrid hordes of the Plaguefather, Lord Nurgle, and their pustulent eyes are fixed directly on Macragge. Guilliman must race back to Ultramar to unleash his new armies of Primaris Space Marines and confront the advancing Death Guard—and his traitorous brother, Mortarion. Why Read This Book? The Dawn of a New Era: Experience the monumental beginning of the historic Plague Wars, a defining conflict that fundamentally reshaped modern Warhammer 40,000 lore.
