And if you have, you can read them again, like revisiting old friends.THE STORYIn the Chaos-infested Sabbat System, the massed ranks of the Astra Militarum - more commonly known as the Imperial Guard - stand shoulder to shoulder as they counter an invasion by heretical forces. Amongst the defenders of the Imperium are the troops of the Tanith First-and-Only, a displaced regiment forced to flee their home planet before it succumbed to the unrelenting assault of Chaos. Nicknamed 'the Ghosts', their specialist scouting role sees them thrown into the thickest of the fighting. Led by Colonel-Commissar Ibram Gaunt, they must evade the treacherous scheming of rival regiments and the lethal firepower of the enemy if they are to have any hope of achieving victory over the forces of Chaos.Written by Dan AbnettCONTENTSA Ghost Return (Short Story)First and Only (Novel)Of Their Lives in the Ruins of Their Cities (Short Story)Ghostmaker (Novel)Necropolis (Novel)
