Cover Description[1]

The Space Marines of the Adeptus Astartes are the defenders of mankind, the ultimate superhuman brotherhood standing against the evils of the galaxy. But even among their hallowed ranks, there are those who would turn their backs on their brothers and follow the path of the traitor. Gathered within these pages, you will find tales from the dark side of the Imperium – remember, that which can defend, can also betray...

The Masters, Bidding

By Matthew Farrer

The Dreadnought master of an Iron Warriors warband, Chengrel, has made his home from an crashed Ork Krooza on a planet where the Imperium of man doesn't reach, and finds an unexpected windfall in the form of a cache of Eldar Spirit Stones. He sends out envoys to his peers to invite them to win them with a bid and a story of destruction to impress him. He is answered by Hodir of the Night Lords, Drachmus of the Word Bearers, Emmesh-Aiye of the Emperor's Children, and Khrove of the Thousand Sons. Each has their own tale, and the winner secures a prize of priceless value.
