Contents

Dawn of War

Dawn of War is the first volume. It was first published in 2004 to accompany the release of Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War the computer game. The book narrates the conflict between the Orks, Blood Ravens, Biel-Tan and Alpha Legion on the planet of Tartarus. It also introduces characters such as Isador Akios and Gabriel Angelos

Ascension

Ascension is the second volume of the Dawn of War Trilogy. It differs from the original in the way that it does not follow the plot of Winter Assault. Instead, it follows the Blood Ravens Chapter, focusing on the conflict between the Biel Tan Eldar, Necrons on a Blood Ravens World, and the Blood Ravens themselves. It also explores the mind of Gabriel Angelos, over the destruction of his homeworld and the treachery of his battle brother, Isador Akios. It was first published in 2005.

Tempest

Tempest is the third volume. It was written and published to accompany the THQ computer game Dawn of War: Dark Crusade and was first published in 2006.

The Trials of Isador

The Omnibus edition not only has all 3 stories (modified slightly for that edition), it also contains a short story by the same author called the Trials of Isador. It came about because people were wondering why Isador behaved as he did in Dawn of War and this short story was written to explain. In it Gabriel Angelos reads a manuscript left behind by Isador. It is meant to be read in between the first Dawn of War novel and the second: Dawn of War Ascension
