Only War: Stories from the 41st Millennium is an anthology of short stories released in 2022.

Description

In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war.

Throughout the Imperium and beyond, tales are told of heroes and villains – indomitable Space Marines, valiant soldiers of the Astra Militarum, inscrutable Aeldari, and ferocious Orks – locked in endless battle. Some seek simply to survive, others to atone for their mistakes through sacrifice. From Saint Celestine, to Ahriman of the Thousand Sons, to the lowly rank-and-file of the Imperial Guard, each will play their part, but none will escape their duty... or their fate.

This Warhammer 40,000 anthology contains 24 short stories featuring both new and established characters from the 41st Millennium.[1]
