Book 8 in the Global best selling The Horus Heresy: Siege of Terra series. There is no way out. The walls have fallen, the gates are breached, and the defenders are slain. It is the end and the death. After seven brutal years of civil war, the Warmaster stands on the verge of victory. Horus Lupercal, once beloved son, has come to murder his father. The Emperor, a shining beacon of hope to many, an unscrupulous tyrant to others, must die. The lives of uncountable numbers have been extinguished and even primarchs, once thought immortal, have been laid low. The Emperor’s dream lies in tatters, but there remains a sliver of hope. Now, at the final hour of the final day, the Emperor rises. With him come his Angel, his Praetorian, and his Captain, all determined to enact terrible vengeance. Yet the hope is slim, for the Warmaster sees all and knows all, and the ultimate victory of Chaos is at hand. There is no way out.

The second volume of book 8 in the Global best selling The Horus Heresy: Siege of Terra series. Terra is besieged. Humanity’s salvation lies on a knife edge. The Warmaster Horus’ bloody seven-year crusade has led to this: the cradle of mankind, where he is to kill his father, the Emperor. With the war at this critical juncture, Sanguinius, primarch of the loyalist Blood Angels, braves the horrors of the Warmaster’s flagship, The Vengeful Spirit, with a single purpose in mind: to slay his brother Horus, decapitate the Heresy once and for all, and stop the forces of Chaos from taking Holy Terra. But at the whim of a Warmaster fallen so far from grace, the Dark Gods will not make Sanguinius’ task an easy one, and as the war edges towards its explosive, bloody conclusion, events are about to unfold that could either save humanity, or plunge it headlong into an eternity of darkness.

In Marvel’s first original novel, Rocket and Groot face every villain in the galaxy after saving an android Recorder with powerful secrets. A talking racoon and a mobile tree walk into a bar. Then things start to get weird. With the Guardians of the Galaxy on hiatus, Rocket Racoon and Groot are out looking for some quick cash. But during a spaceport brawl, the infamous pair wind up rescuing an android Recorder from a pack of alien Badoons. Turns out, this particular Recorder is holding some highly sensitive, incredibly powerful information. The kind of information that some very powerful forces—including the ruthless Kree Empire and the stalwart Nova Corps—would do anything to get their hands on. Now, to protect their newfound android friend, Rocket and Groot are about to embark on an interplanetary escapade of epic proportions.

The final part of book 8 of the global bestselling series, "The Horus Heresy: Siege of Terra". The Great Angel, Sanguinius, lies slain at his brother’s hand. Terra burns as reality itself unravels and the greatest bastion of civilisation teeters on the brink of annihilation. Desperate defenders gather, banding against the rabid traitor hordes. The Hollow Mountain, host to the pilgrims of Euphrati Keeler, is one of the last redoubts, held by the Dark Angels while the unclean host of Typhus lays siege. Malcador the Sigillite sits ablaze on the Golden Throne, trying to buy his master more time. But time is running out… Guilliman races across the stars to reinforce the Throneworld. Will he return to ashes, where a Warmaster of Chaos has ascended to godhood, or will the Emperor have triumphed? And at what cost? It all comes down to one final, climactic confrontation: the Emperor versus Horus. The father against the son.
