Legion abnett5/29/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() The Armour of Contempt - How exactly did Colonel-Commisar Gaunt and his people not turn traitor while on occupied Gereon? Simple: they shielded their souls w/ the armor of contempt. On Anacreon Sextus, an ancient world w/ structures so massive they could only be monuments to the God-Emperor of Mankind, the Ghosts have to make do w/out Gaunt's leadership while the Archenemy attacks here & there, hideous monsters stalk them at night, and entrepreneurs turn a buck wherever they can. The Tanith First and Only were disbanded, no longer Gaunt's Ghosts, and rolled into the 81st Belladon. The idea that he and his men could return from a Chaos-occupied planet w/out any taint of Chaos is heresy, and the Inquisition is not pleased. His Last Command - Gaunt was gone for so long, he and his men were assumed dead and the mission a failure. Gaunt has to adapt to weapons and enemies he hasn't seen anywhere else, with almost no support, while Chaos space marines nip at their heels. Local conditions are horrific as the planet and populace are bled dry to feed the Archenemy's campaign. Traitor General - Gaunt and comrades infiltrate the Archenemy-occupied planet of Gereon to assassinate the titular character. Don't worry, the rest of the series will wait. If you're not familiar w/ Warhammer 40k, start w/ The Founding. If you read those reviews, you know I'm going to slap 5 stars on the book and slobber all over the author. ![]() ![]() I already reviewed The Founding and The Saint omnibuses. ![]()
