The Emperor's Pawns: A Warhammer 40,000 Horror Story of Sacrifice, Corruption, and Despair (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798304615228)

In the grim darkness of the 41st millennium, even the Emperor's chosen are not immune to corruption. The Emperor's Pawns is a harrowing tale of survival, betrayal, and sacrifice that takes readers to the heart of a decaying manufactorum on the toxic world of Gathar Prime.

When an ancient Necron artifact awakens deep within the ruins, Brother-Captain Kael and his Deathwatch squad are dispatched to contain the threat. But what begins as a routine mission quickly spirals into a nightmare as the artifact's malevolent power twists reality and burrows into their minds. As the squad is torn apart by abominations, madness, and the artifact's whispers of forbidden truths, Kael must confront not only the horrors of the warp but the darkest corners of his own soul.

Haunted by visions of his failures and the voice of the Emperor himself, Kael faces an impossible choice: embrace the artifact's promises of salvation or sacrifice everything to destroy it. But even in victory, the artifact's insidious will may not be so easily extinguished.

Perfect for fans of Warhammer 40,000 and grimdark horror, The Emperor's Pawns delivers a relentless blend of psychological terror, visceral combat, and existential dread. This is a story where faith is tested, truth is malleable, and survival comes at the ultimate cost.
