Nicht alle Primarchs wurden gleich erschaffen. Magnus, der Primarch der Thousand Sons, betrachtete sich lange Zeit als einen der loyalsten Söhne des Imperators, obwohl er für den Einsatz psionischer Kräfte seiner Legion immer wieder zur Rechenschaft gezogen wurde. Er war es, der zuerst von Horus’ Verderbnis erfuhr, doch als er versuchte, seinen Vater zu warnen, zog er den Zorn von Leman Russ auf sich - Primarch der Space Wolves und selbsternannter Scharfrichter des Imperators. Die Kunde von dem darauffolgenden Angriff auf Prospero ließ unter den Legionen die Grenze zwischen Freund und Feind verschwimmen. Im Streben nach Einheit führte das Imperium seinen eigenen Untergang herbei. Dieser Sammelband beschreibt die Tragödie von Magnus' Fall, einem Schlüsselereignis der Horus-Häresie. Die >New York Times Thousand Sons Prospero brennt< sowie mehrere Kurzgeschichten zeigen zwei sehr unterschiedliche Seiten des gleichen Konflikts ...
