Experience tales of dark journeys, ill tidings, and doomed souls in this Warhammer Horror anthology.READ IT BECAUSEThe uncanny, the strange and the downright terrifying await you in this thrilling anthology packed full of darkness and horror.DESCRIPTIONAn arcane evil has awoken in these worlds defiled by endless war. Perhaps it was born from the madness of violence. Or else it has always existed, hiding among restless shadows with eyes half-closed. But now, it slithers and creeps into the wreckage of people’s lives, those who have already survived the unthinkable. It covets the lost, the lonely and the hopeless, pushing them down their fateful paths — a reclusive historian, searching for a ghostly ship; the crew of a ruined craft who must brave a slow, inevitable death; an old woman seeking redemption in a hostile wasteland. For these are the stories of journey taken, choices made and the power of the human spirit when dark forces come hunting.CONTENTSThe Colonel's Monograph by Graham McNeillFive Candles by Lora GrayTesserae by Richard StrachanGhost Planet by Steven SheilPentimento by Nick KymeBone Cutter by Darius HinksInto Dark Water by Jake Ozga

    Spine-chilling Warhammer Horror novel set in the Warhammer 40,000 Universe. The planet of Theotokos is dying of thirst. For years, Arch-Deacon Ambrose has done everything in his power to help the people. Charismatic, virtuous, pious, he is as beloved as the corrupt Cardinal Lorenz, who hoards the water reserves beneath the Ecclesiarchal Palace, is feared. When Lorenz dies, Ambrose’s moment has arrived. As good as his intentions are, he is also proud. He will be the saviour Theotokos needs, and bring the relief of water to the suffering. But there is something worse than drought to come. Lorenz’s death unleashes a terrible plague, soon to be known as the Grey Tears. As Ambrose struggles to save Theotokos from the Grey Tears, the unnatural nature of the plague becomes clearer and clearer, and he is driven to more and more extreme measures. He fears malign forces lurk behind the Grey Tears. The truth is worse than his most awful imaginings.
