Continue the opening fall of the Imperium with False Gods, Book 2 in the Horus Heresy saga from Black Library. Written by Graham McNeill, this essential Warhammer novel follows the Great Crusade as the seeds of Horus’ betrayal begin to take root.

The Great Crusade continues to carry humanity across the stars, and the Emperor of Mankind has entrusted command of His armies to His favored son, Warmaster Horus. But beneath the surface of Imperial glory, jealousy, resentment, and darker influences begin to fester. When Horus is wounded on the world of Davin, he is forced into a battle far more dangerous than any campaign of conquest, a struggle against temptation, corruption, and the first whispers of Chaos.

False Gods is a key novel for readers following the fall of Horus, the rise of Chaos, and the beginning of the galaxy-shattering civil war that defines the Horus Heresy. It also reveals the true colors of Erebus of the Word Bearers, one of the most infamous villains in Warhammer 40,000 lore.

Perfect for fans of Warhammer 40,000 novels, Horus Heresy books, Space Marines, Primarchs, Chaos, and Black Library fiction, False Gods is a must-read chapter in the story of how the Imperium’s greatest hero became its greatest betrayer.
