Begin the legendary fall of the Imperium with Horus Rising, Book 1 in the Horus Heresy saga from Black Library. Written by Dan Abnett, this essential Warhammer novel is the starting point for one of the most important stories in Warhammer 40,000 history.
Set in the 31st Millennium, Horus Rising follows the Imperium at the height of its power. The Great Crusade has carried humanity across the stars, reuniting lost worlds and expanding the Emperor’s vision of galactic unity. But just as victory seems within reach, the Emperor withdraws to Terra and entrusts command of the Great Crusade to His favoured son, Horus, newly named Warmaster.
Before he becomes the galaxy’s greatest traitor, Horus is humanity’s champion, a heroic Primarch admired by his warriors and trusted above all others by the Emperor. Yet his promotion also awakens jealousy, ambition, and doubt among his brother Primarchs, planting the first seeds of the catastrophe to come.
Horus Rising is the first chapter in the epic Horus Heresy series, the story of the civil war that nearly destroyed the Imperium and changed the future of humanity forever. Perfect for fans of Warhammer 40,000 novels, Horus Heresy books, Space Marines, Primarchs, the Great Crusade, and Black Library fiction, this is the must-read starting point for the saga.
