The Horus Heresy: Mortis (Paperback) The Horus Heresy: Siege of Terra Book 5
Experience relentless warfare where the forces of Chaos attempt to breach the palace walls and destroy the Imperial defenders. A chapter of a giant conflict unfolds as legendary Titans rise against each other.
When the walls tremble under the weight of Titans
Following previous heavy fighting, Imperial forces on Terra face ever-increasing pressure from traitors and the rising power of Chaos. Warmaster Horus sends the giant god-engines of Legio Mortis to breach the fortifications of the Imperial Palace itself. Standing against them at Mercury Wall in a duel of ancient rivals is the resolute Legio Ignatum. While the defenders battle against time and the collapse of defensible positions, individuals inside and outside the walls strive to counter the malign influence of the warp.
