The Beheading

Guy Haley

My reading

With the orks beaten the military thread closes, but the failure of the Imperium's governance, now laid bare, becomes a catastrophe in its own right. Drakan Vangorich, Grand Master of Assassins, resolves to remove the High Lords whom he holds responsible for humanity's near destruction. The novel serves as the political epilogue of the whole cycle and accounts for the Beheading and for Vangorich's sole rule thereafter.
