The Space Wolves and Russ — books on the story line
The Space Wolves and Russ
The VI Legion from the Great Crusade and Prospero through Alaxxes and Trisolian. After the Heresy comes Russ’s separate later departure thread in Two Metaphysical Blades: its exact date is unknown, and Valdor’s departure is not the same journey. Read the M32 campaign as The Hunt for Magnus → Battle of the Fang: the novella is a direct prequel to the siege of Fenris. Russ’s later episode is not required as a prequel to that campaign. Bjorn connects the eras, but his presence alone does not make distant books immediate sequels.
