Flight Commander Lucille von Shard: Hero of Bacchus, fighter ace, and a living legend heralded for her valour and piety. Propagandist Kile Simlex, responsible for her fame, shares none of this renown. Condemned to the ignominy of a scribe’s cubicle cell, his chance at liberation comes as a cryptic vid message claiming to be from Shard herself, requesting his aid.

Von Shard’s Triumphant Return
Revisado: 11-27-24
Denny Flowers has once again crafted a masterpiece that interweaves the grim darkness of the 41st Millennium with a cautionary tale of how fascism perpetuates itself through media. It would bring me joy to no end if this series was even half as long as the Ciaphas Cain series. Long live Lucille Von Shard!

Volpone Glory covers the exploits of the soldiers of the 50th Volpone of the Royal Volpone Regiment. Their ranks are filled with proud and arrogant soldiers who come from the noble families of Volpone, earning them the name 'Bluebloods' among the Astra Militarum. Nick Kyme breathes life and humility into the members of this otherwise supercilious regiment as they battle against impossible odds.

Volpone Glory! Ignore "KeEp pOliTiCs oUt Of WH"
Revisado: 04-13-22
A truly fantastic piece about the horrors of fascism, eternal war, and classism; please ignore the morons in this section complaining about "virtue signaling" (which isn't a thing, every work of art ever is political in some way). Competently written characters with clear motivations meet a truly epic plot to create the saga of a regiment of aristocrats and nobles coming to terms with the fact that their senses of superiority exist only in their own minds. 10/10.

The scattered worlds of the Elara's Veil nebula were once protected by the oath of unity sworn by three mighty Chapters of the Adeptus Astartes. The Star Scorpions were undone by flaws in their genetic coding. The Celestial Lions were ravaged by the Inquisition for sins they did not commit. Now, after hundreds of years, only the Emperor's Spears still keep their vigil. They are barbarian watchmen against the Outer Dark, bloodied but unbroken in their long duty.

Aaron Dembski-Bowden's Masterwork- 10/10
Revisado: 03-11-22
I've loved ADB ever since I picked up The First Heretic at age 13; yet I say without bias that Spear of the Emperor is perhaps the greatest Warhammer 40,000 novel ever written. It is not simple bolter-porn; the themes this book explores are the things of high-art. These are themes such as the dehumanization of the poor endemic to fascism, the inhumanity of blind transhumanism, the inevitable rot that comes with imperialism, the patriarchal nature of fascist ideology, and the contradictions between the image of the Astartes as heroic despite them in reality being psychopathic and fascistic child-soldiers. Is it still cheesy, grimdark, and bleak? Of course it is; it's still Warhammer 40,000- it's simply Warhammer 40,000 from the perspective of someone who isn't an emotionless donut. Speaking of emotion, Kelly Hotten knocks the narration out of the park; every line is read with a soulfullness that isn't present in many Warhammer works. I truly hope to see more from her in the grim-dark future of the year 42,000!
