Synopsis

Formed in the aftermath of the Horus Heresy, the Flesh Tearers, veterans of the Blood Angels Legion now cast adrift, gather behind their leader, Chapter Master Amit, and set out to forge their own destiny. When a mistake brings them into conflict with another newly-created Chapter of Space Marines, a legacy is forged that will haunt the Flesh Tearers for then thousand years... This is the origin story of the most savage and ferocious Chapter of Space Marines, fighting under the banner of the Flesh Tearers for the first time. These flawed heroes are brought to vivid life by Andy Smillie, the author of Flesh of Cretacia. Set only years after the Horus Heresy, fans of that series will find many links to the events of that galaxy-spanning conflict, while fans of Andy Smillie’s Warhammer 40,000 fiction will get to see how the saga of the Flesh Tearers all began.
