Siege of Vraks - (Warhammer 40,000) by Steve Lyons (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Understand just how the Death Korps of Krieg have earned their reputation as the Imperium's most ruthless fighters in this gripping tale of desperate defence and defiant loyalty.

Vraks is an armoury world that is vital to the struggling Imperium and its efforts to resist the wider threats to humanity. The planet is a key link in the long supply chain that keeps the beleaguered Imperial regiments stationed around the Eye of Terror and ready for war.

The stoic Death Korps of Krieg have been assigned to this desperate world's defence. The grim soldiers of this regiment are born to serve the Emperor, as below Krieg's irradiated surface is a human factory, existing only to produce soldiers destined for the front line in the Imperium's most toxic and gruelling warzones. These indoctrinated soldiers are unflinchingly loyal and willing to sacrifice themselves without question or regard to ultimately win victory.

And they will need all these qualities to face the horrors awaiting them on Vraks...
