“If you’re looking for a reason why you shouldn’t cross the Iron Hands Chapter, Wrath of Iron provides that reason. Action-packed, bloody, gory and page-turning, Chris Wraight shows that he is making himself a Black Library author to watch out for.” ~The Founding Fields

#4 - The Gildar Rift by Sarah Cawkwell (reviewed by Bane of Kings)

EJ Davies, in his desperate bid to catch up with the phenomenal back catalogue from Black Library, turned his attentions to book 7 in the Space Marine Battles series of novels, and bids welcome to the inaugural novel by Black Library newcomer Sarah Cawkwell and the first novelisation of the little known Silver Skulls Space Marine chapter and their mission to keep the threat of Chaos from engulfing the Gildar Rift.

“A slow start but a powerful second half which turns this novel into a wonderful, visceral ride through The Gildar Rift.” ~ The Founding Fields
