The Morghul

With his final breath, a young corporal once admitted to Eamon Tauk that had he known he would die that day, he would have fought alongside the mutineers who killed him instead of opposing them. Determined not to go to his grave with the same regrets, Tauk defects to the Narmans, only to find himself now leading a force insanely outnumbered by the Marines he abandoned.

Elia Gyanis is Tauk's woman inside Narman's Pyke. She is alone and vulnerable, but working feverishly to convince disgruntled conscripts to abandon their Samaari commanders and join the Narman rebellion. Gyanis is driven not only by the merits of a just cause but also so that the sacrifice she made to divert Marine suspicions away from her would not have been in vain.

Haeli Deboara paid for her freedom from a Kanarisian concentration camp with the lives of her sons. Now liberated, she fights not only to free others but to ensure those responsible for her losses are punished with a crippling defeat they will never forget.

And amongst it all is the mysterious Morghul, an extraterrestrial race with a desperate need to escape Kanaris, but depending on Tauk for the means to do it.

Caught between a half million Space Marines and an imminent alien invasion, the question for Tauk becomes not if he will meet his demise on Kanaris, but whose hands will eventually strike him down?

Join Eamon Tauk and his allies as they battle overwhelming forces on a planet teetering on the brink of annihilation and prepare for a breathtaking showdown that could change the course of humanity forever
