Soul Drinkers--fearless, devout Space Marines of the Emperor--go after a sacred weapon stolen from them by another Imperial faction. The Soul Drinkers' most powerful psyker will brook at nothing less than vengeance for this insult. The Emperor's men, unified in the cause of the Imperium, are divided. Alliances are broken--and the most insidious of humanity's enemies--the demonic forces of Chaos--flourish.

After the Soul Drinkers Space Marines are excommunicated, Imperial Agents are dispatched to destroy the once loyal chapter. Sarpedon, the leader of the Soul Drinkers, is hell-bent on discovering a way of curing his battle brothers of their mutations. Despite many false trails, Sarpedon has now stumbled upon the most tentative of leads, one which promises his troops a final redemption in the eyes of the God-Emperor--if they can survive long enough to reach him.

Phalanx, the great star fort of the the Imperial Fists, is playing host to Space Marines from half a dozen Chapters, alongside Inquisitors, Sisters of Battle and agents of the Adeptus Mechanicus. They have come together to witness the end of a Space Marine Chapter, as the once-noble Soul Drinkers, now Chaos-tainted renegades and heretics, are put on trial for their crimes against the Imperium. But dark forces are stirring and even this gathering of might may not be enough to guard against the evil that is about to be unleashed ... --Publisher.
