When the flow of desperately needed weapons for the Astra Militarum slows to nothing from a newly founded forge world, there's only one man able and (un)willing to investigate… Ciaphas Cain, Hero of the Imperium. With Cain's desperately sought-after retirement on the line, the Imperium's most reluctant commissar must navigate insidious assassination attempts against his person, legions of mutinous skitarii, heresy within the upper echelons of the Adeptus Mechanicus itself… and a hidden foe, pulling the strings, with an agenda that could threaten the future of Imperial rule in the Damocles Gulf.

A HÍRES KOMISSZÁR, CIAPHAS CAIN és két elpusztított egységből összeállított forrófejű regimentje, a Valhalla Gárda a háború kellős közepén találja magát a tau űr szélén egy birodalmi előőrsvilágon. Miközben az Astra Militarum a világszintű felkelés megfékezését tervezi, képes lesz-e a ravasz Cain komisszár megtalálni a valódi lázítót, mielőtt a bolygó örökre elveszik a Birodalom számára?

Enjoy tall tales of adventure and derring-do in Commissar Cain's memoirs. Tau, necrons and Chaos cultists all fall before the self-proclaimed hero of the Imperium... In the war torn future of the 41st Millennium Commissar Ciaphas Cain, hero of the Imperium, is respected by his peers and an inspiration to his men - at least that's what the propaganda would have you believe. The reality is very different, for Ciaphas is simply looking for an easy life and a way to stay out of peril. However, fate has a habit of throwing him into the deadliest situations, and luck (mixed with self preservation) always manages to pull him through and onto the loftiest of pedestals. To survive Commissar Cain must dodge, bluff and trick his way out of trouble, even if it increases his status beyond his control!
