The omnibus consists of three books and two short stories. One of the best warhammer 40k books i’ve read. Abnett un po’ d’immaginazione, le avventure di Gregor Eisenhorn ed i suoi compagni, raccontate dal punto di vista dell’Inquisitore, possono dare al lettore ore ed ore di divertimento ed emozioni.

Even Pontius Glaw, a major villain who can’t really DO much until the third book is given a strong sense of character when he converses with Eisenhorn. I’m still not quite clear and finished with my decision whether Eisenhorn is doomed for ommnibus since the line between pure intentions and malevolent righteosness is very fine in this book; Eisenhorn certainly impersonates the former, and most of his Inquisition colleagues fall victim to the latter, making Eisenhorn somewhat naive and blinded by his defenceless, somewhat faltering good will and readiness to better the Chaos-rotten Imperium by adn means necessary.

Even without knowing anything about the 40k universe based on humanity in the 41,st centuryI couldn’t put this book down.

There is tons of action. To view it, click here. I can see why it is held in such high regards by the fans. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim dark future there is only war. As a side note Abnett has one of the better Lovecraftian realisations in the characterisation of some of the Chaos elements I have ever read, and as a fan of much Cthulhu mythos fiction it is no small praise.

Eisenhorn and Bauer are alike in that they have both given their lives to serve a greater purpose, which is to protect the lives and stability of those around them.
