This was my first read by this author and it was riveting. It was a great insight into the Necrons and a bit chilling at times. I was sneaking reads of this one while at work. It is one of my top ten warhammer 40K books.

Grand story of the Fall of Damnos as portrayed in the 5th edition Main Warhammer 40000 rulebook. The story is written from teh perspective of various sergeants of the second company and has intermittent flashbacks to better illuminate portions of their character. The author portrays the culture of the space marines well and sheds new light on the machinations of the Necron forces including the inter-political struggles that are rarely seen or portrayed in other novels. Highly recommend this book to anyone wishing to better understand the neuron forces or anyone looking for a thrilling sic-fi adventure in the 41st millennium.

Best 40k fiction on Necrons! Lots of characters and fluff, great story as well!
