The Story

Far from Terra, the isolated forge world of Diamantus faces extinction. A terrifying, mutated space hulk, crawling with the forces of Chaos, looms in orbit. Commanding it is the monstrous Datagnost Voldire, twisted servant of Vashtorr the Arkifane, a malevolent demigod of the warp.

As the apocalyptic threat descends, Captain Bail Sharr and the Third Company of the Carcharodons answer the call, fighting alongside the machine-worshipping Adeptus Mechanicus in a desperate battle for survival.

But amid the fire and darkness, the Carcharodons must confront more than just the enemy — they must face their place in the Imperium, their ancient traditions, and the question of whether monsters can still serve the light.
