      You only think you know the story of the monster and his creator.The monster never asked for life or even his mockery of one. Victor Frankenstein never asked if he should pierce the veil of death. His cousin Elizabeth never asked for her heart to be torn asunder Obsessed with conquering death, Victor's compulsion crossed the border into madness. He robbed graves of what was buried within and Death of its sting. Horrified by his success, he abandoned his creation. Hated and hounded for his appearance, the creature's only crime was wanting a life he had not asked for. As the first of his kind, and in defiance and honor of his creator, he took the name Adam Frankenstein. Victor and Adam find themselves locked in an epic conflict that rages from Switzerland to Ireland and back, a struggle that ensnares Elizabeth, who is caught between the man she is engaged to and the one she loves. It is a clash that can only end in death. But thanks to Victor, death is no longer the end. In this, the true tale of House Frankenstein, you may find that the true Monsters of the Abyss are not what you have been led to believe.

      Ahriman, greatest sorcerer of the Thousand Sons and architect of the Rubric that laid his Legion low, continues to walk the path towards salvation, or damnation. Searching for a cure for his Legion, he is forced to consider - was the great ritual somehow flawed from the very beginning? The answer may lie within the mysterious artefact known as the Athenaeum of Kallimakus, a grimoire of forgotten lore which is reputed to contain the exact words of the lost Book of Magnus… or, perhaps, even a transcription of the primarch's deepest and most secret thoughts.

    • Explore the final stages of the New York Times Bestselling Series The Horus Heresy in this fantastic miniseries, a must have for all fans! After seven years of bitter war, the end has come at last for the conflict known infamously as the Horus Heresy. Terra now lies within the Warmaster’s sights, the Throneworld and the seat of his father’s rule. Horus’ desire is nothing less than the death of the Emperor of Mankind and the utter subjugation of the Imperium. He has become the ascendant vessel of Chaos, and amassed a terrible army with which to enact his will and vengeance. But the way to the Throne will be hard as the primarch Rogal Dorn, the Praetorian and protector of Terra, marshals the defences. First and foremost, Horus must challenge the might of the Sol System itself and the many fleets and bulwarks arrayed there. To gain even a foothold on Terran soil, he must first contend the Solar War. Thus the first stage of the greatest conflict in the history of all mankind begins.
