While Gaunt is on Gereon and the Tanith First is left without a senior commander, the regiment is merged with a Belladon covert unit and becomes the 81st—1st Recon. Takes place two years after Only In Deathso the emotional trauma they suffered in that book has at least settled down.
Blood Pact After the gruelling events on Jago, the Tanith First agnett removed from active service for the first time since its founding and sent to Balhaut to perform garrison duties. The Warhammer 40, roleplaying game Dark Heresy subsequently incorporated this apparent san by renaming the reduced-capacity cells as overcharge packs and the single-shot cells as Hotshot packs.
The regiment is taking part in the campaign to capture the ancient step-city Sparshad Mons, occupied by abnet Blood Pact and disturbingly warped nocturnal predators. These findings only cause more issues when the Blood Pact attempt to storm Hinzerhaus, and the Ghosts are forced to mount a defence against a superior foe.
But then Gaunt is called in to help with the interrogation of a prisoner, who claims to have vital information he will reveal only to Gaunt. However, it would have been good to know just what this vital information was After Novemberthe first five novels from First and Only to The Guns of Tanith were reprinted with new cover art by Adrian Smith; Smith has since drawn every cover illustration to date, with the exception of The Iron Star which used a stock image of the Tanith regimental badge.
Just a moment while we sign you in to your Goodreads account. The title refers to both Gaunt and Wilder. Rawne and his team escape in the confusion — one of the Chaos forces came to shoot the prisoners — and regroup.
Very bizarre, very Abnett, very memorable. This mission took place at the same time as the main assault in bloid the pct of the Tanith First was deployed.
Blood Pact is a hell of a great, fun read and the ending absolutely floored me. Without giving anything away there is bood character by the name of Jaume who make s a living by fabricating memorials for deceased members of the Imperial military to be given to their families.
The epilogue is such a touching scene abnnett Gaunt is simply remembering dsn horror that was the fighting for Balhaut.
As he is sheltering under cover from the furious onslaught of incoming Chaos fire he turns to a junior PDF officer and together they lead the charge that breaks the Chaos resistance. Feb 25, Student Teacher rated it really liked it. This on is called Blood Pact. Now I have to admit, after reading Sabbat Worlds, I was a little worried about this one. I read this book in three days, and for me thats pretty quick.
I usually sit down to read ;act about 30 minutes each night before I go to bed, with some books its difficult to plow through one chapter a night, with Blood Pact, I was worried about the lack of sleep I was getting. This book is excellent. This was not a combat oriented book, the Ghosts have been pulled back from the front lines after twelve years of near-constant war.
Throughout the book, many of the characters we have come blooe know and love make the briefest of cameos throughout the entire story. That being said, of the characters Abnett does put in the story, he does a good job.
In the first chapter of the book, we meet E. Montvelt, he oversees things on Pier Thirty-One on a huge orbital platform called Highstation. In twelve pages Abnett does an excellent job telling the story of E. Montvelt, how he inherited his job and most of his possessions from his late uncle, and how Balhaut, the scene of one of the greatest victories and greatest tragedies of the Sabbat Worlds Crusade, has changed in the last psct years.
In twelve pages I felt that I knew E. Montvelt, and this guy is beyond a minor character. We never see him after the first chapter, but I was sucked into the book in those twelve pages. When a small Blood Pact kill team gets on to Balhaut and assaults a commissariat headquarters yes, I said that correctly the action is fast-paced and brutal!
I would also like to point out that Dan Abnett is the master of the 40k car chase. Although there are some drawbacks to this story, it does feel like a nice change of pace for the Ghosts. I hate you Dan Abnett! I love you Dan Abnett! Highlight it to see the OMG part of the book!
