Was fantastic, such a enjoyable read and so well put together but next time could you not hurt me so much?

Pulled from an active warzone by order of their Primarch, Chaplain Helios and Sergeant Theron are sent on a secretive mission to retrieve something vital to the ongoing crusade, with only a handful of the new Primaris Marines for company. Meanwhile on a ravaged Imperial world, the Genesis Chapter lead a doomed defence against the forces of Warsmith Bolaraphon of the Iron Warriors.

All told it’s a smart, well thought-out standalone story that nicely fleshes out a little of the Indomitus Crusade, and takes one of the most interesting looks yet at the Primaris Marines. The conclusion you draw will depend a lot on your preconceptions, as it’s not laid out in black and white for you, but it certainly poses some questions. If you’re at all interested in the ‘current’ state of 40k, this is one to check out.
