Wolf King
by Chris Wraight
medium-paced
This was a solid story following events from Prespero. Seeing the Wolves being chased down was a surprising reversal given their reputation.
An exhausted and lost Russ working through finding answers was the core bit of the story. Somewhat hypocritical coming from the decimation of the Thousand Sons for their "sorcery", while Russ putting faith into his Bones/Runes and taking the council of a Rune Priest who also fought with "a skull headed staff, firing void lightning at his enemies" during the battle against the Alpha Legion, had me scratching my head. There was a note towards the end however where Russ openly admitted to the hypocrisy there and that it would need to be faced in the future.
The injection of the Blood Angels and the mystery of the intruder aboard the Hrafnkel was interesting to try and figure out during the main conflict between the Wolves and the Alpha. Was a great short story and feels very important in the grander scheme of the 30k alliances
