Cadia has stood in grim defiance against the enemies of the Imperium for ten thousand years, an indomitable bulwark against the forces of Chaos... but now, the Thirteenth Black Crusade has come, and there will be no victory. Here, Minka Lesk will be tested in the very fires of a world's destruction.

Join Minka as she grows from a young Whiteshield struggling to survive in the ruins of the kasr she called home, to a sergeant haunted by loss, fighting to excise the rot at the heart of an Ecclesiarchy world, to a lieutenant who will do anything to break the stalemate in the grinding mire that is the Siege of Crannog Mons.

She will battle on, bloodied but unbroken, for the honour of Cadia itself.

This omnibus contains three novels, and two short stories, all written by Justin D Hill.CONTENTS– Cadia Stands (novel)– The Place of Pain and Healing (short story)– The Battle of Markgraaf Hive (short story)– Cadian Honour (novel)– Traitor Rock (novel)
