Read an excerpt:

«The sky above Isstvan III did not just darken; it died. From the decks of the vengeful fleet, the virus bombs fell like black rain, a silent curtain of death descending upon a world that had dared to defy the Warmaster. It was not a battle, but an execution on a planetary scale.

Down in the trenches, the loyalists looked up, expecting the roar of orbital bombardment, but they met only a terrifying, clinical silence. Then the life-eater virus struck. In seconds, the lush greenery of the world turned to grey sludge, and the air itself became a toxic soup of decay that dissolved flesh from bone.

The betrayal was complete. As the atmosphere ignited into a worldwide firestorm, the survivors realized the truth: their brothers had not only abandoned them, they had condemned them to be erased from history.»
