Description

From the burning skies above Signus Prime to the unholy shadows of daemon-spawn, Fear to Tread immerses the reader in a brutal chapter of the Horus Heresy where the blood of angels is the key to damnation. Here Sanguinius and the Blood Angels are sent to Signus by Warmaster Horus, not only to fight external horrors but to confront the latent corruption within themselves — the Red Thirst, the hidden genetic flaw that whispers chaos in their veins.

Inside this volume:

• Daemonic incursions of Khornate power awaiting the Blood Angels’ arrival.

• A struggle not merely for territory, but for sanity and soul — both of the Legion and its Primarch.

• Political undercurrents, betrayals, visions, and the looming weight of destiny as Sanguinius faces the unspeakable horror of what his Legion may become.

This is more than just another battle; it is an inward war, an anguished chapter of lore that defines the path the Blood Angels will walk after the Heresy.

Collectible Value

• Series Position: Volume 21 of the Horus Heresy, making it essential for collectors completing the main novel series.

• Popularity & Reputation: One of the most notable Heresy novels, remembered for its exploration of the Blood Angels’ tragic flaw.

• Condition Sensitivity: Mass-market paperbacks suffer wear; crisp copies with no spine creases, bright covers, and minimal shelf damage command premium value.

• Rarity Aspects: While not a “limited edition,” first printings from 2012 are less common in excellent condition; later reprints or used copies often degrade.
