Historia
After seven long years of conflict, the Horus Heresy nears its end. But now, as the Warmaster Horus marches on Terra to rip his father from the Throne, the seat of the arch-traitor’s power lies empty. Cthonia, a world once dominated by brutal murder-gangs, is occupied by the Emperor’s praetorians—the indomitable Imperial Fists. For the Sons of Horus, this outrage demands a reckoning.

It is the 32nd millennium, and the Imperium is at peace. The Traitor Legions of Chaos are but a distant memory, and the many alien races that have long plagued mankind are held in check by the Space Marines. When a mission to exterminate one such xenos breed on the world of Ardamantua draws in more of their forces, the Imperial Fists abandon the walls of Terra for the first time in more than a thousand years.

Historia
In the jungles of Aztlan a deadly war of the shadows is being fought. And the Imperial Guard are losing. The alien t’au, though few in number, greatly outclass the soldiers of the Imperium and are taking a serious toll on their forces. A call for aid is answered by the fearsome Mortifactors Chapter, who come to the world full of grim purpose. Adoni, an unblooded neophyte yet to earn his place, is amongst the war party. As the Mortifactors descend into the jungle vastness, they hunt for a killer, one that will not die easily but that whom Adoni must slay if he is to become part of the Chapter and a Taker of Heads.

The Vagrant is his name. He has no other. Years have passed since humanity's destruction emerged from the Breach. Friendless and alone he walks across a desolate, war-torn landscape. A s each day passes the world tumbles further into depravity, bent and twisted by the new order, corrupted by the Usurper, the enemy, and his infernal horde.

The Gods are dead. The Magelord Salazar and his magically enhanced troops, the Augmentors, crush any dissent they find in the minds of the populace. On the other side of the Broken Sea, the White Lady plots the liberation of Dorminia, with her spymistresses, the Pale Women. Demons and abominations plague the Highlands. The world is desperately in need of heroes. But what they get instead are a ragtag band of old warriors, a crippled Halfmage, two orphans and an oddly capable manservant: the Grim Company.

Renowned for both martial and arcane skills, the mighty warcasters of the Iron Kingdoms possess the unique gift of bonding with and commanding mighty warjacks on the field of battle. Yet despite their inborn abilities, these powerful soldier-sorcerers began as novices, forced to harness their talents in rigorously structured military training programs or through the brutal crucible of battle.

Best anthology so far
I’m slogging my way through the HH in release order. This is the best anthology I’ve come across so far in the series. You’ll love it, ESPECIALLY if you like night lords and or imperial fists.

A great anthology
The order of the stories only gets better. The plots all feel very important to the universe at large. The final two stories are hands-down the best.

Great set of stories
I like all of the stories, though I felt like a few of the middle ones were to short. Until I realized how they all sort of meshed together and gave Illumination to previous books in the series. I specifically loved the last story with Sevatar, after listening to the Talos trilogy im so happy I got to hear something from his unique perspective

Really nice selection of novellas
The story of Sevatar narrated by the always brilliant Keeble stands out. Overall a nice sidestep from the long novels of the series

Almost Perfect
This anthology collection is a standout among its peers, though not without is issues. The opening story , "The Crimson Fist" by John French is a bit of a chore to get through. The wooden dialogue and bizarre decision to flip between first and third-person perspectives make for a slow and jarring experience, but still manages to have its moments of quality during the more focused action sequences.
Coming off the heels of a rocky start, Graham McNeil sets the pace for the rest of the collection with "Dark King", a window into the fractured mind of Konrad Kurze and the enmity between the Night Lords and the Imperial Fists, a theme that serves as a through-line for the rest of the collection (with some Raven Guard to taste).
Dan Abnett and Gav Thorpe give a good showing with "The Lightning Tower" and "Raven's Flight" respectively. The former details Rogal Dorn's fortification of the Imperial Palace and further examines the rift between him and the Night Haunter, while the Latter sheds further light on the Plight of Corax and the Raven Guard on Istvaan V. After these, McNeil returns with a short prequel to his previous masterwork "Mechanicum" providing more on the origins of the Kaban Project for which it is named.
Shadows of Treachery goes out with two absolute bangers by Graham McNeil and the legend himself, Aaron Dembski-Bowden. The first, "Death of a Silversmith" is an intimate and tragic tale told from the perspective of a dying Remembrancer recalling the life that led to his end. The main event however, is ADB's triumph of a novella "Prince of Crows".
Bowden is well known for his fantastic work on the Night Lords and this is no exception. His portrayals of Sevatar and Kurze are positively dripping with personality and menace from start to finish. The use of dry and sinister humor to juxtapose the twisted brutality of the 8th Legion is brilliant and I cannot wait to continue their story in his later titles.
Overall this entry into the Heresy is a wonderful pallette cleanser after the disappointment that was "Fear to Tread" and shows off some of the best talents in the Black Library arsenal.

Some hits, mostly misses
I am happy to see more of the night lords in here, particularly sevatar. Beyond that there are some full Imperial Fist stories. If you've read Deliverance Lost, you get to see the lead up to the rescue of the Raven guard so that was pretty neat and then there's a kind of precursor to the founding of the lodge.

In no particular order
2 novellas and 5 short stories. The Night Lord stories are very good (the Dark King and Prince of Crows). The Silversmith (Graham McNeill) is very intriguing. And the Lightning Tower by Dan Abnett can't be missed neither.
