Product Description

Review

" If Dan Abnett held a military rank in the Warhammer 40,000 he would be the 'Warmaster'... Not only does Abnett portray the Imperial Guard structure beautifully but he also does the same job for those that serve within the regiments...'Blood Pact' was bang on the money as far as I was concerned. I'm going to be catching up with this series as soon as I get the chance..." - Graeme's Fantasy Book Review

Product Description

Following the disastrous events on the fortress world of Jago, where the Imperial troops are nearly defeated by Chaos, the Tanith First are pulled back from the front line for rest and recuperation. After two years' garrison duty on Balhaut, however, lack of action is sending the Ghosts stir crazy. Against a backdrop of increasing bad behaviour and insubordination, Gaunt is secretly summoned by Guard Intelligence. They have captured a high-level Chaos officer, but their interrogation is getting nowhere; the man is refusing to speak to anyone except Gaunt. The information the prisoner holds is crucial to Imperial war effort, but will he survive to ever tell it? As a crack force of Chaos insurgents closes in for the kill, Gaunt finds himself trapped in deadly game of intrigue and murder, where no one can be trusted, and the fate of the Sabbat Worlds Crusade hangs in the balance.

4.0 out of 5 stars Book 12. Very well done., Nov 24 2009

By	Detra Fitch (USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Blood Pact (Hardcover)

The Tanith First had been pulled back from the front line of the Sabbat Worlds Crusade and eagerly await news of their next deployment. They have been on Balhaut about a year now. The men have gotten bored and that can be a dangerous thing.

Colonel-Commissar Ibram Gaunt is called in to Section with no warning. An enemy prisoner is being interrogated, but refuses to speak with anyone except Gaunt. Mabbon has defected from the Blood Pact and is somehow connected with Gaunt's last mission on Gereon. Having been a high ranking enemy soldier, Mabbon has information that can help the Imperium win the war. Before Gaunt can learn the information, they are attacked. Gaunt must flee with the prisoner and go to ground until Mabbon's intelligence can be revealed.

The Blood Pact is determined to kill Mabbon before the information is given. The Blood Pact infiltrate the ostensibly secure crown world with enough confidence and ability to stage a frontal assault on the Commissariat's headquarters. They have a highly trained witch, using her warpcraft, to help seek out Gaunt and Mabbon no matter where they flee. Gaunt has no idea how far the Blood Pact's reach and influence extends and must be extremely cautious as to whom he trusts for help.

**** FOUR STARS! Though this is the twelfth book in the Gaunt's Ghosts series, new readers will have no trouble fully understanding and enjoying it. This story easily stands on its own. I found this to be a fast paced adventure with bits of humor thrown in to help break the tension at times. Dan Abnett certainly knows his craft! Very well done indeed! ****
