Farseer
Black Library unleashes its latest Heretic Tome upon the world.
Rogue trader Janus Darke is a desperate man. Once rich and famous, a string of bad luck has brought him to the brink of ruin. Dreaming of past glories, lost in despair, the last thing he wants is to accept a commission from two mysterious strangers – a voyage to the Eye of Terror, the dark heart of the galaxy. But Janus finds himself in more danger than he could have ever imagined, as he is pulled into the middle of a deadly power struggle between the elder and their ancient enemy, a daemon prince of Slaanesh.

Farseer
Rated 4 out of 5 by Richard
First book I read from BL, totally sucked me into the hobby. Cannot wait to get myself another copy, Great characters and a nice storyline. Nice and oldskool gritty and something thats missing from newer books.
The start of an obsession
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lindsey
I loved this book, it was the first WH40k novel I ever read and I always felt that it deserved a sequel, to truly finish what Janus and the farseer had started by the end of the novel.
please write a trilogy william king

Superb background material
Rated 4 out of 5 by David
I've loved this one for many years, particularly for the imaginative and thorough investigation of some of the most interesting background 40K has to offer, the Fall of the Eldar and the birth of Slaanesh. I'm interested to know what is considered heretical or non-cannon conforming about the original, however.
