The Divine Word

A Horus Heresy short story

Fighting alongside the Raven Guard Legion, Marcus Valerius questions whether or not there are greater forces at work in the universe...

READ IT BECAUSE
The first seeds of what will become the Imperial Church are sown in this tale. Commander Marcus Valerius thinks he's tapped into this fledgling faith when a gut feeling saves his forces from a certain doom. But are his new visions divine, or is his mind deceiving him?

THE STORY
Despite being prohibited by the Imperial Truth, the religious text known as the 'Lectitio Divinitatus' has gathered many believers from across the galaxy. Fighting alongside the Raven Guard Legion, Marcus Valerius of the Therion Cohort has long scorned those who seek to deify the Emperor, but a flash of inspiration leads him to question whether or not there are greater forces at work in the universe...

Written by Gav Thorpe. This story also appears in Legacies of Betrayal, book XXXI of the Horus Heresy.

The audiobook edition is read by Ian Brooker.
