The Enemy of my Enemy

An Astra Militarum story

After a decade of grinding trench warfare, a new threat arises that may cause the unthinkable: an alliance between man and ork!

READ IT BECAUSE
Nate Crowley's Black Library debut takes a very simple premise – can human and ork fight together against a common foe? – and turns it into something quite special indeed.

THE STORY
For a decade, the Astra Militarum have been stuck in grinding trench warfare against the alien orks. General Pyrrhus, commander of the ""Golden Eighth"" hates the world of Cavernum Tertius on which he is trapped. He hates the unmoving nature of the war. But most of all, he hates his opposing number, the ork warboss who has dubbed himself "General Taktikus". But that all changes when the tyranids arrive. With a common foe to fight, can Pyrrhus and Taktikus do the unthinkable and unite in an alliance that could save them both?
