The prose and narration is good. Each of the three authors write a short story about their main character in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. The stories are tied together in this book because their three character are trapped together on a cemetery world. To pass the time and to have a closer connection in this bleak planet they decide to tell each other of a narrow escape from death they each had. Those stories they tell are the three short stories. It is a good Warhammer read but I do not know why it is listed under horror. Some of the regular Black Library books invoke more horror or suspense then these. After the narration before and in between stories I knew why the character were together before the second story was told. Worth a read but not a horror book. ( )

Not a terrible book. The stories are interesting and curious, but I felt little connection to the characters which is important in a horror story.

In general, there's something about the style of writing in the Warhamner novels that make it difficult for me to get into. The authors try to write in an epic, grandiose style that feels thick and dense but isn't pleasurable to read. As neat as the stories are and how rich and deep the lore of the Warhammer world is, they end up feeling like a slog..... ( )
