BL3223 The Twice-Dead King: The Omnibus (PB)

The Twice-Dead King Omnibus

Drink deep of the majestic Necrons in a new omnibus collecting two epic novels and four short stories, The Twice-Dead King Omnibus by Nate Crowley. The first two stories recount the tale of the spurned noble Oltyx and his quest to reclaim ancestral lands from devious betrayers, before defending them against those who would see the dynasty undone as soon as it has risen.

In addition to the two novels, one novella and three short stories tackle the Necrons from widely different perspectives. The novella Severed brings us to the vaunted Sautekh dynasty, where the Stormlord himself has charged Zahndrekh and Vargard Obyron with putting down a rebellion. ‘One Million Years’ pits the eternal Necrons against the ambitious Leagues of Votann aboard an awakening Necron ship. ‘The Life of Jethras the Martyr’ takes us to the other side to see how a lowly pilgrim found a moment of glory in fighting back against the hated Necrons. Finally, ‘Patience’ tells the story of a Voidborn crewman who encounters Astartes, Necrons, and... something else for the first time – and lives to tell the tale.
