Once a Killer

Delve back in to grimy underbelly of the sprawling city of Varangantua in this great Warhammer 40,000 crime anthology.

In the sprawling hive city of Varangantua, crime lords and gangers, law enforcers and vigilantes live cheek-by-jowl - killers and thieves from all echelons of society doing what they can to survive.

In 'Once a Killer' by Mitchel Scanlon, Sanctioner Kirian Malenko goes after a former pit fighter on a killing spree, but knows more about the killer than he cares to admit. 'Chains' by Jonathan D. Beer sees a cartel and a gang lord go head to head for the release of a valuable prisoner, and in 'Slate Run' by Mike Brooks, a bodyguard gets more than she bargained for when she is hired for a gilded function...

These collected tales of murder, betrayal and corruption feature stories from Nick Kyme, Denny Flowers, Jude Reid, and lots more besides.

Welcome to Varangantua - watch your back.
