The new Black Library novel Questoris of the Throne places you on the Mechanicum Throne of an ancient war machine on a quest to defend a dying world.
Although descendant knight Asrien Balator is only moments away from claiming the throne that is his birthright, the land itself is engulfed by mysterious snowstorms, and Imperial Knights disappear among broken castles and ravaged kingdoms.
The petty squabbles of quarrelsome barons and the pressures of a king’s court are no longer Asrian’s greatest concerns. Madness arises from the planet’s troubled past, and only the future king can hope to unite the country against long-forgotten debts.
The earth moves and the Winter Knight rides.
With a combination of posturing, intrigue and action, Questoris of the Throne by Victoria Hayward offers new ways to explore the 41st millennium.
And this isn’t the only Warhammer 40,000 novel we’re featuring today.
The classic novel Cypher: Lord of the Fallen by John French is the next release in Black Library’s line of illustrated and annotated editions. Relive the enigmatic thief’s escape from Holy Terra with a new author’s introduction and commentary throughout, enlivened by all-new illustrations that really set the scene for Cypher’s theft.
Ben Counter’s Gray Knights also returns to the Black Library in a suitably ornate new special edition.
This novel is one of the most beautiful windows into the daily life of the Gray Knights chapter and their eternal war against the empyrean. A mortally wounded demon hunter banishes a powerful demon to the Warp for a thousand years, but as we know, that’s not necessarily a long time on the scale of Warhammer 40,000.
A thousand years have passed and Ghargatuloth is back for more damage, but he failed to fight on one point: a waiting group of Gray Knights who knew exactly when and where their prey would arrive. Unfortunately for the Knights of Titan, the demon’s return is part of a perilous prophecy, and their task will be a little more complicated than simply taking down the offending heretic.
These three books will soon be available for pre-order. In the meantime, start reading about the Imperial Knights with Royal Blade, Knight’s BladeAnd Knights of the Imperium – all available now on the Black Library app.
