Every two weeks we read a new book in the WH40k universe and discuss it on our podcast. We invite you to read along with us and join in on our conversation via comments, Twitter, email, or vox cast.
For this episode, we’re reading The Traitor’s Hand by Sandy Mitchell. You can purchase it at Amazon, Black Library. and Audible.
From the back of the book:
Ciaphas Cain’s latest missions takes him and his Valhallan regiment to the planet of Adumbria to defend against an approaching Chaos invasion. However, infighting with fellow Imperial Guard regiments from the world of Tallarn, commanded by an old “friend’ of Cain’s from the Schola Progenium, and the uprising of a sinister cult on the planet puts paid to any hopes of an easy life.
Questions to ponder after reading The Traitor’s Hand:
- Did you like the book?
- Which parts stood out to you?
- Cain and Beije are great foils in this book. Did you understand Beije and the Tallarns?
- Cain insists he is a coward. Three books in, does this argument hold water for you?
- What do think about the tribunal? Was Beije “right?” Is Cain being merciful?
- Did you like the idea of the guard being caught between Khorne and Slaanesh?
- Were the Slaaneshi cultists good foils?
