4.0

A decent 40k novel, and the first in a series. The book has a wide range of characters, from the ruler of a large galactic empire, to lowly scribes in a hive city on earth. This book has character development and diversity covered. The range of battles is no different. From small skirmishes in the cramped halls of an imperium space ship, to large fleet batttles in the vacuums of space. The story is good enough to pull you in, but not quite there when it comes to total immersion. Really my only complaint in the book.
