Discover the First Ciaphas Cain Omnibus
Step into the 41st Millennium and explore the audacious adventures of Commissar Ciaphas Cain—a man whose supposed heroism is as much a product of clever survival as it is of propaganda. In this unforgettable omnibus, follow Cain’s tall tales of daring escapades, where Tau, Necrons, and Chaos cultists all fall prey to his uncanny knack for staying one step ahead of danger.
Why You Should Read It
Uncover the true, and often hilarious, nature of a self-proclaimed Imperium hero whose memoirs—sarcastically annotated by an inquisitor—reveal that luck, wit, and a relentless drive for self-preservation are his greatest weapons. If you’re ready for a blend of high adventure, humor, and unexpected twists in the grimdark future of Warhammer 40,000, this omnibus is your ticket to an enthralling ride.
The Journey Unfolds
In a galaxy ravaged by endless war, Commissar Ciaphas Cain is celebrated as a beacon of valor—at least according to the official narrative. The reality, however, is that Cain is simply a pragmatic survivor, always on the lookout for the easiest path out of peril. Yet fate has a peculiar way of thrusting him into the most dangerous scenarios, where his quick thinking, bluffing, and knack for trickery inadvertently elevate him to legendary status. This omnibus gathers the essential tales of his journey, including the novels For the Emperor, Caves of Ice, and The Traitor's Hand, along with the captivating short stories "Fight or Flight," "Echoes of the Tomb," and "The Beguiling."
Authored by Sandy Mitchell, this collection offers a unique, irreverent perspective on heroism in the Warhammer 40,000 universe.
