Book 3 in the Farsight Series

Deep within the burning deserts of Vior’los, an exile both revered and reviled lives in isolation. Commander Farsight has set aside his alien blade and advanced XV8 battlesuit, believing his beloved enclaves can finally thrive without him. But peace is fleeting in the galaxy.

When a Tyranids bio-fleet descends upon Vior’los, threatening to devour the world entirely, Farsight is forced out of retirement. To defend his adopted home, he must once more take up the blade he swore to leave behind.

Read It Because

Farsight returns to the battlefield. As a relentless alien invasion tears apart Vior’los and political manipulation festers within the T’au Empire, the legendary commander must confront both external annihilation and internal betrayal. Written by Phil Kelly, this novel delivers high-stakes battlesuit action and deep insight into the fractured soul of the T’au.

The Story

As the Tyranids consume Vior’los and its enclaves collapse, an internal threat emerges in the form of the scheming Ethereal Aun’Va, whose influence tightens even as the world burns. Reduced to a final stand with just eight warriors remaining, unlikely allies are forced together. Among them is Torchstar, a young rebel wielding battlesuits torn from Aun’Va’s control.

With extinction looming and faith in the T’au Empire tested to its limits, Farsight faces his greatest trial yet – one that will determine not only the fate of Vior’los, but the truth behind the blade he carries.
