Lord of the night a Zso Sahaal Story!

Ave Dominus Nox!

In this novel written by Simon Spurrier, commander Sahaal of the first company, after Sevatar, comes back from the dead. From the dead? Not really, he was just lost in the warp for ten thousand years.An his return is not what he expected, his most precious artifact has been taken... for this, all the hive world of Equixus will suffer!

Mita Ashyn is a young psyker and agent of the holy inquisition. She has no idea of the danger she will find on Equixus, danger from outside but also inside the inquisitor retinue.
Written by Simon Spurrier
In a different style from the other Night Lords Books, we follow the two parallel story of Sahaal and Mita Ashyn.

The author takes time to describe the memories of Sahaal, event from the Horus Heresy when Konrad Curze was still walking with his legion.Sahaal a still the vision of what the Night Lords might be before ten thousand years of decadence.

The hive city of Equixus is described with a lot of details. The life of the citizens from underhive to the spire is described and tell us what it means to be one man between billions.

I appreciate the book, it shows us another vision of the Night Lords, not a vision of warband and mighty daemon prince, but the vision of the strategy and logic of a single commander from the heresy.
