Publisher's summary

The Dark Angels Legion is couched in layers of mystery and secrecy, harkening back to the days of the knightly orders of Caliban that helped to raise their infant primarch. But Lion El'Jonson's greatest strength often proves to be one of the most divisive issues amongst his sons - rarely can any two commanders agree upon one single course of action from the start.

As they seek to bring the world of Byzanthis to compliance, Chapter Masters Astelan and Belath are among those with very different notions of what victory might require.

Interesting

I enjoyed the dichotomy between the two chapter masters and how the story highlights the division withing the legion between the terran born and calibanites.

A deep understanding of internal conflict

This is a great short start to help you understand the deep internal conflict between the Calibanite and Terran space marines in the dark angels legion, I recommend this to dark angel fans in general and especially horse hair see fans, that want to understand the internal conflict of the dark angels better.
