While loyalist and traitor forces clash on a thousand battlefields across the galaxy, a very different kind of war is being fought in the shadows - a war of subtlety and subterfuge, unknown to many, but one that surely holds the key to victory for either side.

silent war

good book but short stories with no clear link to the main story line of the other books l.

So much critical lore!

I’m not usually a fan of the anthologies, but this is one of the best books in the series. Lots of critical background…and as always…more questions. Two stories about Loken!

Some good moments but mostly drudge.

The moments with Malcador were top notch, I guess I should praise BL writers for their attention to detail covering stuff that should in many cases have been covered twenty or more books ago. Thankfully we’re getting it now, what would I have done if I didn’t know the details of the space wolves sent to observe the Night Lords?

Shadow War that the Sigilite has with the traitors.

Only issue I have is I hoped this would’ve been in chronological order instead of released date for each story.

compilation of great stories
