Forges of Mars

The Mechanicus of Mars has been distinguished by an insatiable thirst for discoveries since ancient times. When Archmagos Lexell Kotov learns of the missing ancient expedition that set out to find the source of life in the Universe, he immediately assembles a large research flotilla to follow in its wake. At Kotov's disposal are powerful machines and fearless warriors of the Adeptus Mechanicus. Experienced soldiers of the Imperial Guard and renowned Space Marines have joined his crusade... At the edge of the known cosmos, unimaginable wonders and priceless findings await them, but the path is treacherous and full of dangers, both external and internal. And perhaps those who believe that some mysteries are better left concealed are right, for they pose a threat not only to the flotilla but to the entire Imperium as well.
