Black Hearts

Gunman Rainer Getzau ended up in prison for something he did not commit — the command simply did not believe the obviously absurd explanations that the woman he killed served Chaos. In the face of death, when the noose is... already swaying above his head, Rainer and his cellmates receive a final chance. If they do not agree to work for Count Manfred Waldenheim, carrying out the most unpleasant tasks in the name of the Empire, they will be executed like ordinary criminals. This is why the Black Hearts are forced to undertake risky and dangerous secret missions, facing Chaos cultists, ratmen, dark elves, bandit leaders, and more. They fight to stay alive, but they are denied what they desire most — freedom. The omnibus includes the novels "Curse of Valnir," "Broken Lance," "Corrupted Blood," and the stories "Getzau's Recklessness," "Rotten Fruits."
