Long ago, the desperately brave expedition of Magos Telok, a fanatic who rushed beyond the ecumene in search of the “Breath of the Gods,” an ancient mechanism capable of pulverizing stars, became a legend. Thousands of years later, the ambitious Lexell Kotov assembles an Adeptus Mechanicus exploration fleet and sets out in the wake of the mad Telok. With the support of the Imperial Guard and Space Marines, the expedition searches for clues that may lead them to the most powerful force in the galaxy. But who can know what dangers lie beyond the Imperium and the inhabited world? © Translation of the Borogove annotation ( © Translation of the book taken from (
