Darkness Eternal runs the gamut of the Warhammer 40,000 setting, featuring tales from Nate Crowley, Justin D Hill, Peter Fehervari, and many more. With a diverse range of characters from across dozens of factions, Darkness Eternal takes us into the worlds of the savage kroot, the ravenous tyranids, and the avaricious Leagues of Votann – and examines the Imperium of Man’s struggle for primacy against them all.
In One Million Years
, the Kin of the Leagues of Votann surround a necron ship, and it is up to a lowly apprentice cryptek to rally the undying legions and fend off the assault.
Altar of Maws
sees battling armies of waterborne t'au and Imperial forces on Phaedra unwittingly disturb a monstrous Chaos creature that has slumbered for centuries.
The Light of the Emperor
follows Apothecary Biologis Vultis of the Ultramarines as he educates a pious, inflexible preacher on the value of science and knowledge while a tyranid swarm closes in.
The infamous Black Ships ferry imprisoned psykers to Terra from across the Imperium, to feed the astronomican. The Devouring Void
explores what happens when one Black Ship drifts too close to the edge of a hive fleet's warp-shadow, finding itself stranded in realspace and under alien assault.
Own Worst Enemy
features the legendary pilot Lucille von Shard facing off against an unusual and deadly foe on the Great Grass Plains. Behind the controls of the enemy craft is a rookie, and death seems to follow wherever he flies.
Arcady Pride
is set in the immediate aftermath of Traitor Rock – Minka Lesk drinks with Blanchez and Yedrin in the ruins of the city they've finally conquered, telling somewhat sanitised stories of old Cadia.
When the t’au bring down an Imperial Navy Lightning Strike Fighter, Major Wulf Khan must venture deep behind enemy lines in Nightsider Imperialis
. Will Khan rescue the pilot before they – and the secrets they carry – fall into xenos hands?
A Forbidden Meal

In Eradicant
