Description
A Ciaphas Cain Anthology
This book brings together 13 uproarious short stories and one novella, focused on Ciaphas Cain, Hero of the Imperium. His stories are celebrated as heroic propaganda pieces, but he’s simply trying to stay alive in a hostile galaxy.
READ IT BECAUSE
Ciaphas Cain doesn’t mean to be a hero – he just can’t seem to help it. While trying to escape certain death, he somehow achieves unlikely victory after victory in the wildest and most dangerous warzones of the galaxy, to hilarious effect.
THE STORY
Ciaphas Cain is a true hero. Brave, stalwart, uncompromising, a cool head under fire… or is he? His legend has spread far and wide, but only Cain himself knows the truth behind his long and storied career.
Until now.
Inquisitor Amberley Vail once more delves into the Cain archive to present a selection of the man’s greatest and strangest exploits. From Cain and the Valhallan 597th hunting down the source of a warp-tainted infection that threatens to overwhelm the world of Lentonia with a starving horde of undead, to his early years with the Valhallan 12th Field Artillery fending off a tyranid invasion on a barren mining world, to the mysterious death of a fellow commissar that sees Cain’s life at risk (once again) as the killer’s attention turns to him…

We grade trading cards using the Cardmarket condition scale. Card grading is subjective, so minor differences in judgement can occur.
Near Mint (NM) – Very clean condition with little to no visible wear.
Excellent (EX) – Light signs of handling or minor edge/surface wear.
Good (GD) – Noticeable wear, but still generally presentable and playable.
Light Played (LP) – Clear signs of regular play, such as edge wear, surface marks or small imperfections.
Played (PL) – Heavy visible wear or damage, but the card remains usable.
Poor (PO) – Significant damage, alteration or wear.
Foil cards are assessed particularly carefully for scratches, creasing and clouding, as these defects are more visible on foil surfaces. Damage such as bends, water damage and altered/inked borders can significantly reduce a card’s grade.
Condition is selected per card variant. If condition is important to your purchase, please check the selected variant before adding it to your basket.
