Warhammer 40,000 tie-in series, My first novels were the Blood Angels duology Deus Encarmine and Deus Sanguinius (later collected in The Blood Angels Omnibus); one of the key characters on those books was the manipulative Inquisitor Ramius Stele, and as part of the project I wrote “Blood Debt“, a short story prequel detailing Stele’s fall from grace and guest-starring the notorious Blood Angel captain Erasmus Tycho.
