This a collection of short stories involving the Warhammer 40,000 universe. If you hav'ent checked out Warhammer 40,000 or any black library publications...You are sure missing the boat!! This is the best collection of short stories to date(late 2002). There are several stories that have become full novels on their own. Especially, the Short story "Chains of command" about the passing of the torch to a new captain of the Ultramarines 4th company; Uriel Ventris. The short story picks up in the novels "Nightbringer" and "Warriors of Ultramar". There are several other GREAT short stories, Such as the title short story "Words of Blood" about following orders in the face of chaos cultists lead by a vile being called the "Manskinner". And, for all you "Eisenhorn" fans, there is "Missing in Action". A story about some strange murders and soilders who have been abandonned. Overall a great book.
