Genestealer Cults

Adrian Tchaikovsky

A sharp Genestealer Cults standalone that works well for new readers because it frames Imperial oppression, cult devotion, and alien contamination through one contained crisis.

Mark Clapham

A standalone Imperial Guard novel by Mark Clapham following the Mordian Iron Guard, famed for their rigid discipline, as they are deployed to a mining world afflicted by a spreading corruption. As panic and rebellion take hold, the regiment finds itself beset by enemies from both within and without the local population.

C.L. Werner

Set on a beleaguered Imperial shrine world, this novel follows the Adeptas Sororitas as civil unrest and rumors of monstrous four-armed figures signal that a hidden Genestealer Cult is rising from beneath the populace. It blends Sisters of Battle faith and warfare with the creeping horror of an alien insurrection.

Peter Fehervari

A darker Genestealer Cults novel with a strong horror tone, better for readers who already enjoy strange Imperial frontier stories.

Andy Clark

An Imperial Fists honour guard garrisons the mining world of Ghyre when a hidden cult erupts into planet-wide rebellion, forcing a Primaris Librarian to take command of a war with no fixed battlefield. Ill-suited to insurgency rather than siege defence, the Fists must adapt while contending with a powerful psychic enemy and a fractious, self-serving local nobility.
