Soul Hunter

Soul Hunter - Aaron Dembski-Bowden,
Another 40k book I know, but they release that many there's usually one on the go, and the Black Library website is back up so theres even more temptation to get books....
This is the first in what I assume is going to be a series following the Night Lords, a renegade legion of geneticlly modified/enhanced "super soldiers".
The book revolves around one marine, the remnants of his squad in the remains of a company, as he struggles against factional squabbles, betrayals, the temptations of the Chaos Gods, failing logistical support, and inconvienent visions of the future.
A thouroughly enjoyable book, the set piece battles work well, with an effective tangent into space combat as well.  Just when you don't think the action can get bigger, the author pulls another rabbit out the hat...
