Introduction: The Fifth Crusade of the Black Library Series For fans of Warhammer 40,000’s foundational lore, the Horus Heresy novel series (published by Black Library) is essential reading. Horus Heresy Book Five: Tempest —often unofficially subtitled The 39th Theatrical Campaign by the fan community—is not a traditional narrative novel but a campaign sourcebook for the tabletop wargame The Horus Heresy (formerly Warhammer 40,000: The Horus Heresy ). Released in 2015 by Forge World, Tempest focuses on the Shadow War between the Alpha Legion and the shattered remnants of loyalist legions during the early years of the Heresy.
