Maybe 'positive ending' would be more accurate. The WH40K universe is indeed not pleasant, but the previous GG novels have always had the Ghosts being victorious and achieving their objectives (if at a cost). This book doesn't really have that (the next one, which I have finished and will review soon, doesn't either).


I'm just saying that the lack of positive ending in The Armour of Contempt and Only In Death is much more characteristic of the IP than the previous volumes in the series, and that I enjoy such because of how rare they occur within the Fantasy/SF genre. :)

I haven't read Blood Pact yet, though the paperback copy will be released next week.
