I think it's the best Space Marine Battles book. It's about a Black Templar sent to die an inglorious death fighting a losing battle to defend some dumb town full of humans.
It's also got plenty of cool Knight action, lots of stuff about the humans that are fighting too, it covers the whole battle
good characters and good 40k style action, even a little humor in just the right paces
