A host of irreverent adventures pit that notorious hero of the Imperium, Ciaphas Cain (and his friends and allies) against all the many monstrous foes that plague humanity.

DESCRIPTION
In the war torn future of the 41st Millennium Commissar Ciaphas Cain, hero of the Imperium, is respected by his peers and an inspiration to his men – at least that’s what the propaganda would have you believe. The reality is very different, for Ciaphas is simply looking for an easy life and a way to stay out of peril. However, fate has a habit of throwing him into the deadliest situations, and luck (mixed with self preservation) always manages to pull him through and onto the loftiest of pedestals. To survive Commissar Cain must dodge, bluff and trick his way out of trouble, even if it increases his status beyond his control! This eBundle contains the almost complete story of the commissar’s adventures, from his early postings to his less-than-peaceful retirement.

This digital bundle includes the following eBooks in a zip file:

If you’ve never read any of the Ciaphas Cain Novels…well, you’re in for a treat. Cain is a very different character from the rest of the “Heroes” of the Imperium and I’m glad to see him getting some attention. These two options for great for collectors or first-timers alike. The Limited edition bundle breaks down to a price of $25 per book – or you could get all those stories and MORE in a digital format from Black Library in that eBundle deal.

 

Ciaphas Cain – some people are just born lucky.
