Lieutenant Sven Tveskoeg is a killing machine whose DNA marks him out as less – or perhaps more – than human.
He’s survived everything a hostile universe can throw at him, but it’s not luck that’s kept him alive. A lucky man wouldn’t be picked out of obscurity to serve in the army of his Emperor. OctoV, a machine-human hybrid who appears to be a teenage boy but is actually immeasurably older. Maybe Sven’s survived out of sheer bloody-mindedness (although let’s not forget his enhanced healing abilities and preternatural strength), but he’s not one to dwell on such matters….
