What I will say is the story takes readers to pretty fantastic locales like alien planets, a seemingly deserted space station, and a mysterious Forge World. All that as well as the unique Ark Mechanicus and a host of support ships meant they should have been ready for anything, unfortunately unforeseen events like the biggest Titan having a princep with PTSD while the Black Templars are being hunted meant that they weren't as prepared as well as they wanted to.
