Fire Made Flesh (Paperback)

Fire Made Flesh by Denny Flowers is a grimy, violent descent into the underhive of Necromunda, packed with everything fans of the setting crave: scheming Guilders, holy fanatics, cursed domes, and the ever-present threat of complete annihilation.

Here’s the core breakdown:

• Setting: The Fallen Dome of Periculus — once a bustling hub of both legitimate and black market trade — is rediscovered, and suddenly everyone wants a piece.

• Protagonist: Tempes Sol of the Guild of Light, a cold and calculating Guilder obsessed with reason, enlightenment, and extinguishing the religious fanaticism of his rival, Lord Silas Pureburn.

• Conflict: At the heart of the novel is their bitter ideological feud — science vs. faith — playing out in one of the most dangerous places in the underhive.

• Horrors Within: But Periculus is more than just rubble and forgotten tech. It's cursed. Something twisted still dwells within: monstrous entities, forbidden archeotech, and a madness that spreads like a plague.

• Themes: Obsession, ambition, the fragility of reason, and how Necromunda chews up even the most cunning minds.

Why it hits: It's Necromunda at its best — a noir-drenched, claustrophobic crawl through decaying corridors where every choice is bad and survival is never guaranteed. And as with all things Necromunda, no one gets out clean..
