The Infinite and the Divine is a Warhammer 40,000 novel written by Robert Rath, presented here in a hardback edition (item code BL3319) published by Black Library.

Before the being called the Emperor revealed Himself, before the rise of the aeldari, before the necrontyr traded their flesh for immortal metal, the world was born in violence. Even when they inhabited bodies of flesh, Trazyn the Infinite and Orikan the Diviner were polar opposites. Trazyn is a collector of historical oddities who presides over a gallery full of the most dangerous artefacts – and people – of the galactic past, while Orikan is a chronomancer without peer, drawing zodiacs that predict and manipulate the future.

When an artefact emerges that may hold the key to the necrons’ next evolution, these two obsessives are drawn into a multi-millennia game of cat and mouse that ends civilisations, reshapes timelines, and changes both of them forever. As riddles unwind and ancient secrets are revealed, one question remains: will their feud save the necron race, or destroy it?

Spanning ten thousand years of Warhammer 40,000 history, from the era of the Horus Heresy to the present day, this story offers a rare and richly detailed look at two of the necrons’ most iconic characters. The dynamic between the scheming Trazyn and the arrogant, fate-obsessed Orikan – equal parts rivalry and reluctant partnership – forms the heart of the novel, blending dry wit with epic, empire-spanning stakes. Since its release, the book has become one of Black Library’s most beloved and popular novels of the last decade, making it essential reading for any fan of the necron dynasties or of character-driven 40K fiction.
