'''Galaxy In Flames''' was written by [[Ben Counter]], and is the third novel in the [[Horus Heresy Series]]. A number of authors contribute to the series, but the storyline follows the same characters through [[Horus]]' descent into [[Chaos]]. In particular this installment of the series shows the tragic events on Isstvan III where the loyalist factions of Horus's Traitor legions were slaughtered with the use of Virus bombs deployed by Horus's fleet above. It is the announcement to the galaxy of the fall of Horus and the begining of the Horus Heresy.
The novel was first published in October 2006. Each print run has a different colour for the titles: First was gold, second in silver and third in bronze.
