The Beast Must Die is the eighth volume in The Beast Arises series of novels.

Synopsis[]

The Imperium has been brought to the edge of extinction by an Ork invasion of unprecedented scale and depth. Piecemeal strikes against the invaders prove ineffective -- for every Ork fleet destroyed, five more appear. The only solution is to find and kill the Orks' Warlord -- the Great Beast. Surely if its leader is killed, the Greenskins' empire will fall apart in agony of infighting and confusion. Lord Commander of the Imperium Koorland assembles a mighty army, but when they arrives on the Orks' homeworld, the forces of the Imperium discover they have disastrously underestimated the might and ingenuity of their enemy.
