Writing: Only War, Chapter One, Part 2
The following is Part 2 of Chapter One of my novel submission to Black Library, entitled Only War.
Chapter One, Part 1 is located here.
A flicker out of the corner of Nomu’a’s eye snatched his attention, but before he could turn his head the car was violently rocked to one side. A flash of white light and a deafening explosion assaulted his senses, and Asal grunted when his head was slammed into the window. The car crashed back to the ground, and the driver cursed.

Another explosion went off, and shrapnel thunked into the car’s armor, one fragment hitting the rear windshield and starring the glass.

The total length of the three chapters of Only War is approximately 21,000 words.
Here is the setting: In the Arcadia Sector, a branch of the Tau Empire is impinging on the Imperium. Depleted due to other conflicts, the Imperial forces in this sector have not yet made a move against the xeno threat. The Tau wish to continue their expansion into a sparsely inhabited section of Imperial Space. In the meantime the two sides negotiate to continue the peace, while secretly making preparations for war. It is only a matter of time before a spark ignites a conflagration...
