Flight of the Eisenstein is an upcoming Science Fiction novel by James Swallow based in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, published by the Black Library. Scheduled for a spring 2007 release, this will be the fourth book of the Horus Heresy series, started with Horus Rising and continued in False Gods and Galaxy in Flames. The story is set 10,000 years before the timeframe of the Warhammer 40,000 setting, and expands upon the tale of the Horus Heresy, the galaxy's greatest civil war and the root cause of many issues in the Warhammer 40,000 universe.

The Eisenstein, mentioned in the name of the book, is a strike cruiser of the Death Guard Legion commanded by Captain Nathaniel Garro, one of the few commanders in the Traitor Legions that remained loyal to the Emperor. The title specifically refers with the Eisenstein's escape from Istvaan III (the site of a genocidal attack instigated by Warmaster Horus) and its voyage across the galaxy to reach the Emperor of Mankind on Terra.
