Story
Morgravia Sanctus is being hunted. Something terrible has happened to her, a profound trauma that has left behind ‘red dreams’ and a physical agony that can strike at any moment. Her life in danger and her memory fragmented, she arrives in the low-hive of Blackgheist to escape her pursuers and search for ‘the Broker’ – a trafficker in memories and psychic mind manipulation. Soon after, a plague sweeps the city, turning its citizens into blood-hungry monsters. Order collapses, death and slaughter are rampant.

In a bleak corner of the city of Valgaast, the House of Malveil awaits. A place of darkness, its halls throb with a sinister history. Its rooms are filled with malice. Its walls echo with pain. Now it stirs eagerly with the approach of an old heir - Colonel Maeson Strock of the Astra Militarum has returned home to his ancestral mansion. He is a man broken, both by the horrors of war and by personal loss, and he has come home to take up the mantle of Planetary Governor.

Story
There are many secrets in the dark places of the Old World. From the cities of the Empire, where men huddle together in defiance of the darkness that sweeps across the land, to the vast, savage forests that house all manner of terrible beasts, everywhere you look there is a dark tale or ancient legend waiting to be unearthed. For the vampire Genevieve Dieudonné, several of these ancient horrors and blood-soaked nightmares are about to come to light, as she is plunged into battles for her life and her very soul across three linked novellas.

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, a collector of historical oddities, presides over a gallery full of the most dangerous artefacts - and people - of the galactic past. Orikan, a chronomancer without peer, draws zodiacs that predict and manipulate the future.

In the midst of a vast gas nebula lies a remote watch-station, hanging silently against a tapestry of dying stars. It sits alone, patiently awaiting lost travellers adrift in the freezing vastness of the void. To such souls it appears as a blessing, a safe haven from the warp storms that wrack the immaterium and destroy the ships of those foolish enough to test the tides. To Captain Arq and her crew, it is one thing - refuge. But things are never so simple.

Of all the Emperor’s sons who fell to Chaos, it is perhaps Magnus the Red whose tale is the most tragic. Sanctioned because of his desire for knowledge, chastised, judged, and shattered to his very elements – there is much for the Crimson King to feel vengeful for. Yet revenge is not the only thing that draws him to Terra alongside the Warmaster’s besieging armies. He seeks something, a fragment, the missing piece of himself that lies within the most impregnable place on the planet – the inner sanctum of the Imperial Palace.

Publisher's Summary
A Warhammer Horror novel.
Seven families arrive at an ancient castle, expecting a grand feast - but each guest brings the weight of their own expectations, not to mention hidden agendas and a thirst for revenge that will push them into darkness as evil approaches.
Listen to it because: Experience a Warhammer Horror take on a classic setup - people gathering for a meal, each of them carrying their own secrets. It's sure to terrify and delight you in equal measure.
The story: Guests are arriving at the ancient castle of Mhurghast, summoned by the reclusive Count von Koeterberg. They expect a grand feast, and something more. The ambitious Baron expects to inherit the Count's wealth; the wife of a broken swordsmith hopes to revisit happier times; the fallen priest prays for a chance of recovering his faith.
Seven families, each with their own dark secrets. Each with their own hidden agenda. Each marked for revenge. Doomed to discover the depths of horror and despair, it is not a night of revelry that awaits them, but a night of unprecedented terror. Son will turn against father and daughter against mother, as daemonic evil descends upon Mhurghast.
Written by C L Werner. Running time 7 hours and 1 minute. Narrated by Claire Wyatt.

Cool story, expertly performed.
I've been enjoying the handful of Warhammer Horror titles I've bought so far, but this one easily stands above the pack. There's a few characters to juggle, but thankfully Claire Wyatt breathes life into each one, providing a performance of each of their voices that keeps them distinguishable, while also adding nuances which make for a very entertaining listen. The story itself is well paced and maintains a steady sense of dread. Well worth your time.

Age of Sigmar
Age of Sigmar has no weight to it, everything is generic. The Narrator does what she can, but at the end this book sounds more like a scary-ish bed time story for kids and not like a Warhammer horror.

5/10 it was okay
I think the story was bland. Not really enthralling but it was okay. The narrator makes some of the voices really hard to listen to, but that might be the point.

mediocre
it took me forever to realize this was an age of sigmar book. not really into tye new game because it lacks the depth of story. and it shows here.
the characters arent that bad, predictable cut outs, but not badly. just a rather lukewarm slasher movie type thing.
problem was the world. always felt a bit off when they described things. even mentions of the stormcast and sigmarite didnt do it.
a big issue is the degradation of threat. used to be daemon were this horro, this force of death amd destruction that even the lowest forms of were horrors. people spoke of them behind closed doors and clutching holy symbols. now they throw out khornes name like they were speaking to someone forgetful about their pet, and if they dont keep using its name the other person will lose track of the conversation.
again, speakong the names of these beings should be a thing of dread even worse then facing some of their minion demons. just the glyph is suppose to give a sense of dread and horror, hearing the name spoken makes you bleed from the eyes, milk spoil, corrupt your body nd soul. if your lucky. in the real bad case it draws their attention. other threats being witch hunters killing to prevent temptation or spread.
but thats not here. its more like they are talking of the neighors half rabid dog on a chain.
predictable, overly slow, and just generally pointless otherwise.

Another great Warhammer horror
Interesting and fleshed out characters and some good tension throughout. The ending is a bit predictable though if only because it's a horror novel, Voice performance was very good which is the norm for GW's audiobook range. If you feel like the current Warhammer isn't Grimdark enough for you I would suggest giving this and the other Warhammer horror books a read.

Good listen if you want some filler
This is a reasonable listen. The performance is great but the story is a formulaic slasher story with a warhammer twist. The characters are engaging enough and the story makes sense. It isn't anything special but that doesn't make it bad.
