About this listen

Book 9 in the Gaunt's Ghosts series.

Returning from a long mission, Gaunt finds that his Ghosts are no more. Assigned to a new unit, he must fight to be reunited with his men and save them all from a deadly threat.

Listen because....

It's the end of Gaunt's Ghosts! No, really, the Tanith First has been disbanded, and Gaunt has been sent elsewhere. What will it take to draw them back together? How about a stonking big Chaos attack...?

The story:

The Tanith First are no more. Moved into another regiment under a charismatic new commander, the loyalties of the former Ghosts are put to the test when Colonel-Commissar Gaunt, long believed dead, returns. As the enemy overrun the Imperial forces, clashing with Crusade command, and suspected of harbouring the taint of Chaos, Gaunt must fight not only to be reunited with his Ghosts, but to stop all their lives being thrown away in an unwinnable war.

Written by Dan Abnett. Read by Toby Longworth. Running time approximately ten hours and 19 minutes.

the entire series is amazing.
I know most people prefer the horus heresy series and the space marines but the astra militarum build such amazing law.

Abnett has a knack for taking the most insane settings, and turning them into utterly believable dramas. His trick is brutally honest characters, warts, scars, trauma and all.
While not my favourite book in the GG series, this one still packs more punch than Mike Tyson on a good day. Brutal. Political. Bloody. Heroic.
No wonder I have started collecting the GG audio books, even though I've read them all before.

Abnett shines in galaxy as a master storyteller

I'm still rating this book quite high, because I'm comparing it to the rest of the series which I've absolutely loved. I still enjoyed the characters and voice work, but I kind of felt like this was a bit of a nothing story. The result of this book would be the exact same if Gaunt had just gotten the Ghosts back from the start, nothing changes

Not my favourite

Incredible series and this is no exception! How Dan Abnett has managed to write pure gold book after book is beyond me.

Expertly narrated as always, with Toby at his finest.
Gripping story with plenty of compelling tension worthy of the Gaunt Ghost series.
Battle scenes were intense and immersive.
Great listen.

Gripping listen right to the end.

First time I listened to this title I didn't enjoy it too much but after a 2nd listen you notice and appreciate the subtleties of how many beloved characters are permanently changed and scarred from the Gerrion Mission.

Different but still Good
