About this listen

A Warhammer 40,000 novel.

Drawn to a stricken world, the Ultramarines of Crusade Fleet Quintus, believed by many to be cursed, face a stark choice - fight a desperate last stand or doom a sector to warn the Imperium of the rise of a new Necron empire in the Pariah Nexus.

Listen to it because: this is the first Warhammer 40,000 novel based on the new edition of the game, and it's packed with amazing action, fantastic characters and tons of intrigue - everything you want in a novel of the Indomitus Crusade.

The story: for nearly 10 years, the Indomitus Crusade has waged a war of defiance and reconquest in the war-torn Imperium.

Attached to Crusade Fleet Quintus - dubbed the Cursed Fleet by many - the Ultramarines of the Ithraca’s Vengeance are drawn to a stricken world.

With millions enslaved, a malign necron technology siphons the souls of the innocent and heralds the Silent Kingdom’s expansion. The Ultramarines face an impossible decision: mount a desperate last stand to destroy the Pariah Nexus, or break away and damn the entire sector to bring word of this ancient foe’s resurgence to the only being capable of halting it - the Lord Primarch Roboute Guilliman.

Written by Gav Thorpe. Approx running time 9 hours 51 minutes. Narrated by Robin Bowerman.

At first I didn't vibe with the story too much, but as I kept listening, the characterisations of the Necron villains really grew on me. The derranged overlord, whose mind has degraded over millennia made for a compelling villain, while the space marines and imperial dignitaries acted as solid, if somewhat bland protagonists.

I listened to this book while painting my Necrons and it was entertaining and engaging for that purpose.

"PLASMANCER!"

Good fun to paint to

The problem with 40k novels is how little individual characters matter. We just spent 10 hours getting an insight into a whole host of characters who in the end, might as well have remained nameless. The story worked insofar as we knew who the combatants were and we knew what the motivation was, but ultimately a story of sacrifice is only as meaningful as the event itself. In the grand story of the warhammer 40k universe, this will be remembered as largely irrelevant.

unmemorable

loved this book. Had a great story, and hearing both perspectives was great. Not sure what people are on about with the voice acting, I quite enjoyed it. Only complaint would be the final few chapters felt rushed and ended quite awkwardly, wanted something more satisfying.

Great book, minor complaint

A couple of minor quirks with the voice acting bugged me. But I think that may have been my preference not the artist recording.

Excellent continuation of the story.

naturally space marine centric.. ok for necron readers but don't be fooled into thinking our part in the story is anything other than the stage for the SM to perform on

it's a fine space marine novel. It's pretty straight forward and good to listen to if you need some "BROTHER" while painting minis.

good background stuff for painting minis.

Almost 60 Warhammer Audible books in, while I can say this isn't the best it was enjoyable, and I wouldn't hate listening to it again one day. a bit slow in parts, but I was invested right to the end. the *redacted* transmissions scared the Emperor out of me when I was half asleep though. loved it.

A great Warhammer Book
