About this listen

Having witnessed the terrible massacre of Imperial forces on Isstvan III, Death Guard Captain Garro seizes a ship and sets a course for Terra to warn the Emperor of Horus' treachery.

But when the fleeing Eisenstein is damaged by enemy fire, it becomes stranded in the warp - the realm of the Dark Powers. Can Garro and his men survive the depredations of Chaos and get his warning to the Emperor before Horus' plans reach fruition?

Loved it to be honest. Wasn’t sure about the narrator to begin with but after a little time began to really enjoy and appreciate his performance. The whole story is really well described and had my imagination on overdrive. Plenty of action, and story development.

And the heresy continues

This was a really enjoyable story that was well read.

The main character Nathaniel was enjoyable to follow. His deeper struggles within himself were interesting as a man struggling to find a foundation to build his life upon as everything he held certain was torn away.

The action is good however more importantly I found the story engaging between set pieces.

The only issue I can see with this story is it relies on the knowledge of the listener for a lot of the descriptions for the world building/visualisation.

If you are completely new to warhammer I wouldn’t say this should put you off from listening however just know it can be light on descriptions.

Overall I would say it is a must have for anyone who is a Warhammer fan.

An excellent entry into the Horus Heresy
