Publisher's summary

It is the 32nd millennium, and the Imperium is at peace. The Traitor Legions of Chaos are but a distant memory, and the many alien races that have long plagued mankind are held in check by the Space Marines.

When a mission to exterminate one such xenos breed on the world of Ardamantua draws in more of their forces, the Imperial Fists abandon the walls of Terra for the first time in more than a thousand years. And when another greater foe strikes, even the heroic sons of Rogal Dorn may be powerless against it. The Beast arises...and it is mighty.

Gripping

Incredible start to a great story arc in the Warhammer 40K universe. I had taken a long break from WH40K and this got me right back into it eagerly wanting more. The story is well led by the narrators performance. I couldn’t stop listening and quickly got all twelve of the books in this series! #Warhammer 40K #sci-fi #greatnarrator #Tagsgiving #Sweepstakes

Depressing

This is obviously a must-read for the contents of the story lorewise. The political sections were good. The space marines were admirable. The Assassinorum was cool. It's just.... the story did not make me excited at all about the next books in the series.

Amazing

This is just the start and it pulls no punches. The Imperial Fist 👊 do credit to there name and shine as both human an the weapons they are.

more ichor than you can shake a stick at. decent story but the narrator kills it. still worth a listen but could have been much more.
