Interceptor City

Warhammer 40,000 Series

De: Dan Abnett

Narrado por: Toby Longworth

A Warhammer 40,000 Audiobook

With the Imperial forces locked in a gruelling war of attrition over the dead hive city of Vesperus, a former ace fighter pilot returns to the cockpit as the Aeronautica risks it all to secure Interceptor City for the Imperium.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Twenty years after the release of the highly acclaimed Double Eagle, Dan Abnett returns to the Aeronautica Imperialis for the long-awaited follow-up. Follow along as an ace dogfighter is forced out of her comfortable “retirement” and back into deadly aerial combat.

THE STORY

Former ace fighter pilot Bree Jagdea’s days of high-octane, white-knuckle dogfights are long behind her. Content with executing supply runs for the war effort, Jagdea considers herself retired. But when enemy forces start a relentless bombing campaign through the hive city of Vesperus, Jagdea is forced back into the Aeronautica – stationed with the infamous Circus 66 squadron, executing near-suicidal dead-drops and blistering interception runs through Vesperus’ lethal rat runs.

Plunged back into a world where the smallest of errors means instant death, can Jagdea outfly the enemy aces, secure Interceptor City for the Imperium, and return to solid ground with her sanity intact?

Highly entertaining

Good story, good characters and excellent narrator. Recommended if you're looking for high paced action, human characters, excellent setting and a story that made me feel for the characters.

Dan Abnett Triumphs Again

It's hard to place exactly what makes this book so good because it really incorporates so many elements together in a neat package. The pacing keeps you listening, the fidelity to the technical details of the "vector aircraft" is believable and well thought out, of course the action sequences are extremely intense as you might expect from his previous title 'Double Eagle', overall I think the characters might be the strongest point in this. Abnett writes a whole cast of very unique and endearing characters to flesh out the "Circus 66" airbase. Several of the characters have a lot of depth and are still in my thoughts after completing the book. Overall, if you like high octane aerial battles with complex characters in an elaborately designed and fleshed out SciFi world, you'll love Interceptor City.

The Top Gun of Warhammer 40k

This is a super fun read. I loved this unique view of the aeronotica.

Another home run

Massively enjoyable. Another masterpiece by the best duo in audiobooks. I absolutely love all of their work.

just excellent!

A fantastic read from start to finish even if your not a warhammer fan. I cannot recommend highly enough!

enjoy it

I really enjoyed this book, I will say the first 2 hours or so feel slow but once you get to 66, it start to pick up, I ready woke reviews that said after the first 2 hours it's non stop action or something along those lines, to me that not true but there is part that the action is so good you don't want it to stop, but seriously after about 2 hours the story picks up and never stops even when they aren't in combat and are at 66 it still good, learning the culture of 66 and the story of some of the pilots is fun and interesting

Amazing action

I love these characters and the plot! Easily this is my new favorite 40k book, maybe even favorite book in general.

Nice

Well written and a good listen. Definitely a fan of the aviator perspective in 40k.

Warhammer and Jets!

If you listened to this author's other Aeronautica Stories then you will be getting more of the same with a good twist. This book really plays into environmental hazards of a warring world that has not been explored in other 40k novels I read. Forget the Arch-Enemy, your doom will most likely come from a decaying traffic light on Saints Avenue

Amazing story, one of the best warhammer 40k books I've ever read!

Dan Abnett has overdone himself this time! This is such a great sequel to double eagle but it stands on its own. The air battles are amazing and well described. I felt like I was in the cockpit with Jagdea on the edge of my seat, the shread screaming in my ear, lol. The characters are well described and really interesting. I felt like I knew all of outpost 66 by the end and I truly was surprised at the end. I loved that about the book wasn't, it's predictable, which made it that much better. I highly recommend this for anybody who loves science fiction. Especially if you're looking for a phenomenal air combat book. I hope we get more of these!
