An Alpha Legion Audiobook

On a world that is home to a unique artefact, bands of Chaos Space Marines battle for the right to claim it. But the arrival of the infamous Khârn the Betrayer changes the balance of power…

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

The forces of Chaos fight amongst themselves, with the Blood God's chosen warrior slap bang in the middle. It’s probably not going to end well for anyone whose name isn't Khârn…

THE STORY

Upon the oceanic hive world of Tsadrekha, the darkness of the Noctis Aeterna is held at bay by the golden light of a unique beacon. Yet, as sharks are drawn to blood, so the ravening warbands of the Heretic Astartes circle the planet, warring to claim this rich prize for their Dark Gods. Now, one of those warlords has deployed a secret weapon to end the deadlock.

Kassar and his elite band of Alpha Legionaries, the Unsung, must infiltrate the planet, using all their cunning and warrior skills to overcome the planet's defenders and corrupt the beacon. They need to work fast, for none other than Khârn the Betrayer himself has come to lead the final assault. As a rising tide of apocalyptic warfare consumes Tsadrekha, Kassar and his brothers must race for the prize or be consumed by the fury of the storm.

Another excellent black libary book

This book delivers a captivating story, mostly from the traitor perspective. Recommended for all warhammer 40K fans.

Doesn’t let you go

From the opening chapters to the final moments this book managed to keep me engaged and interesting the entire time. I burned through this one in just a few days. Highly recommend

Wonderful portrayal of the Alpha Legion

Brilliantly written, excellent understanding of each faction portrayed and overall a great read all around.
I enjoyed every moment of this book and would recommend it to anyone who is interested in the Alpha Legion or wants a good action packed heist story

New faces and heavy hitters

Not going to lie when I saw that Kharn and Celestine were in a book about some new Alpha Legionnaires I was worried that they were there just to give the book something draw eyes to, but to my suprise and enjoyment they did a great job with them and the new boys. Doesn't matter if your fans of Chaos or The Imperium you'll get a have a good time with this one

The personality of the Alpha legion is well represented. The story is solid and interesting.

This book had a very good story that came to a good conclusion while leaving enough open for the Reader’s imagination. The Alpha legion is well represented appearing as less corrupted than other traitors but not totally unaffected with slight mutations that give personality to the apparently uniform Alpha legionaries. Definitely give this a read if you like Alpha legion or just good 40k books.

great book!

love the entire book and the pov of alpha legioni! their reaction to primaris was great!

Great story.

The performer makes baffling accent and accentuations pretty regularly. It's distracting and ruins the story's flow here and there, but I enjoyed the story and would listen to it again. I might avoid the performer in future purchases.

Great narrator (guy from BG3!)

Plot armor for the enemies was a little much. I think Karn was OP even for Karn

40K heist story

Fun look at an Alpha Legion war band as they complete their mission and encounter primaris marines for the first time

MORE!!!!!!

Andy Clark knocked this out of the park! Andrew Wincott as always top notch performance.
The book really has it all. I hope we can get follow up books with these characters and their journey to whatever fate falls upon them.
