A Warhammer 40,000 audio drama collection

The Dark Angels are among the most steadfast and noble of the Space Marines - but their dark secret, the Fallen they relentlessly hunt, always threatens to bring an end to their legacy of honour....

Listen to it because:

The sons of the Lion take centre stage in six audio dramas that reveal the great deeds and dark moments of some of their most prominent heroes.

Description:

No matter the foe, regardless of the odds, the proud warriors of the Dark Angels stubbornly refuse to accept defeat. Descendants of the First Legion, they stand foremost amongst the Chapters of the Space Marines, mankind’s mightiest defenders. None fight with more grim determination than the Dark Angels, and their renowned special companies - the Deathwing and the Ravenwing - are held in awe by allies and enemies alike. Yet behind their devotion to the Imperium lies a dark obsession....

This audio drama anthology contains six tales of the Dark Angels, their missions to defend mankind and their relentless hunt for the mysterious Fallen. Within these tales, you'll be introduced to some of the greatest heroes of the Dark Angels - Chapter Master Azrael, Chief Librarian Ezekiel, Interrogator-Chaplain Asmodai, Deathwing Master Belial and Company Master Balthasar – as they face their greatest trials and darkest moments. You'll also see the Dark Angels through the eyes of mortal warriors who face the Space Marines' wrath after an encounter with the arch-Fallen, Cypher.

Trials of Azrael !!

All in all this is a fantastic collection. the first short story drew me in to the Dark Angels as a faction but by far to me the standout is the Trials of Azrael. It encompasses everything i love about a 40k story without overstaying its welcome or dragging on. 10/10 will be recommending to my friends.

Very interesting for Dark Angels fans.

Despite the first two stories being a little underwhelming, The others more than make up for it in VA talent, and story writing.

Malediction and vindication

The final short story, Malediction, might just be the prefect grim dark loyalist tale. Performances were adequate across all, nothing spectacular but one stood out as exceptionally bad in the Malediction telling.

The constant plot twists.

I like how all the stories had a great twist at the end and never got dull. Most definitely had good action as well.

Great short story collection.

Love the Dark Angels, suffer not the mutant, the heretic, or the xenos! For the Lion!
