Resumen del Editor

A Warhammer 40,000 novel.

In a brief respite between wars, Gaunt's Ghosts find themselves facing a hidden killer on a newly liberated world.

Listen to it because....

Witness a never-before-seen tale from the confidential Ghost dossier, following one of the earliest deployments for the Tanith First and Only.

The story:

In the ruined border town of Vincula, the newly formed Tanith First and Only and their commander, Colonel-Commissar Ibram Gaunt, are assigned to enforce a permanent peace. However, this thankless police action will prove as dangerous as any frontline—something is stalking the Ghosts through the streets, and soon the Tanith First will learn dark secrets about themselves that will echo through their history.

Written by Dan Abnett. Running time 6 hours 8 minutes. Narrated by Toby Longworth.

seeing old friends again

fantastic storyline, really fun to hear from Bragg and Corbec again, a must have for any ghost. as always, Toby Longworth did a fantastic job.

awesome story filling in some blanks

as always, the narrators for this series are unimpeachable. book after book the voices are the same, very well done.
-
in the Gaunts Ghost series, you go from one fethed up mess to another; and that's just those running the wars! very entertaining, very easy to get emotionally invested in the stories and the characters.
-
but what happens in between? this dossier is a nice addition, filling in the blanks of what happens after the world is liberated. so it helps if you've read a few of the first books in the series before this.

well worth a credit and I can't wait for more!

More of this pls!

Definitely a Gaunt’s Ghosts book. Goes back to the early days of the Regiment where they end up dealing with some crazy feth. I won’t go too deep into it, but it feels like there are one or two points where it seems inconsistent with the older books, but otherwise it’s action-packed. Also, there’s a subplot to the story that deals with explaining the nature of the Ghosts’ tattoos and how Tanith’s culture is interconnected with other worlds in the Sabbat Worlds that was interesting as well. If they’re setting up for a second Ghost Dossier book to follow up on this, I’m in.

excellent

story narration all excellent definitely something from the very beginning of the ghosts which is nice

Good story

Loved it! Good performance, story and characters that was easy to keep track of.

Ghosts are back for this enjoyable story

It was only 6 hrs long, but I think that helped my enjoyment of it. The setting is kinda neat. The Ghosts have to police an area with insurgents and it’s obvious Dan Abnett took cues from the real life conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. The story gave some background on a few endearing characters from the novel series. One revelation was interesting and I cant wait to learn more.
I listened to the first 4 Gaunt’s Ghosts and gave up on the series. The books were well written, but it became a slog after a while. This shorter story was more enjoyable.

Odd but poignant retroactive character development

There's a joke in this book that took nearly 8 hours of context and set up before its sprung up on the reader in a random chapter in a random moment and it sent me laughing for literally 5 minutes. That scene alone is worth a credit IMO.

Other than that, this is an extremely good entry in the Gaunt's Ghosts series. Pick it up after you've read the main series first. It takes place prior to the 3rd book.

A nice return to the early days of the Ghosts.

I enjoyed the novel and seeing new stories of Ghosts long gone. The story takes place early in the story of the Ghosts not long after the loss of Tanith but it adds details to some characters that may be important in future tales.

pretty cool

the book was good but I feel like it ended too quickly without closure.

Best of the Ghosts

Outstanding story. Presented as the title says, in a report style. Great listen all around, and well worth adding to the Ghosts collection.
