Necromunda

By: Justin D Hill

Narrated by: Emma Noakes

A Necromunda novel.

When full-scale gang war erupts between Houses Goliath and Escher, Brielle of the Wild Hydras finds herself on the run and desperate for revenge....

Listen to it because....

Delve into the darkest reaches of the underhive in a tale of vengeance, ambition and gruesome deeds from Necromunda's underhive.

The story....

In the polluted, sprawling hive cities of Necromunda, life is short. From the decadent heights of the Spire to the murderous deeps of the underhive, those on the climb must be bold and brutal, or face a violent end.

When the barbarous Fettnir, Goliath overlord of the Chemfall Butchers, turns his attention to Escher territory, the result is nothing short of a massacre.

Brielle of the Wild Hydras escapes the slaughter and is cast into the deepest levels of the underhive.

Determined to avenge her family, Brielle vows that she will end those responsible, but to reach Fettnir and the bounty hunter who murdered her mother, she must first survive...and the darkness is full of horrors.

Written by Justin D Hill. Running time 9 hours and 5 minutes. Narrated by Emma Noakes.

loads of Necromunda fun! definitely worth a listen

I thought it was a great audio performance and the book was very enjoyable.

the grittiest of grim dark

This book was pure Necromunda, if you want dubious characters, gore, monsters and black humor then look no further. I honestly wish all Warhammer 40k novels had this much realism in characters

All the extremes of the underhive

Content warning
The underhive is a truely foil place, and I was left gaging several times from the vivid descriptions of survival and "work" in the underhive

Extraordinary Narrator. Truly Bleak Setting. Great

Emma Noakes really has no business giving the performance she gave to this title. It was emotional, complex, committed. No, I don't know her personally. Also, I will never hear the word "scrape" the same way again. It just leans into the setting unapologetically to give us the hero's journey anew.

Amazing World Building

What makes this novel good is the attention to details of the underhive. How people live? What do they eat? The story is secondary in my opinion. it's decent,but not amazing.
