Within its metal confines there lies a hidden message, one that could bring the Raven Guard into such ill repute it would risk its very survival. Only the Shadowmasters, the finest of the Chapter’s elite, have the skill to infiltrate the high-speeding mag-lev and extract the message before their presence is known.

a most amusing story
I obtained this story on a whim, as I felt I needed a new story. but mine ears were delighted to hear this story, short as it was, of action. the story played humorous as I listened for the short hour it played, and put a smile on my face I was loathe to put down. sadly, though, the story ended, leaving me wanting to hear more of the Red Swan and his tragedy.

Worthwhile Listen for any Warhammer Fan
This is the first Black Library entry to feature the enigmatic Eldar Harlequins as main characters, and it's hard to imagine a better introduction. It's a fascinating and fast paced look into an intriguing faction. I found myself drawn in, especially by the unique banter between the main characters, and wanting to learn more. Overall a well-acted, high quality production full of action, dynamic characters, with interesting and amusing dialogue. I hope BL continues this series, because I'll be sure to pick them up as soon as possible.

Too short
A short story well told, lacked a little depth maybe but you can only do so much with just over an hour. Passed the time nicely on the way home from work would recommend.
