The Warmaster

Gaunt's Ghosts, Book 14

By: Dan Abnett

Narrated by: James Cameron Stewart

After the success of their desperate mission to Salvation's Reach, Colonel Commissar Gaunt and the Tanith First race to the strategically vital forge world of Urdesh, besieged by the brutal armies of Anarch Sek. However, there may be more at stake than just a planet. The Imperial forces have made an attempt to divide and conquer their enemy, but with Warmaster Macaroth himself commanding the Urdesh campaign, it is possible that the Archenemy assault has a different purpose to decapitate the Imperial command structure with a single blow. Has the Warmaster allowed himself to become an unwitting target? And can Gaunt's Ghosts possibly defend him against the assembled killers and war machines of Chaos?

Another great Gaunt's Ghosts novel.

It's nothing like I predicted. The rank Gaunt was promoted wasn't removed for dramatic effect. The end set up for the next novel.

excellent story, however...

the character yoncie was painful to listen to each time, for a number of reasons. the voice actor for yoncie is incredibly too high pitched for the voice, then the "papa, mama" stuff is incredibly creepy, no other kids ever talked like that in any other book. I felt nyself using the "skip 30 seconds" feature more and more to just overall avoid the yoncie sections. I was actively wishing the sons of sect would take her and that would be the end of her character.

Took the win right out of my sails

Damn! What a fantastic read or listen. Some truly pivotal moments in the Gaunt's Ghosts story line and in the history of the Tanith First and Only! If you have been reading this series or even just a fan of science fiction then give this one a shot

My favorite book in the series.

Such a great moment of triumph after years of sacrifice for the ghosts. I just wish Toby was the narrator. Maybe they will rerecord now that the rest of the series is done. I'd happily purchase!
