Sons of the Hydra

Warhammer 40,000

By: Rob Sanders

Narrated by: Tom Alexander

An Alpha Legion Audiobook

In the hostile universe of the 41st Millennium, where allegiances are ever fickle, few of the Emperor’s sons are more difficult to understand or predict than the Alpha Legion.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

It's a story about the sneakiest and most oblique of traitors, written by Rob Sanders, master of the twisty-turny tale. It's sure to make your head spin…

THE STORY

Branded traitor since the Heresy, the motives and actions of the Alpha Legion have always been shrouded in mystery. Alpha Legionnaire Occam the Untrue leads his warband out of its hunting grounds in the Maelstrom on an epic quest for salvation, not just for himself, but for his whole Legion. With the forces of the Inquisition snapping at their heels, Occam and his followers must use all their guile and considerable martial prowess as they make their way to the cold heart of the galaxy, to a confrontation that no one, least of all Occam himself, could have foreseen.

Classic

Not like most alpha legion books, but somehow kinda the perfect alpha legion book. Really cool story, awesome characters, loved everything about this book. The va should be the default va for any book that has necrons in it, the best portrayal of a necrons voice I have ever heard, if I could give him six stars for his performance on that alone I would.

Good Heretical (sort-of) fun

The writing felt a little bit clumsy in a few places and there are some details here and there that are a little on the corny side, but overall I really enjoyed it. Very fun book and will be listening again

Absolutely one of the best.

I listened to it all in one sitting, it was so great. The characters are fun and not copy and pasted with fun twists and turns from start to end. This is finally an Alpha Legion book I can proudly say is outstanding.

the narrator is spot on

this is a must read alpha legion book. everything about it is masterfully done. really can't go wrong here

the convoluted plan

it would have been better if the legionnaires were fleshed out more, it felt like the story only gave background to the assassin and occam
