Cult of the Spiral Dawn

Warhammer 40,000

By: Peter Fehervari

Narrated by: Helen Keeley

A Genestealer Cults Audiobook

Members of a seemingly loyal cult devoted to the Emperor make a pilgrimage to the world on which their order began. What they find there puts all they believe into question.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

It's a typically thoughtful and bizarre tale from Peter Fehervari that exposes just how insidious and devastating Genestealer Cults can be.

THE STORY

The galaxy is vast, and worship of the God-Emperor by His faithful takes many forms. The Spiral Dawn is one of the countless sanctioned sects of the Imperial Cult. As a gathering of Spiralytes make their holy pilgrimage to Redemption, the sect's world of origin and a shrine world of the Imperium, they find not a haven of enlightenment and introspection, but a soot-choked hellhole where their order's founders and an unorthodox regiment of Astra Militarum maintain an uneasy coexistence. As tensions between the serene congregation and the superstitious Guardsmen mount, the new arrivals begin to unravel the dark secrets concealed at the heart of their faith.

Superb Book, Okay Narration

The book is phenomenal. I've read it multiple times. Great story, great plot. The narrator isn't bad, per se, but she just didn't feel right for this book.

I Liked It Better Than Ascension Day...

...which was more about the Adeptus Mechanicus' *agent* than the actual Ascension Day.

I sometimes find female narrators doing mens voices [& vice-versa, male narrators doing women's voices] distracting. No probs at all here, she did an awesomeness job.

Very interesting & well narrated audiobook overall.

A very good book!

Had me excited the whole time! A must read for all 40K fans and fans of si-fi thrillers in general

For the Spiral Worm!

This book was SO much better than I expected! The gene stealer cult was super interesting and the story had lots of twists and turns. And the voice actor was incredible!! Her voice has so much range from soft and seductive to bristling fury and rage!! I’ve listened to alot of Warhammer books but this was definitely one of my favorites. Hope

Multi layered

lot of perspective changes, some good twists and turns in the story. My engagement wavered in some spots but overall a good tale.
