Dark Imperium: Warhammer 40,000, Book 1

By: Guy Haley

Narrated by: John Banks

Audiobook 1 of the Dark Imperium trilogy.

The first phase of the Indomitus Crusade is over, and the conquering primarch, Roboute Guilliman, sets his sights on home. The hordes of his traitorous brother, Mortarion, march on Ultramar, and only Guilliman can hope to thwart their schemes with his Primaris Space Marine armies.

Listen to It Because

Experience the beginning of the Plague Wars, as the Imperium's lord regent fights to reclaim his home from the Death Guard and their daemonic allies.

The Story

Fell times have come to the galaxy. Cadia has fallen, destroyed by the onslaught of Chaos. A Great Rift in the warp has opened, and from its depths spew daemons and the horrors of Old Night.

But all hope is not lost… A hero, long absent, has returned, and with him comes the wrath of the Ultramarines reborn. Roboute Guilliman has arisen to lead the Imperium out of darkness on a crusade the likes of which has not been seen since the fabled days of the Emperor.

But never before have the forces of Ruin amassed in such numbers, and nowhere is safe from despoliation. From the dreaded Scourge Stars come the hordes of the Plaguefather, Lord Nurgle, and their pustulent eye is fixed on Macragge. As the Indomitus Crusade rages on, Guilliman races to Ultramar and a confrontation with the Death Guard.

Written by Guy Haley. Narrated by John Banks.

Good start

Primarch battle !! Don’t need to say more great book good start to the trilogy good listen

Had to get it

Fulgrim was a wus and needed A dark god to heal his boo boo before confronting Giliman and doing what he did. This was a good but also sad start to the story of a returning Primarch.

Absolutely amazing

Only downside I would say is that the chapters are too long for what they are but I understand why they were so long. Other then that it was amazing.

Depressed Guilliman is so interesting

To see Guilliman’s view of things be tossed and turned in contrast to what he knows will always be intriguing. Can’t wait to listen to the rest of this trilogy.

Takes so long for anything to actually happen.

Story is cool but there’s so much building lol.
The final literal last 10 minutes you see gully do something after so long.

My first warhammer book

This is my first warhammer book. I’ve watched/listened to a lot of luetin on YouTube. But this was enjoyable I need to get the other 2

Ultrabots! Roll out!

Loved this book and the Death Guard! Though I though some of the ultra marines sounded like robots lol.

Absolutely loved it!

I absolutely loved this story, and going deeper inside Big Blues headspace and how he realizes that Big E never cared about them is both awesome and heartbreaking.

Excellence

Excellent story well done! I can’t wait to read the next book in this series!

Thrilled and amazed

A great book and I’m hoping for a great series to follow. I loved the large scale wars and battles fought. The last of the emperors sons hold the line against the dark.
