A Warhammer 40,000 Audiobook

Gryphonne IV is dead – one of the mightiest forge worlds in the arsenal of the Adeptus Mechanicus, succumbed to the relentless hunger of Hive Fleet Leviathan. Devoured. Lost.

The few magi that survive drift in idleness, robbed of purpose and direction. But there is one who rejects that fate.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

It’s the gripping tale of an Explorator desperately seeking ancient technologies from humanity’s past as she races against time to restore one of the mightiest forge worlds in the Imperium.

THE STORY

Explorator Talin Sherax seeks ancient and miraculous technologies from humanity’s distant past. When she learns of a fabled relic that could restore all that has been lost, Sherax embarks on a journey, the outcome of which could change everything. Nothing will stand in her way… even if the quest brings her to the brink of heresy.

Written by Jonathan D Beer. Narrated by Colleen Prendergast. Runtime 10 hours and 47 minutes, approx.

Not worth credit

Boring story ,more cash grab than valuable adition to Lore. And narrator is hard to litsen.

Good pacing, fun, tragic, redemption… just good

There were some reviews that originally made me hesitant about this book, and sometimes you just need to make your own assessment. This book was good. I enjoyed the whole thing. Even had a couple life lessons included in there at the end. Give it a shot.

the narrator saved this

not for me just couldn't get in to the book .it seemed like it was supposed to be 3 books they trimmed down to one

Politics amongst the machine

One or two plot threads left dangling but a fun look at AdMech politicking and motivation.

Skip it

If you really love mechanicus like I do, it’s really really fun to listen to. But that being said it sucks lol the writer is actually really good, in all ways, but calling the story unsatisfying is a massive understatement. Like nothing about the way this story ends is enjoyable. If you like the real mundane boring pain of the grim dark of 40k you’ll like the way this ends, besides that, pass on it.

Fun Mechanicus Story!

If you like the mechanicus this is a great read for you, If you don’t this might be a tuff read to get through for you.

Great narration countered by mediocre plot

The narrator did a fantastic job, but the writing itself leaves something to be desired. Staggering amounts of sacrifice for nothing more than minuscule character growth, if it can be called that, make for a weak conclusion.

meh

an poor protagonist follows a mostly forgettable cast in the story where a couple interesting things happen, but ultimately nothing changes. I don't hate this book I just don't like it.

Fantastic

The Mechanicus at their best - this book was a surprise but quickly became one of my new favorites after listening through it. The novel gives a great analysis of how flawed the Cult can be and gives great side characters to provide for a compelling narrative. It left me wanting more but this story is a nicely self-contained quest for one Magos (Ductrix?) to find her own way to redemption. Definitely worth the time and the price of admission!

changed review - solid mechanics block

not a bad audiobook, a bit dry in the beginning but it picks up midway through. I submitted a review prior but relistened to it and wanted to change my opinion.
