Publisher's summary

As his Homo Novus project comes to fruition, Fabius Bile faces a new threat - the dreaded haemonculi of the Thirteen Scars. Can he marshal his forces to protect his creations, or are the New Men doomed to death?

Listen to it because: discover what happens when you cross the Haemonculus covens...and what lengths Fabius Bile will go to in order to survive their deadly attentions.

The story: in the centuries since his return from Commorragh, Fabius Bile has distanced himself from the affairs of friend and foe, content only to oversee the cruel evolution of his New Men. But when his creations are threatened by the monstrous haemonculi of the Thirteen Scars, the Manflayer is forced to seek out new allies and old enemies alike in an effort to preserve all that he has built. Homo Novus must survive...even if Fabius Bile must die to ensure it.

Written by Josh Reynolds. Read by John Banks.

Highly recommend this book.

Fantastic. It's a shame that this is the last Black Library novel will ever write.

Great read

Little hard to follow in the middle, but did a nice job wrapping everything up and tying it all together by the end

Space Pimp for the win!

Fabius is by far my favorite nefarious character in all of 40k and this book just made me love him all the more.

An ending of sorts

A really somber ending of an amazing trilogy with a mass effect ending type of finale. It’s very fast paced but worth the read but defiantly a lot of information to digest constantly.

Really good series.

Better ending then I'd thought it would be for the series. Used to dislike Fabius Bile, and the Emperor's Children. This series has utterly changed my perspective. Fabius the ultimate mad scientist, and has all the returning characters from the prior books, good fun. Also LOTS of Drukari, even Drukari POV scenes.

I need more fabius bile after this trilogy! hopefully black library will deliver more in the future. I'll buy it without a second thought. John Banks does a wonderful job narrating as always.

If you like chaos/Fabius stories, buy it.

It's sublime.

40k novels are often hit-or-miss, but this one is a homerun. I'd suggest getting the first two books in the trilogy first though. part of what made this one so fun was the way it advanced characters and stroylines that began earlier in the series. It was a lovely read though, and one I had long looked forward to. Bravo.

A nice segue for Chaos

An interesting look into how Chaos gets it's way even when they don't want to.
