Great audio drama intro to the Unforgiven

This is an audio drama, voice actors for the various characters. Very well done. Don't care for the title as it's more about his predecessor than him and doesn't even end with his ascending, just the story behind why he is filled with rage. still an excellent story and well told. The actors did a great job. it also introduces the Dark Angels in a way that is understandable but not over explanatory for new people

So So short. Should be labeled a Short Story

Good narration and story, but terribly short. If you enjoy the lore and can afford it id recommend

Satisfying, if predictable listen.

Great voice acting and sound design. Classic WH40k story with all the tropes and purple writing. Fun if predictable.

Dark Angels at there best!

A must read for any true fan of the First Legion. Excellent story, great sound effects, well read by a stellar cast and leads up to a fantastic showdown. C Z Dunn at his best!
