Summary

A Chaos Space Marines Novel

The Horus Heresy is over. The World Eaters are leaderless and their greatest hero is in a coma. Poised on the brink of destruction, the Legion needs Khârn—but will his awakening save them or spell their doom?

Listen because...Khârn is one of the most iconic figures in the Warhammer 40,000 setting, the epitome of Khorne's mortal servants. In this story, you can witness his transition from the World Eaters Captain of the Horus Heresy to the blood-mad betrayer feared across the 41st Millennium.

The story: the Horus Heresy is over. The traitor Legions have scattered, fleeing the wrath of a vengeful Imperium. The World Eaters are leaderless, their primarch missing and their greatest hero, Khârn, locked in a coma. The surviving Legionaries have turned upon themselves, their Butcher's Nails driving them to ever-greater acts of berserk savagery. Poised on the brink of destruction, the Legion needs direction. It needs someone to rally around. It needs Khârn—but will his awakening save them, or doom them entirely?

Written by Anthony Reynolds. Read by Richard Reed.

Kharrrrrn!

I have to admit Kharn alongside Huron and Sigismund is a must read/listen character and since I have the LE and ebook version I had to complete with the audiobook, I enjoyed Richard Reeds narrating of Mephiston and the necrons but he is not suited to the XII legion, he made them sound civilised and almost majestic! Andrew Wincott would have been the ideal for me

Not what I expected ngl

Good story and performance, fun listen overall. However, it wasn't what I was expecting given the main characters reputation. Don't go into it expecting KILL MAIN BURN is all I can say.

I liked it but...needs more blood and skulls.

Kharne is barely in it. it spends too much time on the humans aboard the W.E ship who literally add nothing to events. The story is at it's strongest when the WE are actually fighting. it's still worth a listen but the title of the book made me think we,d get more insight to kharnes past before becoming a war hound and showing how much his ideals and motives have evolved to the betrayer we now know. Richard Reed preforming did a great job I just feel the story's writing/script fell flat for him which is shame. At the end of it all I would say that this one book I would rather listen to than physically read. Still worth a listen for more information on the world eaters I guess.

Kharn minus Kharn.

A book about Kharn, with just a little bit of Kharn. And a Kharn that doesn't match up with any other Kharn portrayed.
It's simply not a good book, and not worth the time or credit invested. There's some awfully written side characters as well that make no sense what so ever for reasons that cant be spoken of.

The narration is fine however. But I'd look for something else and not spend money on this thing.

Not the best, but not the worst

Slightly disappointed with this. The book is titled kharn, and he doesn’t appear until half way through. The battle scenes are narrated well, but again very little of kharn.

Worth a listen as it’s only short but not the best world eaters lore you’ll fine.
