Summary

A Warhammer Horror novel.

Take a nightmare journey into a plague-wracked city where monsters stalk the streets and nothing can be trusted...including the memories of the protagonist.

Morgravia Sanctus is being hunted; why or by whom she doesn't know. Something terrible has happened to her, a profound trauma that has left behind ‘red dreams’ and a physical agony that can strike at any moment. Her life in danger and her memory fragmented, she arrives in the low-hive of Blackgheist to escape her pursuers and search for ‘the Broker’ – a trafficker in memories and psychic mind manipulation. Soon after, a plague sweeps the city, turning its citizens into blood-hungry monsters. Order collapses, death and slaughter are rampant. Caught up in the carnage, Morgravia must flee once more. But as the ravening spreads, is there any hope of stopping this contagion?

A good listen

I pre-ordered the book and was super excited to jump in on launch day. I found myself at chapter 5 in no time but ended up dropping it for reasons I can not remember.

I then tried to come back to it twice failing to do so, this week I started from the start again and I am happy I did, they are some strange stuff such as the duration of the entire event, which makes it seem like an established cult sprung up overnight, but, excepting this is a Warhammer book and is not trying to be the best book ever written it was really enjoyable, some characters land some don't but what I am loving about the horror series is the descriptions of detail when it comes to the macabre stuff because for me Warhammer is meant to be Grim Dark.

Would recommend if you are looking for an interesting darker inquisitor story

The Walking Dead set in a Hive City. What more could you want from Warhammer horror?

Inquisition and dark mechanicum

A great story that moves along very nicely with horror elements and also using the lore of the 30k/40k universe well, the narrator was good but her constant staccato style was jarring and to be honest I almost have up once or twice, I stayed the course and it was worth it

Well written, excellently narrated

A nice blend of zombie tropes and 40k, quite violent and visceral at times. I really enjoyed the author's style and use of language, all the way up to the final 15 or so minutes when the ending is rushed and incongruous to the story that's been built up. I thought the narrator did a fantastic job throughout, adding passion, aggression or foreboding where necessary without overdoing it.

Overall very good, just let down by a bit if a damp ending.

Hive Survival Horror

'Sepulturum', by Nick Kyme, is Warhammer Horror's answer to classical zombie movies. But with a twist. It presents the reader with all the wonderful attributes associated with the genre, such as: gore, panic, gothic visualism, however brings it to a familiar 40k setting for readers, a hive. With a compelling small catalogue of main characters to follow, you are left hoping each one of them survives the outbreak of pallid cannibals within Blackgheist. Antonia Beamish voiced this audiobook marvelously. And after listening to her read all of Kim Newman's 'Vampire Genevieve' chronicle, her narration was a welcome return. I'd highly recommend this audiobook for fans of warhammer and horror alike.

Occasionally brilliant

An enjoyable little story that burns brightly initially before eventually reverting to type and fading away. This is a horror story and it leaves you with that typical hollowed out feeling at the end but occasionally it transcends into good thriller territory and it's worth a listen for those parts alone.

Too many threads

Well performed did as well as they could with the source material. The story it self is almost good but needed tighter editing, the whole rehash of escape from new York in the middle is unnecessary and would have been better spent developing kristos arc, as it stands the only link between the two threads at the end of the book is proximity to mcguffin. It tries hard with it's twists but its really like they started with who they wanted to appear and worked backwards logic, lore and reason be damned, it's a shame a little more focus and few less uneccessary plots which only exist for the author to pastiche 80s action film set peives.

A story so boring even the narrator struggle

This story was so boring and uneventful it seemed that even the narrator was uninterested in reading it.
Not that she was a good one, to begin with.
