About this listen

A Warhammer 40,000 Audiobook

Of all the many penal legions of the Astra Militarum, the 13th have a special reputation – under the command of the fierce Colonel Schaeffer, they always get the job done, no matter the cost…

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Discover what it's like to live (and die) in a penal legion through the eyes of Lieutenant Kage – one of the most vile, selfish, and strangely heroic characters in Warhammer 40,000 fiction.

THE STORY

Across a hundred blasted war-zones upon a dozen bloody worlds, the convict soldiers of the 13th Penal Legion fight a desperate battle for redemption in the eyes of the immortal Emperor. In this endless war against savage orks, merciless eldar and the insidious threat of Chaos, Lieutenant Kage and the Last Chancers must fight, not to win, but merely to survive!

Written by Gav Thorpe. Narrated by Tom Turner. Runtime 9 hours and 1 minute approx.

Listening to this for the third time now, and it still hits just as hard. The story captures that classic Warhammer 40k grimdark atmosphere, yet offers just enough hope to keep you fully invested. A perfect example of what a true 40k novel should feel like.

Excellent

Last Chancers is a great series, fun action, shifty characters, I hope they do the rest of them.
