Summary

A Sabbat Worlds novel.

The war on Enothis is almost lost. Chaos forces harry the defenders on land and in the skies. Can the ace pilots of the Phantine XX turn the tide and bring the Imperium victory?  

Listen to it because:

It takes the famous Sabbat Worlds Crusade to the skies, with fast-paced aeronautical action, memorable characters and compelling emotional arcs from Dan 'Master of War' Abnett.  

The story:

High-speed air combat in the war-torn Sabbat Worlds! 

When the elite fighter pilots of the Phantine XX arrive on the beleaguered world of Enothis, they know it is a desperate hour. The forces of Chaos are closing in, and their final push could well wipe out all human life on the planet. Thousands of refugees flee the dark armies, and the infamous Chaos fighter pilot Khrel Kas Obarkon is always hunting the skies for more prey.... 

And so it falls to the brave men and women of the Phantine fighter corps. Can they hold off the Chaos advance until reinforcements arrive? In the high-speed, white-knuckle terror of aerial combat, can they defeat an enemy possessed by daemons?  

Written by Dan Abnett. Running time 10 hours and 17 minutes. Narrated by Toby Longworth.

Air War in the 41st Millennium.

A great, character-driven story that depicts the brutality of air warfare in the 40K universe. Strong characters, vivid depiction of both battle and behind the scenes interaction and admirable voice acting combine to make this a very enjoyable listen.

Air war in the (19) 40K

Brilliant adaptation of (mild spoiler) the RAF in May to September 1940 to the 40K universe. Fab portrayal and voicing by Toby Longworth, maybe the best of his I've heard with a very large number of characters to portray. For the story think of the RAF forward force sent to France, facing off against a numerically superior force, operating from temporary bases, the air rearguard over the retreating land army as it falls back to the coast in May and June 1940 then skip ahead to the desperate days leading up to a climax of Sept 15th. Just awesome.

Toby Longworth stellar as usual

Voice acting fabulous
Overall an incredibly exiting insight to 40k aerial combat
Story is great, sometimes struggled with working out which viewpoint was which between the main arcs - a usual Abnett issue for audiobooks but it was still really good and I highly recommend

A great wh40k book from a different perspective

A good book with excellent narration.
Refreshing to see some 40k books taking a different approach.
It does bring the Battle of Britain into the future with great action sequences that are heart pumping.
Would be good to see a sequel set in a different enviroment with some of the same characters.
Highly Recommended.

Solid long story

While the first quarter of the book was somewhat confusing and not necessarily action packed, the later half was absolutely fantastic with action, close calls and even characters.
