About this listen

A Space Marine Conquests novel

The Word Bearers have come to despoil the Ecclesiarchy world of Almace - and it will take the Space Marines and the world's secretive leaders working together to prevent an apocalypse....

Listen to It Because:

Apocalypse is all about the biggest battles, and Josh Reynolds delivers that in this tale of three Space Marine Chapters waging war, with the fate of an entire world hanging in the balance.

The Story:

Following the cataclysmic Great Rift, forces from the Imperial Fists, White Scars and Raven Guard mobilise to defend the cardinal world of Almace from an invasion by the twisted traitors of the Word Bearers....

Lieutenant Heyd Calder is a Primaris Marine whose mastery of warfare is matched only by his diplomatic prowess. Under the orders of Roboute Guilliman, he is deployed to Almace, a minor seat of the Ecclesiarchy, to protect the world at whatever cost. Yet even as diabolical forces leer from the system's edge, Calder discovers that the capital's Cardinal-Governor, a sharp, inscrutable figure of spiritual and material authority, is hiding something. When it becomes clear that conquest is not the enemy’s sole aim, Calder resolves to uncover the secret of Almace. As the system is set ablaze, clashes of faith, strategy and politics ensue in the capital, and it becomes clear that the forces of the Ecclesiarchy and the Adeptus Astartes must fight together if they are to have any hope of victory.

The story was fantastic and the performance was spectacular. An easy book to keep track of during busy commutes

Great listen and easy to follow on a commute

Excellent from start to finish, with a brilliant performance by the narrator who really brought the different characters to life. Quite a long book, but it never dragged and was well paced, allowing the story to be told from both sides and giving each perspective room to breath. Had an interesting ending, not just your usual good vs evil tropes.

A good story, very well told

The book is a great story from both sides with no bias.
The voice acting is amazing with effective use of his skills and no sound effects it is a pleasure to listen to.
Overall a great book and performance.

Extremely Good

Expected this to be generic given the fairly standard topic but excellent work by the author to breathe life into often dull types of characters.

So much better than expected

There isn't any other word to describe this story it was just Epic on every level it had such grand scale and for me hit everything I was looking for in the grim dark future.
The smaller interment moments where fantastic and the characters were built extremely well. Especially the look we got into the word bearers.
I also loved the 3 space marines and the journeys they each took was very unique and fitting for each chapter.
And finally the mvp of this audio book, Richard Reed.
His vocal performances where some of the best I've ever heard. He gave every single character their own unique distinct voices, so you never got confused. He also made each character his own and they all felt real. He gave the whole story the gravity it needed.
I will be looking for more books that He has lent his skills to.
I also Thought the author was amazing and I look forward to experiencing more of his work in the future.
All in all EPIC and a definite recommendation to any 40k fan.

EPIC
