A Warhammer 40,000 Audiobook

Armageddon is dying, and Tartarus will fall. The orks are coming, and to stand any chance against the green tide, three soldiers must fight to their last.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

It's another perspective on the battle for Armageddon, from three different points of view – Astra Militarum, Adepta Sororitas, and the Adeptus Astartes. This is not a heroic story, but rather one of desperation and difficult choices.

THE STORY

In the dying days of the Second War, Major Ambrosius Roth faces a task that seems destined to fail – to hold the walls of the doomed hive against a massive xenos assault. Lacking resources and reinforcements, Roth finds himself outnumbered, outgunned, and rapidly running out of time.

As Armageddon burns and Tartarus begins to break, Sister Superior Sabreen of the Order of Our Martyred Lady is the last protector of a saint's precious relics. But an evil has seeped into the foundations of Tartarus, one that will force her to make an impossible choice.

Brother Gavriel, a headstrong young Blood Angel, finds death and glory in equal measure amidst the ruins of the broken hive. With Imperial forces crumbling around them, the Angels of Death must fight their way to the dark heart of Armageddon on a merciless quest for revenge.

Facing annihilation, each of them must decide what their sacrifice will be worth.

Written by Jude Reid. Narrated by David Seddon, Emma Gregory and Nathaniel Priestley. Runtime 10 hours and 57 minutes approx.

Its three stories in the same warzone with some of the same characters.
Emma Gregory makes a formidable Sister of Battle - and great as a storyteller. Audible more of her please.

We meet orks, gretchen, guardsmen, sisters of battle, a space wolf rune priest and some blood angels. Not in quite the same way as most books present them.

Three stories

Armageddon is a straight-up battle story, told from three different perspectives, of the war around Hive Tartarus. I found the story a little confusing at times, but for the most part I enjoyed it - especially the third story of the Blood Angels sent to destroy the hive itself.

These tie-ins can be an awkward affair (neither Leviathan nor Skaventide were that good) but it was fun to “spot” some of the Ork vehicles being described. Armageddon doesn’t break any new ground, but it doesn’t have to.

Also, for fans of Space Marine 2, keep an eye out for the voice of Nathaniel Priestley in Part 3 - better known as Titus to the majority, his performance as the Blood Angels is excellent.

One of the better tie-in novels

For being the novel GW released in concert with 11th edition I was expecting more. Simple characters and the the most over used of character archetypes. Compared to Jude Reids other novels this was a slog to get through. Book struggles to get to grips with the size and scope of the r0k environments whilst missing out on the interesting characters. Feels like the lore gets back stage to fit a light story similar to Fulgrim the perfect son, shame as morvenn vahl and creed were so good.

Bland and leans into stereotyptical writing tropes

I liked the Space Wolf Rune Priest and it's nice to listen to a Ciaphus Cain narrator in newer books

Really good!
