A Necrons Audiobook

Trazyn the Infinite and Orikan the Diviner return, continuing their rivalry for better or worse. Fate has given them a gift – an ancient world from the necrons' past has returned, but uncovering its secrets may prove more difficult than they anticipated.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

It's another chance to see the scintillating relationship between these two luminaries of the necron race, and another glimpse into their unique view of time and the upstarts that populate the galaxy.

THE STORY

Trazyn the Infinite and Orikan the Diviner hate each other. Orikan is a master astromancer, not content with merely observing the future when the opportunity to shape it is within his grasp. Trazyn is an egotistical historian and meddler, stealing people and events out of the present to forever preserve them in his gallery. Their feud has lasted millennia, destroyed worlds, and defined their immortality.

When the opening of the Great Rift delivers a mysterious world from the necrons' past back into realspace, Trazyn sees an opportunity – this is his chance to not only mend his quarrel with the embittered Orikan, but to uncover the fate of the last expedition to the Chaos-corrupted planet of Amenthis. What horrors of the past will they unearth in its depths, and what will their discoveries mean for their future?

Written by Robert Rath. Narrated by Richard Reed. Runtime 13 hours and 24 minutes approx.

After roughly 84 Warhammer 40,000 audiobooks, I can honestly say that this is one of the absolute best I’ve ever experienced—and quite possibly my favourite.

Robert Rath has somehow managed to take everything that made the first book so damn good and make it even better.

And Mr. Reed returning to narrate it? Exceptional. His voice acting brings these characters to life in a way that makes this audiobook an absolute joy to listen to. The sheer pettiness between our two protagonists is brilliantly written and genuinely hilarious. Their interactions alone make this book worth listening to.

This is Warhammer at its best: fantastic characters, sharp writing, humour, and a story that genuinely understands what makes this universe so special. I found myself not wanting it to end.

Mr. Robert Rath, you are one hell of an author. You clearly understand this universe and, more importantly, you understand the characters and what makes them so entertaining.

After experiencing this many Warhammer books, I don’t say this lightly: this belongs at the very top of the list.

If you’re a Warhammer fan, buy this book. Seriously.

I’ll be buying the hardback too. Some books deserve a permanent place on the shelf.

Thank you, Mr. Rath, for one hell of a book.

Breathtaking!

Phenomenal sequal
