About this listen

A Space Wolves Novel

Sent to defend an important shrine world against the plague-ridden Death Guard, the Space Wolves clash with pious allies who see them as little better than the enemy they fight.

Liston to it because....

It's a fresh look at the Space Wolves, focusing on pack dynamics and their relationship with the wider Imperium—plus, of course, plenty of savage action!

The story:

The feral warrior-kings of Fenris, the Space Wolves are the sons of Leman Russ. Savage heroes, few can match their ferocity in battle.

After half a century apart, Space Wolves Ingvar and Gunnlaugr are reunited. Sent to defend an important shrine world from the plague-ridden Death Guard, the Grey Hunters clash with the pious Sisters of Battle—who see the Space Wolves as little better than the enemy they fight. As enemies close in around them and treachery is revealed, Gunnlaugr and his warriors must hold the defenders together—even as hidden tensions threaten to tear their pack apart.

Written by Chris Wraight. Narrated by Andrew James Spooner. Run time approx. 13 hours 39 mins.

Great story

The story here is great, Chris really captures the wolves, however I almost stopped listening to this and picked up the physical copy because the narrator is terrible, slow paced reading, every character has the same voice, very little emotion put into it and half the time he sounded bored, ended up putting it on 1.7 speed just so he was reading it at a normal pace.

Great story, poor narrator

I was looking for a decent Wolves story and stumbled across this. I never expected it to be this good. A strong 9/10

Legendary story and stunning narration!

I love the space wolves and they were great in this book, extremely interesting and all very unique, loved their dynamics between each other too especially with how each one of them seemed to have some sort of story line of their own (the two main ones having the most interesting relationship). This was my first real exposure to the sisters of battle as an important part of a story and they were about what I expected on the surface, but way more interesting when actually explored deeper, though I still can’t say I am particularly a big fan even if the two main sisters were great. Also, the underlying tension and secrecy throughout the story was interesting to follow, though at times it felt more annoying than anything.

The story is great, Chris Wraight understands the Space Wolves to a level not achieved by many.

But the audio itself: brilliant. Clear enunciations but Holy Emperor, the accents between characters is brilliant. I’d read the first half of the book before restarting with the audiobook in order to move through it at work and it changed the experience so much, for the better!

Voice work is amazing!
