Summary
In the age of the Dark Imperium, Primarch Guilliman’s Primaris Ultramarines are a shining beacon in the darkness of war.
On the Imperial Hive World of Ikara IX, Chaplain Kastor and Apothecary Polixis, brothers in blood as well as in battle, stand firm against the endless Greenskin horde. But a threat is looming. An invasion like no other assaults the broken city of Shebat, as the crazed warlord Urgork arrives to lay waste to the Imperial forces and capture a Primaris Marine for his own twisted ends.
As Kastor and Polixis find themselves separated by the disaster that unfolds, the brothers must turn the tide of war to win the battles that rage within their very natures, as well as those upon the battlefield.

Amazing
One hell of a book, john banks once again narrates perfectly, plenty of different voices all so suiting to their respective characters and as always he brings the feelings and the action to life.
The story itself is so good you get to hear of feelings from the space marines which make them more than just objects of war, you will burst out laughing at some of the antics from the orkz, almost cry from some of the adeptus scenes and also stand tall and proud (if you are a adeptus fanboy) from some of the scenes.
Plenty of action, back story and edge of the seat wanting more moments. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a good listen and a old school (with new marines) bout between xenos scum and umiez

Unique look at an Ork V Ultramarine war.
A more unique look at the Brotherhood of Space Marines, as well as some interesting Ork perspectives.

Ork fun
Superb narration by John Banks including my first listening to him narrating the ork perspective which was hilarious, I would love a full book told from their viewpoint and voiced by Mr Banks, the space marines chapters were good and gave some indication that maybe and just that maybe they have more emotions than previously seen, overall a pretty good book

Excellent
Good view of new primaris units. Also, it was very refreshing to see chapters written from the ork perspective. Excellent narration, would definitely recommend this audio book.

Heartfelt and can't fault it!
Solid standalone story featuring Kastor and Pollixis, obviously there are some parallels to the Greek mythology of Castor and Pollux but the story is not the same at all.
Guard and Ork entries in the story made for varied and enjoyable listening!

Surprisingly excellent
I've just finished the Nightlords trilogy and was riding on a high of Traitor Legions and a darker type of book.
Blood of Iax is a really good book, Kept me engaged from the start.
I feel there needs to more books on the Ork point of view, The few chapters of dedicated to the Orks were the best in the book. John Banks was outstanding in the narration. Orks love if WAAA and sound like they are from inner city London with similar education as if it all just a bit of fun.

Would be better if the Orks had been protagonists
Should of been about the Orks, the book shows the problem of them being way better protagonists than "Da Bekkies"
