About this listen

Audiobook 1 of the Dark Imperium trilogy.

The first phase of the Indomitus Crusade is over, and the conquering primarch, Roboute Guilliman, sets his sights on home. The hordes of his traitorous brother, Mortarion, march on Ultramar, and only Guilliman can hope to thwart their schemes with his Primaris Space Marine armies.

Listen to It Because

Experience the beginning of the Plague Wars, as the Imperium's lord regent fights to reclaim his home from the Death Guard and their daemonic allies.

The Story

Fell times have come to the galaxy. Cadia has fallen, destroyed by the onslaught of Chaos. A Great Rift in the warp has opened, and from its depths spew daemons and the horrors of Old Night.

But all hope is not lost… A hero, long absent, has returned, and with him comes the wrath of the Ultramarines reborn. Roboute Guilliman has arisen to lead the Imperium out of darkness on a crusade the likes of which has not been seen since the fabled days of the Emperor.

But never before have the forces of Ruin amassed in such numbers, and nowhere is safe from despoliation. From the dreaded Scourge Stars come the hordes of the Plaguefather, Lord Nurgle, and their pustulent eye is fixed on Macragge. As the Indomitus Crusade rages on, Guilliman races to Ultramar and a confrontation with the Death Guard.

Written by Guy Haley. Narrated by John Banks.

Story was OK, you could sum it up in a paragraph though.
High detail descriptions of everything 40k as you expect from Guy.

Naration is good, but I'd say his range of character voices is a bit limited.

Not bad, but not the great.

The storey is great always live when the imperium kicks butt against chaos, as too long we have been on the back foot, aswell as John bank's narration this listen is well worth the money 💰 this is my 3rd listen to this series and it still is amazing to my ears. John Banks should definitely narrate more wh40k novels!!!!

Great listen!!!

Guy haley never dissapoints. A good look into the character of Guilliman and the state of the modern imperium. The first of hopefully 3 great books.

To keep it as brief and spoiler free as possible, it puts into perspective the very human elements of the Primarch and the Astartes that exist even in demi-gods. The more dreadful elements are those that you can see as a forgone conclusion but the ride there is just filled with this sort of heavy feeling in ones gut that Guy Haley nails.

Fantastic Narration, and the story is touchingly human.
