About this listen

An Astra Militarum Audiobook

On a planet trapped in the closing jaws of the Great Devourer, Major Wulf Khan of the Catachan 903rd receives a final, desperate mission – one which will take her soldiers into the maw of the tyranid threat.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

It’s a chance to see the Catachan Jungle Fighters in action on a planet almost as deadly as their homeworld. Dive into their gripping battle for survival as they face a voracious force of invading tyranids.

THE STORY

Lazulai is a world beyond the brink, its battle against the tyranids all but lost. Once-magnificent cities lie in ruin. The seas boil. The skies crack. Horrific alien bioforms devour. In mere days the planet will be consumed.

The 903rd Catachan ‘Night Shrikes’ defend one of the last fortresses still standing. Led by Major Wulf Khan, to die fighting is all that is expected of them… until she is given one last mission: to lead a squad through the apocalypse and recover a piece of archeotech that may doom or deliver the entire Lazulai System.

Facing impossible odds and zero hope for aid, the major must hold her squad together as they pick their way through an endless xenos jungle. The enemy is merciless, relentless, endlessly adaptable and formidably resourceful... but so too is Khan.

I thoroughly enjoyed this! as a hard core Cadian collector and novel reader(listener?) I loved this insight into the Catachan from the perspective of the team in this thrilling novel.

Working through the stereotypes and cementing the Catachan as truly honorable soldiers with a good respect for their other war fighters. The first gut punch for me was "Cadia Stands". They didn't stop coming.

The horror tone was perfect. It perfectly echoed the fear I felt reading the first White Dwarf I remember about Tyranids, the death of a world being eaten alive in all its micro and macro terror.

The comedic aspects we're very well done. I remember the Sly Marbo and real world analogue jokes being told in the Troop offices!

I hope we hear more from the survivors in the future!

ok ignore the Tyranids acting weird as it was they only really way to get an exploration of the end game of an invasion.

Story was average guard affairs with good banter with the catachans, setup could have had a better explanation but works based on the starting scenario.

also interesting to see what genstealer cults do after ascension, it's pretty much as bleak as you expected in 40k

Nice look at Catachan poking fun of cadians

Catachans are the Rambo's and Dutch's of 40k and yet this novel humanised them in a way I wasn't expecting.
Superbly voice acted and well written.

Fantastically voice acted.

I have read Warhammer horror, crime, space marines etc but never romance, platonic naturally, I really enjoyed this book, it enhanced my tyranids knowledge (thank you Victoria) it was a really good behind enemy lines saving the day type story with ROMANCE, Black Library please get Victoria Hayward to continue this tale with these characters, great narration too

Warhammer Romance! 😳
