About this listen
An Astra Militarum novel.
The hero of a series of short stories returns in her first full-length novel – and it's as grim, dark and brilliantly written as you'd expect from Rachel Harrison. Uncompromising and fierce, Commissar Severina Raine has always served the Imperium with the utmost distinction. Attached to the 11th Antari Rifles, she instills order and courage in the face of utter horror. The Chaos cult, the Sighted, have swept throughout the Bale Stars, and a shadow has fallen across its benighted worlds. A great campaign led by the vaunted hero Lord-General Militant Alar Serek is underway to free the system from tyranny and enslavement, but the price of victory must be paid in blood. But what secrets do the Sighted harbour, secrets that might cast a light onto Raine’s own troubled past? Only by embracing her duty and staying true to her belief in the Imperium and the commissar’s creed can she hope to survive this crucible, but even then will that be enough?

Slow to start, quick to finish

secondly the story starts by just dropping you straight in. it feels like the was a chapter missing but after the first battle you get a better lay of the land.
More importantly you get a better idea of whats going on with Rain. In the first chapter or so she comes across more like a charctour of the strickt heartless commissar. the kind Cain and gaunt look down on as trigger happy idiots with a life expectancy of a week. however by the credits shes a lot more enjoyable protagonist.
but i feel this overall slow start could put some off. Just stick with it. the is a good Astra millataram story in here with an intresting regement.
speaking of Cain as some one who has listened to all the cain books. dont go in expecting Rain to be anything like Ciaphas. she lacks his humour and is about as charming as a punch in the nadds. this doesnt mean shes unlikable though. shes just differnt. the only reason I say this is I see a lot of "If you like Cain or Gaunt youll like this." I cant speak to gaunts ghosts as im yet to start it.
As mentioned earlier the regement Sevarine Rain is attached to is fasinating and im almost tempted to track down some Temprstus Sions on ebay to do up a version of Fell and his Squad.
the one Thing I cant forgive though is this. the Chaos Cault in the book. the Sighted arnt very well explained at first.
in the first few chapters I had to check the wiki to see if it was a faction made for the book or an exsisting one. you cant just expect people to assume its a chaos faction especially when they have a lot of unique things to them.
what if its the listeners first 40k book. there just going to have to be confused for several chapters untill they finally spell it out. even then its not greate to assume your reader has loads of pre exsisting knoladge. although thats the only real problem I have. the rest of my critcism is mostly nitpicks by comparisen.
Enjoyable 40k book.
Would recommend somthing like for the Emperor though as a starting point before listening to this one if your new. as in a few places it feels like it expects you to know some stuff already.
if your more of a long time fan and just havent gotten to this one yet though it shouldnt give you any trouble.
hope this helped
Good story but a slugish start

The story itself is also very good and had me listening all the way through, the detail, again along with Nicolette's narration really brings this book to life.
I am really glad I picked this up though, I am now reading all the shorts which is well worth it if anyone else has found themselves a fan of the Antari 11th Rifles! I just wish Rachel would give more detail into their uniform so I can mirror this on some models! Grey and Green splinter fatigues... but what colour is their flak armour? matte black? the same as Fel's dusk hounds?! I would love to know more about their home planet too.
Very Very Good! Stick with it!
