About this listen

A Ferren Areios Audiobook

The Khorsari Reach has been lost to the Imperium for over a decade, locked behind the warp storms that cling to the edges of the Great Rift. Its worlds have been claimed by the Death Guard, its people slaughtered by the servants of the Plague God. But these are the worlds of Ultramar, and they are protected.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE
We first met Ferron Areios in the epic Dawn of Fire series. Now he's ascended to the rank of Captain of the Ultramarines Sixth Company, earning the title Master of Rites. Now he must face his most challenging task to date – taking on the Death Guard in a grinding war where little glory can be found. Honour demands that this task must be undertaken, and who better to lead than the Master of Rites?

THE STORY
Ferren Areios, Captain of the Ultramarines Sixth Company, has been dispatched to retake the worlds of the Reach and cleanse them of the Death Guard’s corruption. As the Plague Marines dig in and the death toll rises to catastrophic heights, Ferren is pushed to the limits of his Chapter’s creed. Isolated in the Plague God’s domain, the reclamation fleet fights not only for the worlds of the Reach, but for what remains of Ferren’s own humanity.

Written by Rob Young. Narrated by John Banks. Runtime 9 hours and 7 minutes approx.
