About this listen

Book one in the Bequin series.

Listen to it because:

It's an intriguing and evocative story that shows characters you know and love through new (yet strangely familiar) eyes, forging a stunning mystery that will leave you astonished.

The story:

In the city of Queen Mab, nothing is quite as it seems. Pariah, spy and Inquisitorial agent Alizebeth Bequin is all of these things and yet none of them. An enigma, even to herself, she is caught between Inquisitors Gregor Eisenhorn and Gideon Ravenor, former allies now enemies who are playing a shadow game against a mysterious and deadly foe. Coveted by the archenemy, pursued by the Inquisition, Bequin becomes embroiled in a dark plot of which she knows not her role or purpose. Helped by a disparate group of allies, she must unravel the secrets of her life and past if she is to survive a coming battle in which the line between friends and foes is fatally blurred.

I actually struggled the first time I read this and the precursor, pariah in hardback - but on audible, I ate both up and found the performance really engaging.

built the world in its acting as much as Dan abnetts words, and I can't wait for the next one

outstanding

First of all i am not a huge fan of Warhammer. Like some 40k books but that is it. I tried some and hated them but this one soo captivating.
I love the pace, the characters, the mystery and the story. No clear cut good side and so many unknows but presented in a good manner, you do not feel overwhelmed.
Cannot wait to start the next book in the series!

It got me hooked!

Enjoyable seeing the beginnings of a conclusion to the Eisenhorn and Ravenor stories. The narration somewhat spoiled it for me though. The voice was perfect for the titular character, but really didn’t work for the men in the story. Especially the traitor marines.

Intriguing story
