About this listen

An Alpha Legion Novel

The leader of an Alpha Legion warband continues the Long War against the Imperium of Mankind, while harbouring the ambition to become the Harrowmaster and unite his Legion.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

See the Alpha Legion in the wake of the Great Rift, as they face the power of the Primaris Space Marines of the Indomitus Crusade.

THE STORY

The Alpha Legion are devious beyond measure, but deceit is a double-edged sword. As the Indomitus Crusade pushes into the far reaches of the Ultima Segmentum, the warband known as the Serpent's Teeth encounter the fearsome Primaris Marines, and the Alpha Legion is faced with a choice – fade into the shadows, or adapt and strike back.

Solomon Akurra, leader of the Teeth, intends to claim the title of Harrowmaster and bind together the feuding heads of the hydra that make up his Legion. His allies are disparate and unproven, and his enemies march with the might of the Imperium at their back. Much is not as it seems, and the odds are stacked against the sons of Alpharius… but Solomon is armed with a weapon the Imperium cannot ignore – the truth.

Written by Mike Brooks. Read by Theo Solomon. Running time is 11 hours and 49 minutes (approx).

The narrator had a high pitch and annoying delivery. The story was a bit meandering.

We’ll sort of, a lot of good things about this book, seeing the different factions in the alpha legion including details on recruiting and potential going forward, the narration is just awful, I am sure Theo Solomon is quite good at certain genres, possibly children’s books but he is not good at Grimdark and in particular Warhammer, at times I had to stop listening to prevent my brain rebelling

I'll be honest, the voice actor didn't sell me at first, but once I got into it I really liked him.

As for the story, it's the Alpha Legion being as trick and cunning at their very best. It always felt like a valid deception, and not simply for moustache twirling purposes.

The main characters were enjoyable, and fit their roles well.

This felt like a genuine Alpha Legion story, filled with twists and turns and betrayals for one of the lesser loved traitor legions (minis when GW?)

I especially loved the full spectrum of loyalist to fully chaotic alpha marine warbands that were represented.

Alpha Legion being cunning and tricky

The narration was not that bad, although the voices used to portray space marines were in some cases ridiculous. the general narration and human characters were great.

The main problem with this book is the utter lack of any sort of drama. the Alpha legion appear to be the most effective force the galaxy has ever seen. nothing the loyalists do even comes close to inconveniencing them. even when what appears to be a meaningful trap is sprung on them a little quick thinking brings any excitement to a stop.

even the Primarch of the Dark Angles in the latest books has his ribs broken by a pack of terminators, or nearly possessed by a sorccoror its exciting drama packed despite how powerful the character is, but here.... I'll put it this way the characters in this book could take Terra and kill the emperor without loosing a single man.

despite them coming up against the new primaris marines they offer no resistance to the Alpha legion resulting in the loyalists attempting a suicide mission to cause as much damage as possable that literally causes zero damage I could not even finish the last hour ofnthe book.

No Drama
