About this listen

A Death Korps Audiobook

The 401st Regiment has been sent to Oleris III to find an inquisitor among the catacombs of a planet decimated by a plague in years past. What they find will shake their legendary resolve. This collection also includes a short story that gives us an outsider's perspective on the Death Korps of Krieg.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

The Death Korps of Krieg are a fan favourite – their grinding way of war makes for stories unlike anything else we see in the Astra Militarum. This time, we have a hero's perspective in Colonel Graven, who will do anything to complete his objective, no matter what sacrifices he has to make.

THE STORY

Five hundred years ago, Oleris III was ravaged by a Chaos plague. Now it is a world of tombs and catacombs. It belongs to the dead. Colonel Graven and his 401st Krieg Regiment are charged with searching for a missing inquisitor in the bone-filled ossuary tunnels beneath the planet. But the dead are stirring, and down in the labyrinthine darkness, his kill team comes face to face with unspeakable horrors.

As whispering spectres seed fear and suspicion, turning allies into foes, the colonel has ghosts of his own to battle. Haunted by a tragedy of his own making and unable to trust anyone, even the most resolute Death Korpsman might start to doubt himself. But on this world, it could be the death of him.

Written by Steve Lyons. Narrated by Timothy Watson. Runtime 10 hours and 13 minutes approx.
