About this listen

A Warhammer Horror novel

Three travellers are drawn to the Reverie, the wound in the world of the Angels Resplendent. Knight, poet, scholar, each will face their shadows amidst a deeper darkness....

Listen to it because: Peter Fehervari's novels always have a rich vein of dark terror - now he's been unleashed in a Warhammer Horror novel that will take the sinister side of the 41st Millennium and turn it into nightmare fuel for you.

The story: exalting war and art in harmony, the warrior-artisans of the Angels Resplendent have forged a radiant haven amidst a blighted galaxy. But an ancient sin stains their honour - a wound in their world that will never heal. Ignorant souls would call it a forest, but those who watch over it know better.

Nothing natural grows in the Reverie’s snow-swept glades or wanders amongst the unnatural things that do, save for the intruders who trespass on its pain. Some seek revelation or redemption, others dream of winning a place amongst the Resplendent, but all come because they must.

Three travellers are drawn into the conspiracy that wards the wound - a knight haunted by his lost humanity, an aging poet who refuses to go gently into the night and a scholar who yearns to redeem mankind. All must face their shadows in the Reverie, but only one shall gaze upon its heart, where a deeper darkness beats.

Written by Peter Fehervari. Narrated by John Banks.

I think the WH universe in its entirety is a life or unlife of horror so how does an author tell a tale sold as horror? Not with this story sadly, a mediocre tale of artisan astartes more concerned with materiel possessions and dare I say it emotions than being an Angel of the Emperor, it’s a hide and seek story with very little to save it other than John Banks superlative narration

It's hard to describe how wild this book is. I'm familiar with the author's Dark Coil series but I wasn't sure what to expect from this novel. The nearest black library novel I could compare it to would be Fulgrim, it has that same sense of indulgence and corruption that the space marine psyche cannot handle.
Exceptionally written, and performed, with a plot and narrative crammed with detailed world-building.

A wild, imaginative maze

If you are like me and tired of regular space marines this is a fantastic little Warhammer horror and a real expression of what that off shoot of black library can be. Really impressive and I really recommend it

An excellent psychological thriller - with space marines!

It's like reading a dream. Definitely one of the most interesting and evocative 40k books I've read. The atmosphere of the book is spellbinding. Highly recommended.

Engaging, illusive and intriguing

I really enjoyed the vagueness and cryptic nature of some passages. Those texts brim with potential
probably worth a second listen
