Summary
A Uriel Ventris audiobook.
Exiled Ultramarines Uriel Ventris and Pasanius venture into the heart of the Iron Warriors’ fortress-world in search of atonement – but will they find anything but horror and death?
Listen to It Because
Explore the Iron Warriors' fortress world in the Eye of Terror through the eyes of exiled Ultramarines Uriel Ventris and Pasanius. Dark technology and even darker magic combine, and Ventris meets an enemy who'll haunt him for a long time to come.
The Story
Exiled from the Ultramarines Chapter by Marneus Calgar, Captain Uriel Ventris ventures deep into the dreaded Eye of Terror to atone for his disgrace. There, Uriel must unleash the Emperor's vengeance upon the followers of the Dark Gods and bring His divine light to this area of darkness. But a far more terrible foe dwells within these worlds of insanity: the ancient Chaos Space Marine Legions. With dishonour behind him and certain death ahead, Uriel must gather every ounce of courage if he is to survive and regain his honour!
Written by Graham McNeill. Narrated by Bruce Mackinnon.

Best Ventris book so far
Not only was the story better but the narrator had improved and this was very good, I like the Ventris books but they can be a bit too cliched, bringing in Daemons and Heretic Astartes took the emphasis off uriel and made the book a lot more interesting

Excellent
This was my favourite of the first three Uriel Ventris books , would recommend this to anyone who enjoys dark 40k audiobooks, and who enjoys renegade space marines. It is a unique story with great characters, particularly the main villain. I was never particularly interested in the Ultramarine books because I thought they would be bland, generic heroes, which I thought the first two books were a little bit, but this was throughly enjoyable.

Grimdark premise weighed down by flat characters
The great part about this book is the awful things the traitors are up to. But I struggle to recommend it because our protagonists are hard to engage with, feeling more like propaganda caricatures than people. Not to say they don't have some great character moments but they lack a bit of groundedness

Poor voices
Why does Pasanius sound like hobbit? This is the first audiobook I’ve not finished because of the poor quality of voices. I’ll read the hard copy to fully enjoy

Depicts the Iron Warriors well
It’s grim and dark. The story is well constructed. It accurately depicts Iron Warriors. It was refreshing to not just see cookie cutter characters. Instead they all have different motivations.

Blood for the blood god.
Great story. Well narrated. It helps to
read Nightbringer and warriors of ultramar before this. Cracking!

Terrible writing worse narration
This series is so poor it should be seen as an embarrassment for the whole Warhammer franchise. After slogging through the previous two books, I could not get past the first few chapters of this travesty. Perhaps a competent narrator could have added something to save the turgid writing but instead his over acting made this unbearable. Also the production and sound quality just does not seem up to the usual standard. Avoid.

Interesting gem of idea let down by poor writing..
I listened to this story based on a You Tube review (Thank you Leutin09!) and found it to be a tedious slog. The dialogue was abysmal; did the author read his material to sound it out? I don't think so. it had interesting gems, but thinly scattered in a muddled story. The main characters were lifeless, characatures of what perfect Space Marines should aspire to, and the motivational speeches were cringeworthy. In fact, the more I think about the story arc, the more faults I uncover. Best stop there then otherwise its going to be a 1-star book. Graham McNeil, what were you thinking? You're far better than this drivel...
