About this listen

As the Horus Heresy rages and the death toll rises, one more will be added to the numberless dead: Sibel Niasta, personal astropath to the First Lord of the Imperium, Malcador the Sigillite. As her end approaches, Malcador sits vigil by her bedside, and the pair discuss their friendship and what it means - how the past and present have shaped Malcador and the Imperium, and what the future holds.

Unparalleled quality of voice acting and the insights contained in this piece outpace multiple books on the 30k universe - definitely worth the listen!

Just WOW

A bargain price for an awesome wee snippet of background. Having listened to it, I would happily have paid twice the price.

Enlightening piece Horus Heresy background.

hands down the best performance/story in the HH series. To hear plots confirmed that had long been speculative is amazing

It is very difficult to write a review without spoilers. All I can say is, that whilst this audio drama is quite short and you may be hesitant to spend a credit or £3.50 on it, it is extraordinarily well voice acted, has one of the most dynamic and appropriate sound tracks of any audio book that I have encountered, and the story (even for a person like myself with only a passing interest in the Warhammer 40k universe), is incredibly engaging with a startling revelation.
You won’t regret your purchase.

Well worth buying even though it’s less than 30minutes long!

absolutely loved this, I was reccomended this book by Luetin09 on YouTube, and I'm so glad I was. As a 30k player I love the lore of the Verse, and this short "book" is an amazing insight into the plans the Emperor and Malcador had for the Pimarchs and the Imperium as a whole.

I have recommended this book to all of my 30k friends too!

Fantastically Insightful!

Bought this after listening to Luetin commenting on it in YouTube. This really is an essential story to listen to if you want to understand the relationships between Malcador, the Emperor and his Primarchs. So much information and so many great performances crammed into 24 minutes. Highly recommended!

Brilliant and vital

short story. more dialog and more reveals/expansion would of been welcomed, but the story gives great insight to the primarks creation and rebellion.
in fact it has a massive reveal that changes the outlook of the entire imperium and the primarks role in it. I'm actually surprised the reveal has been sort of relegated to a short story tbh.

worth a read for it.

great insight to the primarks creation

Hints at things to come. The voice acting is brilliant as always. I wish the background music was available.
