About this listen

A Grey Knights Novel

Two aspirants are recruited into the Grey Knights, and must hone their psychic talents if they are to join the hallowed and mysterious ranks of the Space Marine daemon hunters.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

It's a deep exploration of the Grey Knights and the events surrounding the First Armageddon War... including an appearance by the fearsome Angron, daemon primarch of the World Eaters.

THE STORY

The Grey Knights are all that stands between humanity and the ravages of Chaos. Since their secretive beginnings during the Horus Heresy, these legendary Space Marine daemon hunters have journeyed into the dark realms of the warp – and beyond – in pursuit of their supernatural enemies. Through an intensive regime of psychic training, new recruits are brought to the clandestine fortress of Titan to join the hallowed and vaunted ranks of the 666th Chapter.

More than ever, these legendary battle-brothers must be vigilant and ever ready to defend the Imperium – for the forces of Chaos are never truly defeated, and Armageddon beckons.

Written by Aaron Dembski-Bowden. Narrated by Christopher Kent. Running time 12 hours, 28 minutes (approx).

Half the book is essentially build up and character building and I didn’t even realise how long that went on for because it was that good.
But that was nothing compared to the great 2nd act!

So very very good

This has to be one of my favourite 40 K stories, covering affection of lore that will hopefully one day be expanded upon with a sequel

One of the best 40k novels ever written

It was worth it though I’d have preferred Jonathan Keeble to voice act, or one of the more regular and talented VC’s

I’ve waited for this for many many years

The grey knights stand off against everything from Demon's, a Primarch, The Emperors executioners and their own reasons for beign.
Great story, great speak, really liked it:)

The Grey Knights dilemma

I've liked the Grey Knights in 40k for a long time and when I saw this book I got it without reading the blurb. The book was well written and read well but the story was a let down for me. You kind of got to see a bit of the behind workings of the Grey Knghts but most of the book. The main enemy wasn't even chaos. Quite a let down and showed the GN in a bad lapdog kinda light rather that protective.

oh... not what I expected.

This was a great read, well performed and structured . Nothing ground breaking but the scale of ranks and power levels are well done when the fighting happens and when it doesn't the right level of drama is enacted. No good guys here only grey (pardon the pun).

The Grey Knights even have to chill out sometimes

One of my personal favorites. this book made me understand and apriciate those dudes from Titan. and like wolf's even more. First part of the book was kinda mid but following half telling the story of Months of shame is god tier.

Gray kings have it rough
