Book Three in the Ahriman Series.

After many years and untold sacrifices, Ahriman is ready to attempt the unthinkable. Join him in this quest through time and space.

Read it because....

It's the third book of the quadrilogy, but because it’s Ahriman, anything goes. When his grand plan is revealed, the scale of it will blow you away—and that's before the return to not one but both of the Thousand Sons' home worlds, and huge battles as the Legion turns on itself and a certain prominent figure comes home....

The story:

It has taken many long years and countless sacrifices, but finally Ahriman, former Chief Librarian of the Thousand Sons, now exile and sorcerer, is ready to attempt the most audacious and daring feat of his long life. His quest for knowledge and power has all been for one purpose, and he would now see that purpose fulfilled. His goal? Nothing less than undoing his greatest failure and reversing the Rubric that damned his Legion....

Written by John French. Narrated by Mark Elstob. Running time (approx.) 10 hours 35 minutes.

One of the lines in the book talks about sacrifice for a ritual 64 individuals were used 1/3 were used because they were willing 1/3 did not go willing and 1/3 had no idea what was going on but 64/3 is not an even number so, one of them was both willing, not willing and had no clue what was happening?

I had the painful experience of listening to books 2, 3 and 4 back to back trying to absorb some story but the narrator is just awful (again). I really hope they rerecord this like they did Dawn of Fire. I had no idea what's going on. Will reread the hard copies. Just do the hard copies.

Narrator tanks this series.

this story suffers the same issues as the previous books of this series that have the same voice actor. Strange or out of place voices to what is expected. The perspective changes are similar to the previous books but are a bit easier to follow than the second book.

Spoilerish
Ahriman once again goes on a crazy journey and is forced back to step on similar to some of the other books. I did expect more to have happened but most of the book was either needlessly confusing or took to long to make sense but that makes sense when dealing with the legion of the changer of ways.

Good Story, Mid VA, Okay overall

the story is slow going, but the end is great.
my biggest issue is the narration, as most characters sound whiney and childish.

slow

Top notch story. Much like other Warhammer stories there are just so many male characters the narrator can't make them all unique. And I know that's the case because female characters distinct and daemons pretty darn distinct. Great job considering

Once again I loved it

Would love to see some of the characters from these pages come to life on the tabletop one day. Would preorder Ignis, Ctestias, and Gaumata in a heartbeat!

Amazing story with tons of tzeentchian twists

Love the series but the lead to the climax in this one felt drawn out.

Great end slow start

I loved the book. Some people take issue with it being "boring" but it was a slow burn of excitement for me. There is a lot of back and forth stories going on at the same time which works well. Keep in mind that this book is about Ahriman...the strongest psyker of the Thousand Sons, and not some khornate berserker. This means he is playing chess in his stories, so don't expect Red Dead Revolver type action.

The narrator was awesome as usual, I love his voices and cadence.

A great look into the first major attempt by Ahriman to reverse the effects of the Rubric.
