About this listen

A Thousand Sons Audiobook

The greatest sorcerer of the Thousand Sons has finally found the relic he's been searching for – the Key of Infinity. But is it too late for him to use it?

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

One of the most enduring character arcs in all of Warhammer 40,000 approaches the verge of closure... but nothing is ever that simple. Ahriman has achieved much and gathered incredible power – will he be able to realise that it's come at the cost of everything he once fought for?

THE STORY

Ahriman languishes on the threshold of space and time, adrift in a sub-realm of unknowable dimension and aspect. He has found it at long last: the ancient device known to the necrons as the Key of Infinity. This should be his moment of triumph – but he is not the Ahriman he used to be. Betrayed and lost, he is a solitary sorcerer, bereft of allies, standing amongst the smashed and ruined ephemera of his grand designs.

With his dreams as dust and his Legion consumed by the fires of the Pyrodomon, Ahriman must fight his way across the shattered remnants of his past if he is to have any hope of saving his future.

Imagine it. Heat...at first just a tickle on the awareness. Then blinding. All encompassing.

An amazing and at times frustrating read. It was only frustrating because I wasn't expecting certain things but I am glad I stuck with the book.
The performance helped immensely. I truly feel like the author did great job.

Tough One

First and foremost it's not a pleasant read, it's winding and retreads ground and nothing matters. This is all very clearly intentional though. The reader and the solitaire are the only ones who can truly know or learn anything. Time manipulation is not my favorite thing. I appreciate that it's not treated as a be/all, end/all solution here. 40k has no magic solve the universe lever to pull. Despite the frustration I felt at times, I'd recommend this to anyone who loves Ahriman.

Great Book!

So this was pretty cool Audible released the book too early. I got it and listened to it before they could unlist it.

everything Old is New again.

Ahriman is the best "I am the center of existence" side character ever written. He is not arrogant, he is bored out of his mind.

Skip the last 2 books

This book was written to undo the last book. No actual plot development. If you’re just starting this series skip this book and the previous.
Tbh this series is endless fetch quests that just make everything worse.

skip this one

Honestly a disappointing story. It reads like a bad heist movie, with out of time side bars instead of any meaningful plot. The whole purpose of the story seems to be to undo the terrible previous book in the series. In the end, this story has no real point or purpose
