About this listen

A Primarchs Audiobook

Who better to relate the tale of Alpharius than the primarch himself? As he tells of his deeds, bear one thing in mind: nothing can be trusted when it comes from serpent's mouth.

Listen to it because:

I am Alpharius...and so are you.

The story:

Legends abound of the glorious - or infamous - deeds of the emperor's sons. Yet almost nothing is known of Alpharius, the most mysterious of them all, for the lord of the Alpha Legion is unparalleled in the art of obfuscation. Such are his gifts of secrecy and deceit that even his rediscovery has remained an enigma - until now. But when the tale comes from the serpent’s mouth, where do the lies end and the truth begin?

Written by Mike Brooks. Narrated by Jonathan Keeble.

5/5 would recommend to any HH fan or Alpha Legion fan in General!

This book did a great job explaining the origins of Alpharius and Omegon, it really brings a lot more life to their characters. I don’t want to spoil anything so I’ll leave it there.

A mystery backstory uncovered.

Story was just perfect. I feel like the author spent 3 days of breakfast, lunches and dinners with Dan Abnett. This is pretty good story. Highly recommend Legion as well.

I love the Alpha Legion

Absolutely loved this book. Always loved Alpha Legion Lore. Only down side is it is short at 5ish hours vs the other books I like at 10+ hours.

Highly recommend to every Warhammer fan.

Great Story!

I've always hated books on tape, mostly because I couldn't stand the narrators voice. This was my first that I listened too all at once. Very well done

First book on tape

This is a lie

Really, a fun book that turns some conventional 30k “facts” on their head in a believable way.
For the emperor.

This was fantastic! I have to admit that the primarch novels have been hit and miss when it came to quality but this one knocked it out of the park and the reveals were stunning! The layout and progression of the secrets that are explained in this story and the character choice with whom they were applied was awesome. Also the fact that the author incorporated so many details from another title showed a fantastic attention to detail not normally seen in multi-authored series. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Absolutely a joy to read!
