Publisher's summary

A Warhammer 40,000 Audiobook

The crew of the Baneblade Mars Triumphant wage bitter war against the orks for the fate of the Kalidar system – but old rivalries threaten to doom them all.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

It's fast-paced, hard-hitting action based around one of the mightiest battle tanks in the galaxy – and Guy Haley does a fantastic job with not only the crew of the Baneblade, but their ork enemies too, making this a fascinating look at battle from both sides.

THE STORY

By the blessing of the Omnissiah was the Mars Triumphant born – from the forges of the Adeptus Mechanicus, the mighty Baneblade super-heavy battle tank comes to bring death and destruction to the foes of the Imperium. As part of the Paragonian 7th Company, Honoured Lieutenant Marken Cortein Lo Bannick commands the venerable war machine in a bitter war against the orks in the Kalidar system. As the campaign grinds on it begins to take its toll upon his crew, and old clan prejudices from the regiment's home world arise once more. In a war which cannot be won by force of arms alone, such division may prove to be their undoing.

Expected more Baneblade

For a book named for the tank, I expected a lot more Baneblade than the nook actually gave me. there are only a few parts in the book containing action from inside the tank. Most of what the protagonist does and sees during the book is outside his tank. The culmination of the protagonists backstory was underwhelming and makes you wonder if there was any even fault in his "dishonor" at all. Longworth is impressive as always, no issues with narration.

Long Live Cortein's Honor!

This book came out of nowhere for me and immediately commanded my full attention for the last two days. I blazed through this faster than most 40k books, and I can't recommend it enough for fans of the Guard, or for fans of the mighty Baneblade - it should be on every tank fan's shelf! I can't wait for the next book (Shadowsword) to get it's audiobook version to continue the tale, and follow up on the survivors of the events of this book. Thoroughly enjoyable through and through, Toby Longworth in particular delivers his usual standout performance and brings multiple engaging characters to life, including the full human, and Ork cast! This book was well worth the price of purchase, and I see myself returning for repeat listens in the future!

Best Voice Actor for WH40k Novels

Story was fantastic, No woke nonsense or ham-fisted preaching at me. Just a story about a bunch of lads surviving in a massive tank.
While a backstory is told in a pulp fiction style jumping around, also a refreshing take you don’t see in writing too often.
Would highly recommend for someone wanting to get their first Warhammer novel.

Story is great

Reading is great, but sometimes hard to understand due to accent imitation (unless you’re scotch of course 🙂)

Misleading title

This book should have been titled "Quick Dust", or "Witch of the Bloodaxe". Baneblade action is in short supply.
