Publisher's summary

An Astra Militarum Audiobook

On a planet trapped in the closing jaws of the Great Devourer, Major Wulf Khan of the Catachan 903rd receives a final, desperate mission – one which will take her soldiers into the maw of the tyranid threat.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

It’s a chance to see the Catachan Jungle Fighters in action on a planet almost as deadly as their homeworld. Dive into their gripping battle for survival as they face a voracious force of invading tyranids.

THE STORY

Lazulai is a world beyond the brink, its battle against the tyranids all but lost. Once-magnificent cities lie in ruin. The seas boil. The skies crack. Horrific alien bioforms devour. In mere days the planet will be consumed.

The 903rd Catachan ‘Night Shrikes’ defend one of the last fortresses still standing. Led by Major Wulf Khan, to die fighting is all that is expected of them… until she is given one last mission: to lead a squad through the apocalypse and recover a piece of archeotech that may doom or deliver the entire Lazulai System.

Facing impossible odds and zero hope for aid, the major must hold her squad together as they pick their way through an endless xenos jungle. The enemy is merciless, relentless, endlessly adaptable and formidably resourceful... but so too is Khan.

On the edge of my seat

What a fantastic classic action style book in the 40 K universe. Every moment of the book has me guessing on what’s gonna happen next in this action-packed story with the Catachans and other imperial forces. The perfect grimdark look on humanity’s view and a better understanding of the Catachans. An absolute 12/10 and I would highly recommend for anyone wanting a highly emotional and gripping adventure.

Victory Against Tyranids?

A story where a team of Catachans must work with a Cadian, a Martian Magos and a Genestealer Cult Member in order to save (?) the dying world they are on. They must March for days to reach their goal, through a world in the final stages of a Tyranid Invasion. Can they do it? Will they save the world? Will we hear Catachan Poetry?

Badass women

Now I know what people are going to moan about “90% of the cast are women! However, if you changed the word ‘she’ to ‘he’ you would not tell the difference.
Well rounded characters, compelling storyline and the narrator knocks it well out of the park!
Worth a read if you don’t have a problem with strong when characters.

A Refreshing Must Read

Victoria Hayward masterfully delivers an action packed, compelling plot, driven by some outstanding characters. Not only are the Catachans given some much needed spotlight (and depth), but the reader is also treated to the delightful nightmares following a Tyranid invasion. It's Jumanji meets Aliens, with exceptionally well written characters. It's enjoyable for any reader, but especially fun if you like Tyranids, Genestealers or the Guard 😈
