About this listen

A Warhammer 40,000 Audiobook

For too long the Emperor’s Children have been denied their birthright. Their once-glorious Legion has been fractured into disparate warbands, condemned to ravage world after futile world in the pursuit of ambition and excess. But no longer.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Fulgrim has a simple job for his sons, but what happens when it turns out to be far more complicated than it seems? Dive into the fractious nature of the Emperor's Children when things aren't quite going their way – rife with arrogance, internecine conflict, and divergent viewpoints.

THE STORY

Lord Fulgrim – ascended Primarch of the III Legion, the Perfect Son, the Emperor-in-Waiting – has issued a challenge to his scattered warriors: vanquish the Imperial world of Crucible, and bring him the head of the Black Templar charged with its defence.

But Fulgrim’s plans go far beyond the conquest of a single planet, and what should have been a swift and bloody offensive turns into a gruelling siege. With success uncertain, a world in flames around them, and the Legion turning their weapons inwards as well as out, the would-be champions are forced to confront a bitter truth. What must they sacrifice for victory and the favour of their Primarch, and what will be left of them when the war is over?

Meh.

It was ok. Sadly, the loyalist moments stood out far more than the emperors children once again. I wish they can give the chaos factions the respect they deserve. Every chaos books just turns into loyalist outshining them and it’s a tad frustrating.

Fulgrim was around far more than angron was for his book, but it was still too little. I was hoping for more of a fulgrim POV. The few scenes he DOES have are excellent.

Truly a black Templar book with an emperors children cover. Seeing as a grand majority of the book is showcasing just how strong the black templars are, and how dumb, weak, and pathetic the emperors children are.

Skip

Solid book if it wasn't paired with Fulgrims return. Zero Fulgrim point of view. Only interesting overarching storyline progression is a hint towards a loyalist primarch return...in the chaos primarch return book. Yikes.

It very quickly gives the reason for Fulgrim entering the Emperium

It was ok. Not as much of Fulgrim as I’d hoped. Used they/them pronouns for some characters for no reason.

This was pointless

Fulgrims return never had his point of view and it was just a war for a pointless planet. There was no extreme revelation or anything important despite being named after a primarch. Also spoiler for the ending Barrengar is the biggest moron ive ever seen for not killing Temaris TWICE and getting his sword back. Overall this book didnt need to happen or at the least never should of had Fulgrim

THIS BOOK IS A PARAGON OF THE PERFECT 3RD

the voice acting alone had me in ecstacy. Every time Fulgrim appeared he took stole the scene! The vibration of his voice truly feels as if you are feeling the full power of slaanesh feeling both amazing yet unsettling!!

Sadly a giant waste of time.

I’ve waited for this for a long time and nothing meaningful happened at all. This book would have been acceptable had it been setting up a bigger story, but it wasn’t. Honestly I am so disappointed.
