Publisher's summary

Winner of the Readers' Choice Poll.

Hell has come to Hydra Cordatus. A massive force of terrifying Iron Warriors have invaded the planet and laid siege to its mighty Imperial citadel. Can the defenders hold out? And just what do these ancient traitors want with such a seemingly insignificant world?

Listen to it because....

It's one of the true Black Library classics, and one of the first novels to make the bad guys the heroes...and it introduced the mighty Warsmith Honsou, who went on to plague the Ultramarines across plenty of novels. It also pits the Iron Warriors against their oldest foes, the Imperial Fists, which is always a guarantee of quality action.

The story:

On the nightmare battlefields of the far future, few foes spark more fear and dread than the Chaos Space Marines. Nurturing a hatred that is millennia-old, they attack without mercy, spreading terror and destruction in their wake. Now hell has come to Hydra Cordatus, for a massive force of terrifying Iron Warriors, the brutal assault masters of Chaos, have invaded the planet and lain siege to its mighty Imperial citadel. But what prize could possibly be worth so much savage bloodshed and destruction—and how long can the defenders possibly hold out?

Written by Graham McNeill. Narrated by Michael Geary. Approximate running time 11 hours and 4 minutes.

Brutal

This is probably one of the more brutal 40K books I’ve read that isn’t about the night lords. Though initially slow it’s slow for a reason it’s a siege on a massive fortress with lots of character moments for the human characters of course in particular Hawke, Leonid, and Lorana Utorian. But the astartes characters are great in particular Honsou.

Iron within! Iron without!

I have read this book so many times my original copy disintegrated. I'm so happy to finally have an audio book version. I can't recommend this book enough. Especially to anyone who likes chaos. while chaos characters in this book are my favorite, I really did like the imperial characters as well. Hands down my favorite 40k book and the reason I play Iron Warriors on the table top.

Pretty great read for me, though I may be biased

Worth the time if your an Iron Warriors fan. Personal favorite for me, with some minor dark humor gems in that I found to be great 👍

Quintessential 40k

I could hardly stop listening once this started.

Action packed. Full of hope and loss, triumph and tragedy. You will root for villains and heroes alike. Grimdark and magnificent.

40k isn't written like this, anymore.

1 of my 1st of 300+

The since of nostalgia was real for me. This was my first real insight into chaos marines. I was enraptured then as I am today. It makes you want to listen to every novel Honsou is in and you won’t be disappointed he’s a brilliant villain. He even makes listen/reading Ultramarines palatable. It’s a shame we only get the 1 audiobook.

Great read with a weird end

Loved the whole book, except the end. Still very worth the listen for backstory on the infamous Honsou. I loved the insight into Iron Warriors battle tactics. and and infamous Imperator Titan makes a huge appearance! Only the end kept it from being a 5 star. it felt like it wrapped up too quickly.

One of the best books out there

one of the best books out there and I've read 100s. With an avatar of khon, demon prince, and the two best siege -attacking and defending forces of 40k going head to head- killing thousands on both sides, what more can you want, please make this into a movie!!!!!!

The best in a bad kind of way

I could not make up my mind and then I took a chance and it turned out to be the best Choice a perfect balance of The mechanics the soldiers The character hawk is this from gods of Mars And a sprinkle of chaos whenever I got bored It changed gears on me just at the right time perfect I'm going to Immediately listen to It againI would say this is definitely a listen that you can go back to and not be bored
